dude. i loved this fic. and now there is MUSIC to go along with it!

and i think there should be more Dawn/Conner. two kids who have been magically inserted into different worlds? hell, yes.

Hee, y'know, if I had to guess I probably would have picked you as someone on my flist that had read this fic! It seems up your alley. I'm so happy that I actually had someone on my flist who knew what I was talking about! ♥

I know! They were so directly parallel characters in the two shows. I just wanted them to meet at college and be completely blasé about the supernatural together. And deal with their twisted extended family through snark. :D

lol! well, i read fic in a huge array of fandoms, and adore weird things, so YES. also, it's annakovsky, and ive been reading her fic for years. :)

HOLY. SHIT! I freaked out when I saw this on my flist. You are my HERO. OMG I used to LOVE Dawn/Connor back in the day! I used to be active in the big Dawn/Connor group but I can't remember the naem of it anymore. You don't even understand! I used to WRITE FIC! I have *several* Dawn/Connor fics! Man! This totally reminded me of those Buffy/Angel days. Those were the best! I miss that fandom.

Anyway, now I not only have an awesome sounding fanmix with amazing songs from awesome artists, but I now have awesome Dawn/Connor fic! YAYAYAYAYAY!! Also the cover art is gorgeous! When I read the fic I will probably come back with more detailed comments!

EEEEE! I'm so excited that you're so excited! Unnatural Brats? Or maybe, the Yahoo mailing list? I used to hang out there back in the day! You don't understand, Dawn/Connor was one of my fandoms from back when I used to be a total lurker, so for a long time I thought "Who would even care about this mix? I don't even know anyone in that fandom!" I'm so happy that by the time I posted this, I WAS WRONG. Dude! I would totally read your fic (and keep in mind you wrote it when you were 16 or whenever!) if you still have it! HELL, I might have already read it! *jumps up and down with you* Yay, old fandoms!

My goal for this mix was always to a) get anyone I could to read that brilliant fic and b) find someone else as excited by the idea as I was. You TOTALLY stepped up to be both! Thanks for that, bb! I can't even tell you... you made my day!♥♥

Oh man, I'd been so looking forward to this since you mentioned it to me, and it is SO COMPLETELY AWESOME I CAN'T EVEN DEAL. The songs fit SO WELL, and they're all songs that I don't have from artists I love, so I am PRETTY PSYCHED. The quotes you chose match up with the lyrics so well! I can totally tell this is going to go on repeat.

And the ART. Both of them! Augh, Dawn making the kissy face at Connor gets me completely in the gut, and it's so perfectly done. Wow.

Thank you so much for doing it, and for kicking ass at it! I can't even believe you've been thinking about this for two years, that's so great.

Aw, I think I'm blushing! You're too kind! I'm so glad you liked it. I was hoping that you (in particular) would! I had such a fun project to work on all due to your writing, so I'm only too pleased to return a little of that glee! It was a labor of love trying to convey the story in music and I'm pretty much grinning ear to ear to hear it worked for you. And even overlapped with your taste in musicians, nice! It always warms the heart to know someone not only gave the entry a look but took the time to listen. ♥

Augh, Dawn making the kissy face at Connor gets me completely in the gut, and it's so perfectly done.
THANK YOU! That's quite a compliment! It was nice to work on something more than 100x100 pixels. XD I pulled that from a bunch of manips I did yeeears ago. That one totally stood the test of time. Dawn/Connor was actually my first excuse to try manipping people together. Oh non-canon shipping, you force such creativity! :D

You're very welcome and thank you for the wonderful feedback! Really, there's nothing better than

[underhand_glory]

Oh god I love irrational OTPs

They're never ruined by canon!

[topazera]

Me toooo. When I think back on it, I've really had the most fun in fandoms where you have a limited amount of info to go on and then you just have to say "screw canon!". That always encourages some great creativity! Things often work out so awesomely in people's heads!

Thanks for the comment! ♥

Thanks for the suggestion for new fan fiction--I've gotten too obsessed with the ones for Bleach, Junjo Romantica, Twilight, and The Mortal instruments. Downloading now. Thanks for sharing!!

[topazera]

Thanks for commenting and downloading! I hope you enjoy. I know what you mean, holding new good fanfiction is a great feeling! It's nice to break out of the comfy fandom bubbles sometime. :)
