Ahhh! Thank you so much, Lola. This is absolutely stunning. You have Kalinda so down, and Eli in here is great with his words.

LOVE YOU. <333

I'm so glad you liked it - getting into Kalinda's head is always fun and it was wonderful to get to play with these two.

LOVE YOU BACK <333

Yay - someone else who's compelled by the Kalinda/Eli dynamic, and who can write it stunningly, to boot! This was wonderful. Loved the bits of K's inner thoughts, contrasted with the front of ennui she works to hard to maintain.

Thank you so much - that conflict in Kalinda is one of my favourite things about the show, and I'm so impressed with Archie for maintaining it into a third season. It was fun to get into that headspace and write her. :)

AHHHHHH! This is so good! I love the way you write both of them.

Kudos. You have them both down, and their dynamic.

This is really nice. I like it a lot!
