I never thought I'd ever read a Brian/Letty piece, and I certainly never thought I'd ever read a Brian/Letty piece and enjoy it this much. This was brilliant, and so them. Perfect!

Yeah, I knew that the pairing would throw people for a loop, but I'm glad you still enjoyed it!

Thanks!

I don't read a lot of fic in this fandom, but I thought it was really incredible. I love the way you interweaved all of the movies and the relationships between the characters.

Really fabulous.

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Oh, this is fantastic. I had a moment where I looked at the Sibling in the movie theater and went, "Why are there no fics about Brian and Letty?" To which she said, "Because Letty would kill Brian." I was unsatisfied with this answer. (But should have expected it, because she's been a die-hard slasher since day 1; I am too, but sometimes het is interesting!)

And this---this is what I was wondering about that day in the movie theater. You answered a need that I've had building since long before Fast and Furious. And it's both hot and angsty. And there's the specter of Dom (and the past), which both of them need as a touchstone.

If you'll excuse me, I'll be over here squealing.

Thanks! Yeah, I tend to be a slasher as well, but this plot bunny got stuck in my head, and I couldn't get it out. There's this empty space in Fast and Furious just dying to be filled in. :)

Oooh, I liked this! I'd never seen this pairing before, but you completely made it work--how they're both trying to get to Dom.

Thank you! It's definitely an unusual pairing, but yeah, I think it could have worked for this small space in time.
