OMG.

That's all I have to say.

This is like Christmas, having the three of them all together in one story, and it's like superstar Christmas, with the three of them all together in one of your stories.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I'll be more coherent later, after I come back from work.

I'm glad you're reading it. And thank you.

By the way, since your birthday is coming up, would you like a drabble or ficlet? And if so, prompt me. :)

I've been way offline lately, due to work and other things... :/

Uh, you know, a drabble would be lovely. I don't know if I should ask for Race and Helo, given you're already writing this piece.

Whatever you want, because everything you write is excellent. And I would be honored. :) Thank you!

That was an awesome chapter. You told the right amount, in the right way and were able to communicate the emotions she's feeling spot-on.

I'm intrigued! More please? :)

sabaceanbabe September 30 2008, 13:02:01 UTC

Thank you so much! :D *bounce*

And I hope to have time to write the next chapter sometime this week. :)

tracyj23 September 30 2008, 14:48:18 UTC

Awesome. If you need a beta, I'd be more than happy. :)

Thank you! Do I have your email?

Great first glimpse at Maggie's past. I like how you worked in the band - which I know is a fandom favorite. Looking forward - as always - to the next installment.

sabaceanbabe September 30 2008, 13:03:54 UTC

The band is a fandom favorite?? O_o That just came from a list of old prompts that's been sitting on my harddrive for a year or two, but that I'd never gotten to. I think it may even be a prompt from poisontaster.

Anyway, I'm glad you liked it. This is one of those chapters that just flowed as I wrote it, no real plan other than Maggie POV and mentioning the band. :P

mamaboolj September 30 2008, 13:16:35 UTC

Hmmm. Probably all prompts, but I've seen quite a requesting/references to Racetrack in a band type. Perhaps they're all from one or two people :)

grammarwoman September 29 2008, 01:34:27 UTC

Excellent job. The tweaks you made are just right.

I can't wait to read the talk between Maggie and her grandmother, and then how she meets up with Karl and Kara. *excited bouncing*

sabaceanbabe September 30 2008, 13:05:09 UTC

Thank you! And thank you for the suggestions in the first place.

Damn. Now I'm going to have to actually *write* that conversation, instead of just alluding to it in later chapters. ;)

vipersweb September 29 2008, 03:22:18 UTC

very fun chapter. I like this background for Racetrack.

sabaceanbabe September 30 2008, 13:05:29 UTC

Thank you! :D
