Oh wow.... this is everything I wanted! I know what you mean about them causing a situation, you start watching a few videos of performances, then you get sucked in a vacuum and want fanfiction :D I only hope you write more!

Loved it all- your Scott voice seemed so spot-on (as much as can be rpf), the little details like planning to dance to 'You Make My Dreams Come True', Tessa wearing his sweater, her telling him to give Joannie a hug, his ferocious pacing, etc. It really is beautiful writing.

You captured the different emotions so strongly, the fear back in 2008, that secretive, bubbling joy in 2014, and you really showed how strong their unspoken connection is: being so aware of the other that it's shocking when they *don't* know what's happening.

Thanks for this! I can only hope there will be more v/m fic from you ;-)

There definitely is a T/S vacuum, and it is crazy easy to get sucked into! Ha. Thank you for your thoughtful comment, it's always great when people pick up details, and I'm glad this seemed true to life (to whatever extent it can).

I only hope you write more! I probably will, but I have also written some T/S fic in the past, back in 2010 and also quite recently - you can find all my fic for them in my "ship: virtue/moir" tag, if you're interested. :)

Also, I love your icon! That book/movie is so lovely.

This is beautiful and I am so glad you wrote it and that it exists. Loved all of the little nuances, loved how true their voices rang through (everything feels natural and right!), and loved how everything was paced. Especially enjoyed that you've written them as getting together in Russia because they were magical in Sochi.

Lovely work. I am going to go read this 100 more times.

Thank you! If real life was a narrative (and wouldn't that be so much more simple, lol), I feel like Sochi totally would've had to been the trajectory their ~romance~ was heading toward - their performances were, like you said, magical, and it really seems like now is the perfect time to put skating on the back burner and put...feelings, shall we say, into focus.

(Also I glanced at your LJ and I feel that we should be friends, so I'm going to friend you, if that's cool!)

[metrocard]

Their story follows such a ridiculous rom-com narrative (Scott revealing that his first kiss was Tessa at the Ilderton Carnival? I can't even) that it would make things so much easier if they would just go along with following that narrative. Sochi would have made perfect sense to bring all those feelings to the forefront.

(And of course! I'm just getting back into the swing of LJ and would love to be friends! :D)

You will forever be my favourite Fanfic writer, I wish you'd be a part of each of my fandom cause you would make it so much better.
Love(d) all your Dan/Blair stuff, and your Tessa/Scott stuff is just as amazing, please continue to write for them!!!!

[sing_song_sung]

Thank you! I think it's quite possible that I'll be writing more T/S, and I'm hoping to (finally) post some more DB at some point soon-ish.

Ok, so this is truly delightful. I am also quite thrilled by the cameo by PChiddy. Ha.

[sing_song_sung]

Thank you! I am one of the many, it would seem, who has become a Reluctant Patrick Chan Fan this past season. His relationship with Scott is pretty darn cute.

[featherweight]

I was always pretty ambivalent about Patrick Chan, but after the Tessa/Scott show and the Olympics, I could read about Tessa/Scott/PChiddy forever.

This is just gorgeous. Thanks so much.
