This was of the good. I liked that it was from Emily's perspective and that you had pieces of the film mixed in. Made it seem as if this actually could have happened off camera so to speak. Oh, and I really loved the part where Miranda is trying to explain but even she can't understand it. This was really great. Thanks.
You know, I recently read an Emily-centric fic which blows anything I've done with her out of the water... I gotta hunt that link down for you if you've not already seen it.
Wonderful how you continued on from those earlier two rather smutty stories and came to this... well I won't call it a romantic story, but it's certainly more emotional and sweet. I'm surprised by that, but also by how well you pulled that off. Beautiful gradual build of the storyline and a very satisfying read. I love your ability to take your time with a storyline. I always have a hard time with that, but you make it seem effortless.

... complete lack of smuttiness, right? :P I'm glad it came across okay, because this one made me wanna tear my hair out at times. I'm glad it was satisfying to read for you.
... complete lack of smuttiness, right? Well, it might not be smutty, but I thought the scene in the Closet was still hot, not to mention there's a certain sexy tingle to the whole thing because of all that is implied...
And. I reread this: a very satisfying read and realised, as I didn't when I wrote it, that it probably came off cooler than I intended. I was just trying out variations on "I love your story". :) This story stayed with me all day yesterday and I think it's turning into one hell of a series! I hope that's more unequivocal.
Oh, no! Gah. I didn't mean to look like I was fishing for compliments. "A satisfying read" means a lot to me, and I really appreciate that you took the time to comment. =)

Oh indeed as has been said before: I really liked this story too. It fits in very nicely with the movie and it's a bit more romantic than what you usually write. (I am a big fan of your more smutty stuff as well!!)
I loved the scene where Emily is trapped in the closet and the end with a bit of Nigel wittiness is it is perfect too.
