New Fic: First Choice Part 2/2

[amelie_n]

Title: First Choice
Fandom: DWP
Pairing: Andy/Miranda
Rating: I have no idea. I suck at ratings! There is swearing, and some mild reference to violence, and not very explicit sex. M, maybe?
Author's Notes: I have finally managed to complete my first DWP fic! I haven't written and completed anything in years, so I'm pretty pleased with myself! Feel

Hey Amelie,
I still love this...even reading it twice in twenty-four hours, lol. I told you that you wrote Miranda well! :)

Thank you so, so much again for all your help. All your suggestions were great, and I'm really grateful to have such an amazing beta! I hope all the brackets are gone now, btw. I really don't know why they ended up in the version I sent you....

Thanks again!

I really liked this. The flashbacks were great, and Miranda's need for someone to like her best tugged on my heartstrings. It also explains a lot about her need to *be* the best at everything she does, professionally at least. I think you capture Miranda's voice really well. Thanks for this!

I'm glad that the flashbacks worked and that Miranda seemed believable. I had a lot of fun writing it, so I'm happy that you liked it!

Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment!

Aww, this is wonderful. It's so rare that people write Miranda's early years, and I don't recall seeing siblings in a fic before (except for Poison Ivy, of course). This is beautifully done, and I can easily picture everything you've written happening. I hope we see a lot more DWP fics from you in the future. *grins*

Funnily enough, having a story about Miranda's past and how she came to be the person she is now helps a lot when writing her.

I'm glad the events seemed believable. I wasn't sure if I'd maybe overdone it a little! :) There will be more to come, I'm working on my Secret Santa submission right now! I think I'm in love with this fandom!

Thank you for reading and commenting!

This fic actually did remind me of poetry in motion ... and it could have easily have been titled something along the lines of Evolution because that's what happened here ... even with the presentation of the past I still felt like I was moving forward ... Everything moving in parallel rhythm

And we saw so easily the growth of Miranda's feelings. And at the same time with subtle hints we were given a glimpse into Andy's feelings as well culminating into one night in Paris when without actually saying the words they'd fallen into a relationship.

A rather gentle fic, Perhaps that's what put so much power behind it. Even the look into the past ... the way it was presented or the flow of the words didn't some across as shocking or horrifying but something painfully sorrowful which in those instances made me ache to reach out an hug someone close to me.

Thank you so much for such an in-depth response. Btw, where were you when I was looking for a title? I hate choosing titles!

I wanted to make the way they got together a little different, and I'm glad that that worked for you! I tried not to make the flashbacks too horrifying, because I am aware that there was a lot of drama, and I could have easily made it completely unbelievable.

I'm glad you liked it and left such a nice comment. And now I finally have time to catch up with your fic. I'm about 3 chapters behind...
