You know how happy it makes me when you write something? You know how happy it makes me when people use my prompts (even if they get them wrong, like you did)? So, yeah. Happy.

...or not, because the fic is mucho depressing. Lovely though. That last line is sad, and the bit where she says she actually wishes she was raped - gut-wrenching, but so real.

Well done and thank you!

This is really excellent, I can really believe in the conversation that Logan and Mac have. And I think you bring an interesting insight into Mac's state of mind, particularly the idea that she might of thought that he was going to bring o9ers up to humiliate her.

Thank you so much. Maybe it's just my own rampant paranoia, but I could see Mac climbing out of the shower and eventually thinking that the whole relationship had been a huge joke on her. *Shivers*

Nicely done! I love the visual of the entire conversation happening without them looking at each other with Mario flipping around. I don't know why, but it makes me think of Grease and the hot dog commercial playing in the background of the drive in while Danny's pouring his heart out miserable. The idea of Mario being Mario while the two of them are having to talk about these kinds of things is just fun (writing wise) and creative.

I think the salt water taffy was my favorite visual, though.

Sad but fun, if that makes sense. Thanks!

Thanks very much, and I love the thought of the scene in Grease.

I think it's really easy to talk to people while gaming, because you're both looking at the screen. I'm glad that it kind of worked for you.

I liked this fic. I haven't read much about Mac in a while and I thought this was an interesting take on what could have been happening over that summer. And I like Logan and Mac developing friendships. Glad you wrote it, even if it wasn't Duncan.
