You had me at "You are hereby cordially invited to Noah Mayer's going away party..."

Great chapter. It was so wonderful seeing what was behind Noah's behaviour. It wasn't pretty but it made Noah make sense as a character. It did a better job of explaining him than the show ever did.

[alissablue]

Thank you, that's a huge compliment. The writers (must have been the Goutman virus!) did such a horrible job explaining the reasons behind his actions, that I had to rectify that and make my version of Noah make sense. I'm glad you liked it.

More Rooftop!Luke. Always love me some of that. Letting Noah know that it's over and officially saying goodbye. Finally realizing without him saying a word that he did place the blame all over Luke. And feeling vindicated for the first time in a long time. Seeing a smile on Luke's face as he walked out was the perfect way to end it.

Hmm, now where is Reid going to find that money for the new neuro wing........

[alissablue]

I love Luke in this chapter. He just went for it, didn't back down despite Noah's douche-y behavior and he finally let go.

If Reid only knew that Luke's worth millions...

Thank you for reading^^!

BYE NOAH! Don't let the door hit you on the way out. :D

Is the next chapter the one I think it is? *bounces*

[alissablue]

NEXT CHAPTER IS TOTALLY THE ONE YOU THINK IT IS<3!

I was thinking... Maybe we should get a beta for PL, an outsider's perspective. Because we're both all "OMG, this is the best thing ever!" and we perhaps need someone who can look at it objectively. XD Agree?

[slayerkitty]

HEEEEEEEE. YES. When will you be posting that gem?

That's a good idea - who would you want to ask?

Oh, and I'll send you my Klaine fic at some point tonight (since your six hours ahead, you'll probably have it back to me before I get home tomorrow, LOL).

[alissablue]

I have to write ch. 36 (and maybe 37) and reread and edit the next one first. Boooooo for my lame chapter cushion. :(

Whoever's willing to do it XD. But we still have some time before we have to go shopping for a beta. :P

I can't wait! I'll read it as soon as I get home. =)

Bye bye Douche. That was a great final conversation. Luke gave it to him good. Blinding smiles from Luke and all your readers.

Gee, who do we know that would have millions of dollars? Reid is going to have to face his fear of dealing with Luke.

[alissablue]

*waves to the Douche* "Thanks to Reid, you can now see the door. Use it." =)

Reid will certainly have to deal with his fear and Luciano will help him with that. Next chapter, in fact. ;)

Thank you!

Oh dear. I'm glad Noah's gone, but I am in some desperate need of Luke/Reid interaction so I'm glad we're getting some. I need them to try to work some things out. Obviously Reid's going to need Luke for his money, but.....lord do I just want them all over each other again, lol.

[alissablue]

The next few chapters are all about them working some things out. Reid's still shutting Luke out and he needs to realize that something like that doesn't just affect him, but also affects Luke. So we need to get through that to get to the part where they can be all over each other. Not that they won't be all over each other before that. They're rarely alone together without invading each other's personal space like whoa.

You know what day it just became over here? April 4th... Dare I hope for an update? *hugs you and hands you flowers and candy and chocolate and cookies. And cake.*

Geez, long reply. Thank you for reading. ;)

[stl29tide]

Ha! Uh...I don't have anything to update yet, lol. I've pretty much been gone from home the majority of the weekend. Right now I'm actually at work (just sneaking on). I am really determined to still have an update for tomorrow though. I'm just afraid it will come really late your time, lol.

I love how they can rarely be alone together without invading each other's personal space. I look forward to much more of that, even if Reid is still trying to figure things out.

[alissablue]

Shame on you for doing that at work. :P

But I get how RL can seriously get in the way of fic writing. If only I could write fic 24/7...

There will be some major invading next chapter... And that's all I'm going to say about that, lol.
