Ooh yes, you just made my day!

And I realized what's really awesome and fascinating about your writing is how you put the characters into situations which, on the one hand, you don't think the writers would ever dare to put them in on the show - because they're chickens - and which, on the other hand, you'd totally die to see. And you go and write them, perfectly in-character and still stunning and awe-inducing. Like the weirdly fun moment that is Addison and Meredith having ice-cream together at Meredith's house. You win! Seriously.

Also, I love assertive Meredith! As in “I noticed. But the ice cream is free here and besides, I threw out all of my Addison dart boards and ‘I heart McDreamy’ mugs weeks ago.”

Loved the bonding over nannies and housekeepers. And Cristina complaining about Hahn and Callie. I was very bothered by that scene on the show, so I like to see follow-up.

Mark so is the male Cristina! Which, again, just screams 'slang'!

oh I'm so glad you liked. I don't deliberately put them in strange situations;) Just kinda happens. Yes, Mark and Cristina so scream slang but I like Maddison too so I'm torn. I know you don't like the shippy stuff as much but are we ok there? Still realish? I trust your eye as you know;) A thousand thank yous for the feedback! You win!

Oh, don't get me wrong, I love Mark with Addison in your fic. You could always just write another fic altogether for SLANG. And, I always do like and even enjoy the shippy stuff when it is believable and in-character. Even Meredith/Derek! So, don't worry about me. Besides, I like the fact that Addison and Mark adress their issues, even if they're having the same fights over again. At least they're having them, unlike other Grey's couples. ;-)

thanks for replying to my feedback whoring:) I heart you. And I know you're in it for real, so that's why I asked.

Oh I can't help the SLANG love I have. I'll just have to write and read more fic. Poor me.

I can't tell you how excited I got when I saw you'd updated this and it was awesome.

I would quote from your amazing, quicksilver dialogue, but there's just too much that I loved. I'm in awe of how you work so much insight and intelligence and emotion into brilliant, funny lines. And your Mark and Addison are perfect, in character and exactly how they should be together.

Thank you so much for this :)

thank you! I take forever to update but I love these characters, and I needed the maddison feedback...I was nervous because there was major revision with those two. Did I mention thank you?

I was starting to think you weren't going to update this story.Once again the Mer/Addie/Christina friendship was awesome.Christina really is starting to sound like a male Mark.I seriously think Christina should be be named the Queen of all things snarky,at least in this story.As much as I love the funny parts I'm glad you took the time to address some of the real issues with Mark/Addison.I loved that he even though he isn't okay with it he admitted that he wasn't ready for a relationship and a baby back then because I truly believe he wasn't no matter what he said on the show about them being happy.He was cheating and she clearly hadn't moved on from her husband so I really didn't get how he convinced himself they'd be happy so I didn't feel sorry for him that much especially since it seemed like he was blaming everything on her.I hope we get to see more of this kind of stuff between them between the funny parts.
