I really enjoyed this. There were more than a few lines that made me laugh out loud, yet it still retained the quiet sincerity & weight that the episode required.

The last fic I wrote was crazy depressing, so I think my heart is craving lighter explorations right now, heh. I'm glad it worked for you! Thanks so much.

[summerren]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED.

(That was me saying I love you. Get it? Ha, probably not, I'm feeling particularly lame tonight.

...Anyhow.)

I knew you could do it. I'm glad that it all worked for you and that the instructions didn't put you wrong. I've got to admit that waking up to the #BestEmailEver tweet was basically the highlight of my day, aside from actually reading this little gem. Should have known to quit while I was ahead, clearly.

I already left you some love over at FFN but then I spotted the line We will learn from their mistakes. And Angela's. and my heart was warmed all over again. It's funny, smart and SO perfect. You are a fic genius.

Seriously.

You have no idea how hard that made me laugh, lol. Apparently I'm in a lame mood as well.

Thanks for the extra review love! And for the hilarious instructions. I made quite a mess with my tea at "80 year olds who are afraid of their computers."

I hope today's workday goes better for you than yesterday's. MUAH!

Thanks for posting this to the GA. I really enjoyed your take on this part of the story.

This stuck out for me: sometimes when you're doing something for the person you love, you're doing it for you, too. You need them to be who they are because otherwise it makes it difficult for you to remember who you are Perhaps b/c it is so true.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Since I managed to post without the world exploding/Live Journal crashing, I feel like I can maybe manage to do this again, ha. Thanks!

Hope you keep posting to LJ. I tend to fail at commenting over on ff.net, and don't have an active account to follow people there, but I really enjoy your stories.

This one was lovely, very in character and adding details that fit with what we saw but make it even sweeter.

I'm going to try my best to post on LJ more often... I'm not very fast at it, but I felt really good when I succeeded at this so that's a start, ha.

Thanks so much!
