Thank you! I'm so glad this worked for you.

Oh, my god. This was such a pleasure to read. It's beautiful and perfect and Jewish (which is totally my not-so-secret kink). Every drabble has both the spirit of the holiday and its iconography woven in, and finding them was almost like a game: the mountain and milk crate of Shavuot, the fire of 9 Av, the leaking roof of Sukkot. All these small holidays that are always forgotten in fics, brought to life with lovely, sensory descriptions.

Also, I have to comment on how beautifully this was adapted from the original - keeping the structure and small bits of character interaction and making the rest totally yours, with a Cuddy I love.

Okay, have I said it's beautiful yet?

YAY!

I'm so glad you liked it; I had hoped that you would. :-) And you found all of the hidden iconography, which I figured you would but it's still really exciting -- I feel like this story is a little treasure-hunt, and you found all of the hidden prizes. (Even the milk crate!)

Your story was a pleasure to work with; I really enjoyed reading it closely and figuring out how to spin it in this new way while retaining the genius of what you had done.

In sum: yay!

Squee! Holiday fic! I love this so much. I love your Cuddy and I love the way you use the holidays to say things about her. (I also love how it's like the original, but definitely a different story.)

Thank you so much! I'm delighted that you enjoyed it, and that you found so much to like in this short piece. :-)

This was absolutely gorgeous and a beautiful companion to the original. I'll definitely be adding this to my memories to go alongside the original. *nods*

Thank you so much. I'm a big fan of the original, so I'm pleased that you think this one is worth saving alongside that one! :-)

Lovely, lovely work. Always wonderful to see thoughtful, insightful Cuddy gen, and this expands on and compliments the original so well, too. *love*

Thank you! I'm awfully fond of Cuddy, so it was fun to get to spend some time working on this piece. :-) I'm glad you think it works.
