You just write the most beautiful things. I love everything about this.

[waltzmatildah]

Thank you!!! Also, you know what this means???

You're up! You might want to give me a few prompts because, while I'm gonna try, I'm not convinced I'll be able to do one 5200 word fic... so if you can give me a few ideas that would be fantabulous.

The only couple/pairing I refuse to touch is Owen/Cristina! (actually, Owen in general!).

[waltzmatildah]

OH! It totally should! THANK YOU!!!!

Too many A names!! I'm fixing it right now.

And thank you so much for reading, glad that you liked it!!

Oh, I like it. Really clever way to explore what happened with Aaron and Amber juxtaposed with Alex's feelings about it all now.

[waltzmatildah]

Thank you!!!

Loved this story. You've got both voices exactly right. I also loved the writing of this bit:

"Aaron is sedated and restrained and at first it's all Alex can do to bring himself to look through the reinforced glass that separates them. A psych. resident is reeling off admitting information that bounces off his shoulder blades and the impassive planes of his face, never quite makes it any further than his outermost layer of skin. He thinks he might be sick."

Great imagery.

(Also, sorry, no Grey's icons! I'm new to GA fic.)

Thank you so much for reading!! I'm very glad that you liked it! And welcome aboard the Grey's train! It can be a very bumpy ride! Are you new to the show, too?

[farmerliz]

Yes and no. I started watching at the very beginning, but during S2 my life got crazy, and I wasn't enamored of the Denny story line, and really didn't like Christina and Burke together, so I stopped watching. But I've recently climbed back aboard, and have caught up entirely from the beginning of S3. I still don't really have time for another hardcore fandom, but I'm having fun. I'll be checking out more of your fic. Any recommendations?

[waltzmatildah]

Haha, my favourite season is season two!! (Though, got to be honest with you, I also wasn't a huge fan of the Burke/Cristina relationship or the Denny situation except for with regard to what it meant for Alex/Izzie who are my most favourite thing ever!).

I'm not enamoured with Season Seven. In fact, I've hardly watched any of it because the Owen/Cristina relationship makes me RAGE even more then the Burke/Cristina one!! Haha! And I have had other MAJOR issues with season seven... but, as a whole, I still love the show. And I still live in complete denial about Alex/Izzie being over!!

As for fic recs, it depends on what you like... All my stuff is pretty Alex centric. There are fics that don't involve him (though, they're rare), and fics where he's not the 'main character' but, most of them are pretty Alex heavy.

Also, angst. In the GA fandom I'm known as the Angst Queen! Haha!! So, beware of that too!

I have a masterlist HERE which might help you decide where to start. There is a fair bit to choose from

I loved it so much! It was perfect. The way you write is just amazing! Everything I wanted :) Sorry it took me so long to read RL was a bit crazy! Thank you so much!!!

[waltzmatildah]

YAY!! I'm glad you liked it! I've written stuff that's hinted at Alex/April before but this was the first time I was explicit about it so it was a bit scary!

So pleased it was what you were wanting!!

PHEW!!!

Thank you for buying me!! It made my day!! ♥
