Awww, I love how all these different realizations are so momentous for each of the characters, but in such strikingly different ways -- and for some, so tragic. Very nice insights into everyone -- I especially liked Juliet's ruminations, and obviously the Daniel/Charlotte interaction (and I'm so glad someone in fic's dealt with that; I thought it was so neat the way their relationship ended up being this cyclical thing).

I knew you would like that last one - think it's my favourite, I hope we do get to see more of them during the luau (it's still on my list of possible demands, watch this space!)

Glad you liked this one!

ohhh, thank you! I love the first times you chose, for so many characters! all significant moments for them, that would change everything. I was particularly touched by Juliet's many first and by Ana's (who I am sure is way more soft than they ever wanted to show us, using attitude like armor). and Miles, too. *loves miles*

thank you again!

I definitely think there was more to Ana than a lot of people realised. Glad you liked this - I loved writing the Juliet one!

I sometimes feel like the only person who writes the tailies - there was a question in a jam session over at thequillstation quite recently asking which characters people didn't write, and a lot of people seemed to name the tailies (I know what NOT to ask for on my queen day then!)

I agree re: Miles, there is something on my to-do list about his relationship with Pierre actually, so I hope now someone requests him. Glad you liked it - think Charlotte's was probably my favourite.

Your fics are always so well thought out and in character. I really like this (and not just because the title has got a brilliant song stuck in my head).

I think the Ana Lucia section got to me the most, but the last line of Shannon's part was really touching. I never understood all the hatred for those two, and I'm glad you included them here. :-)

[tellshannon815]

I never got all the hate there either. I think that people who hated Ana Lucia just didn't really understand her. Glad you liked this one!

You ran with some great first times here!! And I love how you ended them with a not-first-time for Charlotte! Excellent mix of characters too!

Thank you! Charlotte's was probably my favourite, glad you liked!
