I loved this so much. You got Deb's voice perfectly, like I could really hear her in my head, you know? It was fantastic. I loved the tone of this. It was sweet, kind of messed up, heartbreaking and way fucking hot all at the same time.

God, I want them to happen in canon so badly it hurts me.

Yay, I'm glad it sounded like her. Though frankly, writing from her perspective is probably easier than Quinn. She's very much a caricature of herself, so it's easy to get her character, I guess. But I'm so glad you liked it ♥ And, in general, glad we pulled you into it so we each have two readers for our Deb/Quinn fics instead of just one. Speaking of which, I need more from you plzthx ;)

Ugh, yeah, I want them canon so bad too, except it would kind of worry me - Deb hasn't exactly had the best track record with boyfriends or whatever. He'd probably get killed or something, haha, which would be sad because I really like their dynamic. Maybe they can just graphically hook up and then call it a day ;) 'sall I want.

Dude, this was totally worth the wait. ((#@(RN#(R(#@R&(#@R&BFKHGHGSD. So sexy, so sad, so desperate, so funny, so disarmingly sweet--everything I love about the idea of these two together. And such GREATTTTT little details. I flailed so hard over their first non-kiss, and her reaction:

Which she hadn’t, of course. She worked with him for chrissakes. Despite the fact that it would be a stupid idea, was that even allowed? She’d have to look it up later. Or not, since it didn’t fucking matter. SO Deb. Rambly, in denial, hilarious, and secretly scared.

And OH, DEB: She laughs when “we’ve all been there,” goes through her head, like dating a murderer is akin to drinking too much or putting your foot in your mouth. I love her. You get her so right.

“The Popener,” ROTFL. Why do I feel like this is an item one might find in your house? Hee. I love the little mention of Dexter there, that's so something he wouldn't even pretend to think is funny for the sake of appearances, lol.

“It’s my fucking memories, dipshit,”--I love ( ... )

Rofl ha, yeah, I just throw in misspellings and errors to see if you're on your feet. Since I couldn't very well have you beta it before I posted, lolz.

And ha, you caught me, I do have a Popener. I just needed something to stall her in the kitchen for a few minutes, and it was the first thing I thought of. PS it's kind of a crappy opener, I usually just use the can opener ;)

I'm glad you liked it, I really am - I sort of agonized over it because the story you wrote me was SO FRAKKING GOOD I like, felt I couldn't compare. I rewrote it a lot. I just wanted it to be good, 'cause you deserve some awesome Deb/Quinn fic. We all do. WE ALL NEE TO WRITE MORE. All I wanted to do after I wrote this was write more/read more of it. I've found a total of one story not written by us that's Deb/Quinn. It was good but...not enough!

I thought it seemed right to build up their interactions a little, so I'm glad you liked that. And yeah, you know she'd totally be like, yeah, he's hot, no I mean wait, no he isn't, fuck you! to herself about the first ( ... )
