Wow, this looks really good so far! I found it through Das Sporking.

I like Allie and Lindsey; they're really good characters.

Ideas for spitefics just come out of nowhere, don't they?

Actually, I blame this one entirely on Gehayi. We got to talking a few chapters back about how Ana can no longer relate to other women other than "they must be lusting after Christian!" and she mentioned "Yeah, you're right: she meets a lesbian couple at the party and can't talk to them because her only frame of reference for other women is that they lust after Christian." Since everyone had recently been saying how they needed a detective to arrest Grey, and a wizard to kick his ass, it turned out I had the proper couple to meet the description... :)

Thanks! I have to say, these two are kind of my babies, I spend so much time with them.

This is SO AWESOME. I love your characters and I love Kate!

Yeah, it's too bad Kate is in Barbados, right?

Thank you. :)

This is great! I found it through Das Sporking.

I love that Kate noticed that the Greys' home is modeled after Graceland, while Ana seems to think it's the epitome of taste and class. There are so many worse things in those books, but the Graceland thing kills me every time.

Can't wait to see more!

The Graceland thing was one of those "what the fuck is this?" moments that come out of left field. It's probably the fact that it's not just bad, it's totally unnecessary! (Just like the Cullens' white, white house with the massive fucking metal shutters.)

You're in luck: new chapters go up on Tuesdays!
