Okay, you guys, we gotta have a talk. I was trying not to say this (and I can't think of a better way to say it without coming off like a complete bitch, so let me apologize for that in advance), but I can't blame y'all for doing something if I haven't said that I don't want you to. If you want (or don't want) something, you have to put it out

Eeep! :/

*hugs you*

Okay, that icon is freaking adorable.

[syvia]

Thank you. ^^ A friend of mine did it and she is awesome~.

That makes perfect sense, and it shouldn't make anyone stop reading or wanting you to write SLoD (Slod?) I have to admit, I hadn't really thought about how the sudden, unexpected addition of dolls could screw up the story- and really, it's a fascinating story. If you had told me you could write something that I loved more than m15m, I wouldn't have believed you (especially Troy). But you did, and it cheers me up, and it's HYSTERICAL. But it totally makes sense, and you're right- this is a very unique medium you've hit upon. And I'm glad you did.

Oh, my god, I totally agree re: Troy in 15 Minutes. Probably one of the top three funniest M15M ever.

You don't sound bitchy Cleo-I get where you're coming from. I really do-although I am curious as to the...amount of dolls you have. What are the others that we haven't seen yet?

[cleolinda]

Well, one was The Package. The other one will be revealed later--several weeks from now, unfortunately--because it's dependent on a couple other things being released first.

[mercurywater]

Aw, I hate the wait ( but I also understand it :) )

[cleolinda]

Believe me, it's killing me.

[sturmclan]

I'm sorry, Cleo. If you even got what I sent you yet (it's not a doll), or when you do, I hope it doesn't create problems for you. To be honest, I wasn't really even thinking of you or the story - just about TLE and what might be fun for him. (Yes, I'm a dorky fangirl)
And, no. You are not a bitch. Or flouncy. That you're doing this AT ALL for the enjoyment & lulz of us out here is amazing & awesome.

[cleolinda]

Omg, I just got it today and it is HILARIOUS. (I just got home and hadn't had a chance to answer all my mail yet--I was about to tell you.) So, so awesome. I haven't been able to open everything yet, but the little deck of cards is PRECIOUS. Thank you so much!

[sturmclan]

Oh, thank GOD. I thought it was hysterical and had SO MUCH FUN picking stuff out that TLE would enjoy - got it all packed up and sent it. Then, I thought, "Holy crap. Cleo's going to think I've lost my damn mind."
I'm glad you "got it". SO MUCH FUN picking out tiny accoutrement.

[cleolinda]

Hee. Well, it helps that we've talked scrapbooking before, and I consider you to be something of an expert on it. : )

[gryffinwhore]

(Oh my God, did I just threaten a classic fanfic writer flounce? Oh my God.)

Ahhh, but the difference is that you are threatening to stop if people buy you things and it stops being fun and starts being stressful. As opposed to say, "If you don't buy me dolls, I will pack up my toys* and leave!"

Don't worry. You don't sound like a bitch, and this clearly had to be said.

*...literally

[cleolinda]

*...literally

Heeeee.

Yeah, it is kind of a weird position for a fan writer to be in, isn't it? "I said STOP buying me things! I will fake being healthy until you STOP buying me lip gloss!"

[chrismm]

Now I totally want to buy you lip gloss. :DD

This makes sense, and you don't sound bitchy at all.

[chris_walsh]

Sincere, and amusing: a nice feat.

I agree with how you put it.

We love ya, Cleo.
