That's great! I wouldn't have thought you could express so much storyline without dialogue, but you did! *g* Wonderful.

[sparcck]

Thanks! I was a little nervous about this -- I'm usually all about the dialogue. I'm glad you liked it!

[sparcck]

it reminds me of 'hit and run' danny

What a great compliment! And I just love Dan -- he's so broken.

the hyper-verbal in an alternate universe

An awesome way of saying that, and it's exactly what I was going for. Thank you so much!

It's. Um. Sports Night without talking. ::tries to wrap mind around concept of Sports-Night-without-talking:: ::brain explodes::

How the heck did you manage that? And pull it off so well? It worked and was wonderful and...my god, Sports Night without talking. Wow.

[sparcck]

Thank you thank you! I started this about three times before anything even remotely acceptable came out. It was like, what's harder than writing no dialogue? Writing SorkinFic with no dialogue. :) I'm glad you thought it worked. Thanks again!

I love how Sorkinesque you managed to make this without dialogue -- which is obviously a pretty big part of Aaron's writing! :)

[sparcck]

Thank you! I'm so blown away that you think it worked -- it was such a gamble for me to try it. But I think it's because Sorkin crafted such wonderful characters -- he builds them with his dialogue, yeah, but the foundation is so strong, so after watching SN as many times as we probably have, these people are all so real. *worships*

Thanks again! And I LOVE your icon, by the way. Eeeee!

As part of my give-more-fb resolution, just popping in to say that I really liked this. Making Dan's distinctive verbal rhythyms into mental ones--so well done, the pacing and the details and the hand signals and...mmm. Very nice.

Oh, and because I'm anal? You missed a 't' in the first sentence of the last section.
