Thanks! And yeah, I deliberately picked a game where Jane wouldn't have an obvious advantage (as opposed to say, Clue)

You're welcome. DON'T WORRY. I UNDERSTAND. Why is this week so insane? WHY? I have about eight lines of tomorrow's fic written. I think it is genuinely going to be short though. So hopefully it will get written later, because I need to go to bed, in order to be semi-alert for my 9:30-12:00 meeting tomorrow morning.

Good luck with all of your things.

Thank you for the gif. It is just fun. (I got one review wishing it was longer, and I had to very much restrain myself from sending the person a PM going, I AM WRITING 28-29 fic for this month. LEAVE ME BE. I may be getting more and more stressed out about this as the days go by... Cheerful icon time!)

I am going to worry about my crapload of things I have to do tomorrow. (Laundry, write a fic, bake, gah...)

Sleep. Now.

I love this so much! The summary had me hooked and wow, this is awesome, I'm definitely rec-ing it to my Mentalist buddy Brit.

I actually think this was my favorite part, because it implies previous awesomeness.: “And I ended up spending days and days in a car with a stack of books, a travel Scrabble board, and Cho.”

LOVE.

Hee. Thanks! I'm especially glad that you liked the summary, because writing them can be the bane of my existence, tbh.

And honestly, the mental image of Lisbon and Cho playing Scrabble together undercover was the inspiration for this whole fic. Sometimes previous awesomeness is the best part.

Oh yes, Lisbon in her sweats. I'm surprised she let Jane see her not in her I'm-tough work outfit...*remembers Red Badge and shuts up*

HEE. I was actually going to make Lisbon in her sweats a bigger deal when I was writing this, except then I remembered Red Badge....

Hee, Scrabble!

I still suck at that game. Although at my parents' house, there has also always been a dictionary right next to the game. Oh, the discussions I have witnessed.

I love when they're being cute; this was nice :)

I haven't played Scrabble in years. I certainly wouldn't be amazing. I'd be decent in a casual game, I think. Much better at Boggle, personally.

I like writing them being cute, and all best-friendy. It is fun times.
