My eyes fuzzed a little and I thought the title was Three Cheers for Tranny. Which seemed a bit odd for Mafia fic, but I clicked anyway, because I was thinking that you are just that good, I'll give it a try. Tyranny makes so much more sense!

Believe it or not, you aren't the first person to imagine that typo! And because of that, I checked my spelling on Tyranny about a dozen times. :P Thanks for giving it a shot! (heh, no pun intended...)

I am so, so pleased to see this finally posted. I'm still seriously in awe of all the research and planning and thought that went into this story, and you're right, I do love this as much as you do. Thank you so much for letting me be your cheerleader and talking me through your thoughts for the ending - in person! Definitely going to spend tomorrow re-reading.

I'm just so incredibly happy to have someone who gets this, and knows how much it means to me, you do. And having the opportunity to talk through the ending with you! That was particularly awesome. I am just as flaily about this universe in real life as I am online. :P I'm so glad you were part of this.

of all the years i've been in bandom, and fanfiction in general, this is the single most memorable and enjoyable fanfiction i've ever read. the beginning sucked me in. the middle kept me interested. the end left me breathless.

I had to track this down - nearly two years after I read it - so that I could remember just why this fanfiction sticks in my mind, why this piece of writing is always on the tip of my tongue when people ask me what's my favourite piece of fiction.

the last line of this masterful piece of literature still cuts into me like a fresh blade. it's one of the only fics that can still bring me to tears, years after i read it the first time. years after the first time i bawled.

you bring out every emotion in me with this fic, kiddo. you're my favourite.

Latest reply, but oh. Thank you so, so much for such a thoughtful comment. I appreciate it so very much, and I'm really happy that I was able to bring out those emotions in you. That's my favorite part. Thank you. :)
