This was great! Very poignant, happy and sad at the same time. It truly was a beautiful tale.

Thanks :D

It was... well, yeah. It went where it wanted to go. I didn't want to be all "WARNING character death!" because I felt that would ruin it >_> But part of me was all, "Duh, they'll totally be able to tell wtf?"

First Meryl doesn't get her award, then Miranda dies.. what's next? Uh? Next thing someone is going to tell me Easter Bunny does not exist. I swear, whoever, will... *mutters something bad*

On a more serious note: Happy and sad at the same time, I liked it, it was touching!

>_>

It's not my fault, I swear!

(I didn't have a chance to watch the Golden Globes, so, uh, yeah >_>)

Thanks for reading :D

And of course the Easter Bunny exists - who else would leave us such awesome Easter candy?!

YOU were not watching? THAT explains it all. I blame you! Did someone say something about candy? I want candy. I'm hungry.

[Please do not take me seriously :D It's 6 AM and I should go to bed after a night full of awards.]

I was thinking about it, but the first people they interviewed were the Jonas brothers, and I was all "WTF mate?" And then I read outuendo-11's epic fic, and I was like, "Gah, I'm done for!"

Oh snap I want candy too, and I'm at work. Booooo.

So this was sad, and poignant. But then it randomly had like a happy ending...from what I gather. So...it was cool. And weird, but still sad that Miranda had to die, but whatever it was cool. And I felt I should comment on your cool story because you've spent the better part of the day commenting on my strangely epic story. So there you have it...a nice little review from muah.

Do you realize that your (brilliant, perfect, awesome, most wonderful) epic story had all these people glued to their computer so that they were not watching awards and that this made Meryl not get what was supposed to be hers?

....sigh...

I do believe *clears throat* that it was not I who did such a thing. It is those people who chose and vote and stuff who failed at their job. Now if it had been the People's Choice Awards then I could partially, maybe take the blame, but I can't be the scapegoat for the Golden Globes. And really...does Meryl need an award to tell us that she is HAMAZING? No, she will go on living. She's probably glad she didn't have to blubber her way through a boring acceptance speech. But that's just my thoughts on it. What do I know? lol. So really my epic fic served as a counter to the people who watched Meryl lose, yet again, and it is a refuge for people to come and enjoy themselves after her lose, or loses.

I was wrong. I apologize. Of course.
Thank you for the counter and the refuge you gave us.
I was just so upset.
I will go and reread your work now, before going to sleep.
I'm sure it will give me peace.

Sometimes, I am capable of coherent thought.
This is not one of those times.

It took me FOREVER to figure out that Andy was dead. As in, you had to spell it out for me before I got it. I did call Miranda's brain tumor, though.
This fic was interesting, and very well done. I can't say I've ever read anything like it before, in any fandom. It made me feel stupid and then contemplate my very existence all at the same time.
I think I got more out of this fic than I have out of an entire semester of Philosophy classes.

I look forward to reading more from you.

Yeah... the brain cancer... yeah. I had a friend who's father went through that quite a while back. Everything went downhill rather quickly, even with experimental treatments, so that's what I based the time line for Miranda's illness on.

As for Andy being dead, well - I tried to make it not too obvious, but some people are mind-readers (like HbH!). I was hoping that Paul (Andy's made up bro lol) being able to see her worked to trick some people :3

I'm glad you took the time to read it, and I hope you liked it, even though it was kind of crazy sometimes (I had to re-read it a lot to make sure nothing was revealed before its appointed time!).

(ps I'm sorry if I made anyone feel stupid while reading this - it wasn't my intent [esp if they were like "WTF why am I reading this stupid thing?!"])

I'm gonna go before I continue to abuse parentheses >_>
