Lauren came down to see me a few weekends back and we saw Legally Blonde: The Musical(!) We were sort of surprised by how ridiculously fun and genuinely good it was... Anyway - fic!

That was deliciously adorable. Please write more...there's a serious lack of good Emmett/Elle fic. :)

Glad you enjoyed!

This is just too cool! I'm this fic's #1 fangirl. The fact that you can write both Elle and Emmett's (two very different characters!) so well really shows a lot. It was actually the little things like this:

They’re lying on Emmett’s couch, facing a blank TV screen, and Elle has somehow gone from sitting straight up to leaning against Emmett to being fully supported by him.

That totally made me fall in love. Because they're not an overly angsty, in-your-face kind of couple. They're just cute and natural, and I can tell you really get that. Eh, I suck at reviews, which is why I hardly review at all, so the fact that I'm reviewing at all should tell you something. Hee.

I'm so glad you liked! (And I was definitley worried about writing Elle, so I'm glad her voice sounded okay to you!) But it's those sort of little "couple moments" that I like the most in movies or in real life that I think really make relationships seem genuine, y'know? I'm glad you agree.

Also, I completely suck at reviews too (which is hypocritical because I know how nice it is to get them, etc.) so thanks extra muchly (just pretend that made sense...) for reviewing this. ♥

i really really really love this. its so cute and sweet and not snappy, like a lot of the other fics ive rad. :) thanks for writing!

This is awesome! I love following the progression of their relationship and you capture them both so well.

I read this a couple weeks ago, but was going through various links in my bookmarks and found this again. The musical totally ate my brain, too, and I've actually written a couple fics, but am not sure where to post them, since most of my flist would probably think I'm insane. Anyway, I'm blabbing.

I really adore: "I like different." And getting to see little snippets as their relationship progresses. I'm definitely leaving this in my bookmarks to re-read.

Aw, thanks so much! Getting comment on this story again is making me remember the ridiculous bundle of cuteness that is this show. (And it's just so brain-eating, isn't it? For a few weeks after I saw it I had the recording set as my alarm clock, and my roommate was about to kill me.)

As for your fics, I say post 'em! The LB fandom seems to be a lovely bunch - not that I have any interaction with it beyond this fic, but still. I'm sure yours'd be enjoyed.
