Miz, dammit, I don't have time to read this right now!

Evil wench...*sigh*

I'll be back later to read and admire.

No one's saying you have to read it now, aka! *hugs you for wanting to*

This is just the only time this week I knew I'd be able to finish coding it and post it. Yes, somehow Tuesday night is my slow time.

Is it supposed to make me giggle that I got you to swear at me? *slightly evil grin*

Yay, you finished it! I can't believe I didn't know this was posted!! I've been waiting for aaaaages for this story! And now it's here, and I had no idea! Woe. I shall read it ASAP. *clutches fic in greedy glee* Eeeeeeeeeeeee!!

Yay, you found it!! Hope you enjoy it - I loved writing it. And maybe more fic will come of the post that started it? *hopes*

Oh, this is just pitch-perfect and Fraser as a butler, genius!

Thank you so much! I really worked hard to keep them in character, so this makes me very happy to read!

And I adore your icon!

Fraser as a butler! PERFECT! What an inspired idea!

I love this to bits, all the nods to canon and the great, great play between Fraser and RayK. You show how RayK is breaking through Fraser's defenses so naturally, and at the same time how Fraser is unintentionally working his way under RayK's skin.

Not read the second part yet, but I'm betting RayK is undercover...I just wonder if RayV is as well? You've set up a well layered plot here, just complex enough to be giving me too much to work with. *gnaws on plot* hmmmm....

Thank you so much! I really like butler!Fraser - it made a nice fit.

It was great fun finding places to work in canon - glad you enjoyed it. And that the evolution of their relationship feels natural - it was a concern for me that it not feel *too* sudden.

And you have no idea how gleeful I am to read the words "well layered plot" in reference to something I've written. I don't think of plot as a strength of mine, so this was wonderful.

As for the Rays being undercover... read on and see!
