This was amazing. The subtle nuances of this, the slow reveal, what a punch. *whomp*

This is so different from anything I have ever read. Rachel, a police officer?? But somehow you managed to keep her very in character. I hope to read more of your work :)

Re: Love it!

I'm glad I kept her in character, even though it was an unexpected situation. And if you want to read more of my work, feel free to look around my journal! I've written plenty of Glee fics before this one.

I love this. I think you write AUs really, really well. You manage to put them in new situations and still capture their Puck and Rachel-ness so well. Write more AUs please! :)

[countrygirl_914]

Hahaha, I didn't realize I was becoming known for AUs! Not something I planned on, but I'll take it. And I'll write more if the muse plays nice.

Thanks for commenting!

Thank you so so so much! It makes me deliriously happy that you like it so much. When someone says they trust something because it comes from me, I feel so honored. *basks in feelings of awesome*

Yeah, the Bekah situation was heartbreaking, but I thought it had to be--only something that horrible could make Rachel do a complete 180.

Hahaha, yeah, I don't know WTF to call it either. It's definitely a future fic, but can I call it AU too? Cause it's in the future, so it's not like I'm changing canon, but it so totally would not happen.

I think a review I got on fanfiction.net sums it up pretty well--"It would never happen, but if it did, it would happen like this." :D

And if you really like my weird, almost AU stories, here's one I wrote a while back that everyone seemed to really like:

Again, I'd love to hear what you think of it!

oh WOW. one of the best glee fics I've read- you take this crazy situation of Puck and RACHEL of all people as police partners, but you write them so well, with such real emotion, that it seemed so natural. I loved seeing them falling for each other, and him finding out why she became a police officer, I loved how he kind of accidentally moved it, the ending was perfect. I had so many favorite lines, and you wrote Puck's POV so damn well, I loved-
“I could have lost you today,” he says, voice rough.

She lays a hand on his knee. “But you didn’t.” She doesn’t say that she’s not his to lose.

(Maybe that’s because they both know it would be a lie.)

really great story. thanks for writing this.

[countrygirl_914]

That's one of my favorite parts as well. I'm so glad you liked it.

Thanks! :D
