Not sure if I've commented before, but this story is just incredibly brilliant. Generally, not my type of fic, but it's a testament to your writing, that I sit on pins and needles waiting for the next installment. Great piece, another wonderful chapter, and I loved that the reason Noah is in Oakdale is because of his mom (if I read that right).

Can't wait to see where you go next.

You did read it correctly. He's in Oakdale because of his mom, trying to understand her.

I can't wait to see where I go next either. It's all a mystery.

I'm thrilled that you're enjoying it. It's always exciting when writers I like to read like what I'm writing. :)

Thank you so much for the compliment.

I can't wait to see where I go next either. It's all a mystery. I'm the same way when I write. With this fic, I can picture two scenarios, but neither one will happen, I'm sure, because it's the romantic in me. I think Noah would have to agree that romance doesn't belong anywhere near him.

How I do love this story. So much. So v.v. much. Sigh.

I love how you brought in Noah's mom again (you already know how much I love that) and how Roth and Katie fit in so seamlessly. When I read you were using Katie on the board I didn't know how that was gonna work and it all makes so much sense and flows wonderfully. I also love how Roth and Luke were talking about Noah the whole time and didn't realize it. And the ending was brilliant. LOVE Noah doing that to Luke.

But really what I love the most is just your writing. Love love love. The end.

Tell me again, who's the enabler here?

Thank you. I do think of you when I mention Mom, because you and I are clearly some of the only ones who feel like that was a storyline ripped short when it shouldn't have been.

Glad to know Katie worked in well. I wasn't sure about that at first.

*dusts off pom poms* I was, in fact, a cheerleader for, like, 5 mins when I was younger. So I come by it rightfully. Hee.

Yes. I *heart* hooker!Mom references a lot. So so much untapped potential there. But you using that in the backstory makes me all happy and stuff.

nouveau_monday July 17 2008, 00:17:15 UTC

You were a cheerleader?!?! That kicks ass! I'm super jealous.

So much untapped potential, especially as she has a sister who is alive somewhere. Hello, if Luke can have scenes with his mom and no noah, noah should have some scenes with NO LUKE.

Well, another great chapter. This Noah is so intriguing. As always I wait for another, actually I impatiently wait for anything you write.

nouveau_monday July 17 2008, 00:16:07 UTC

*smiles* thanks. Hopefully I'll get a lot more of this out over vacation. I'm enjoying it a lot.

I really love this story. This version of Noah is so interesting. Just love this! Thanks! I can't wait to read another chapter!

nouveau_monday July 17 2008, 04:58:35 UTC

glad you're enjoying it. thank you so much :)

hopefully i'll get another chapter posted by next wednesday. i'm trying to do this thing where i keep to a schedule :-p let's see if it works.

Monday, this is really lovely. The best thing is that you construct distinct characters with distinct voices and habits, motion. Of course also the building of all of the history and the thoughts and the disparate actions. Just lovely. Can't wait for the next chapter as always.

i only started watching ATWT in december or so, so i'm having fun exploring other characters and talking to people who have watched the show historically. It's neat getting their perspective and trying to add that in.

i always worry that all my characters sound exactly like me, so it's fantastic to see that the characters sound distinct to you. thank you so much :)
