oh man. I'm speechless. Thank you thank you thank you. That's exactly what I needed after watching 2.500 africans die (on film) and after the half-way official and complete death of my OTP.

Don't you ever dare and delete this one, I LOVE IT. SO MUCH. The crying and the comforting and the kissing and YES. Perfect.

*posts and runs to read it again*

Thank you, dear. I'm glad it cheered you up after what sounds like a perfectly horrid film. And I'm sorry about your OTP. *hugs*

Dear CL,

Please to be accepting my proposal of marriage.

Much love,
Me.

Dude, if that's how you apologize for things, then please make me read as many crack!fics as you wish.

You know how much I adore your writing, so I won't comment on that, but thank you for writing all the 'right' things. You know, like Addison's 'I'm not the kind of person who talks to elevators and lets strangers stick their tongues down my throat while I'm having a nervous breakdown' and Alex's jealousy and possessiveness even in the light of all his insecurities, just to name a couple. It may be a little egotistical of me assume that you did because that's how I feel, because maybe you agree with me on some of those points, but thanks just the same.

I'll never understand how you can NOT write more frequently, because you're crazy-talented, but really, thanks for writing this. You rock. ♥

Aw, I'm so glad it fit your spin-off reading! I was writing for you, but I also do agree with you on the things I put in. So both are true.

I'm afraid I promised Beth I wouldn't be a bigamist, so we'll have to wait until I join Addison in the ranks of the divorced before accepting your kind offer. (Beth owns Derek, though, so it may be quite some time!) But thank you. ;)

I don't understand the crapfic tag at all...such silliness. I think it should probably say, "amazing_wonderful_best_fic" or something. Although that applies to all fic you write.

It always makes me happy when you write things and I can't get enough of the warm fuzzy feeling that your fics give me.

And it makes me glad that I creepily proposed to you many moons ago.

Right back at you, fiancée. Your fics do that for me, too. :)

Thank you so much. ♥

Okay, so I originally tracked down your LJ because I wanted to respond to the FB reply you left at ff.net. Then I discovered this fic. Before I read this fic, I thought I'd check out the crack fic you were talking about. Then, my computer went haywire and I never got around to doing any of that. (Thank goodness for Firefox's session saver!) Anyway, I finally had the time to get back to this, so...

First, the reason I came here, response to the FB. As I was telling a friend earlier, I begin to feel a bit like a cranky janitor, trailing Shonda with a dustpan and a look of bitter, disrespectful servitude on my face... Oh, God, what a great description. Shonda really needs people to clean up her messes. (Although, it would be nicer if she had people that told her the truth and prevented her from making messes in the first place, but I think that's probably too much to hope for.) I appreciate whatever you do in this arena, but I also appreciate that scut work isn't the most pleasant or fulfilling at times and might not be how ( ... )

My goodness! Hello, LJ-version of you. Just lovely to see you here. :)

First, sometimes I need to do scut-work for my own sanity. That chapter was me purging myself of much rage and discontentment with the finale. I've set it aside for the moment, as I wasn't making progress (I don't want to write it unless I can improve matters, and I was stuck in a mire of angst and zero resolution). But I may yet resume work on it, if inspiration returns. Thank you for saying you would read it.

Second, I'm glad you liked the crack!fic. I got such a kick out of it, because it was the kind of thing I thought would (should!) be impossible to enjoy, but then I did enjoy it, from beginning to end. If you're bored and you find yourself in the mood to try other ships (sadly, I've had difficulty reading Alex/Addison of late), I keep a list of GA pieces that impressed me in my personal LJ. The Derek/Addison pieces by mardia and sweetnarcosis are particularly well-written, and that ship is very hard to pull off convincingly ( ... )
