Great start so far!!

[A glint appeared in Abed’s eye, “I didn’t say anything. You know Jeff, you really have perfected your role. Have you considered starting a business where you coach socially awkward men on how to woo women, while simultaneously ignoring your own happiness? I’m thinking 40% Will Smith from Hitch, 25% Ryan Gosling from Crazy Stupid Love, 20% Ryan Reynolds from The Change-Up, and 15% Megan Follows from Anne of Green Gables.”

Jeff gaped at him. “Anne of Gr… What? No, I’m not…”]

Hahah, does this mean you've actually looked into Anne of Green Gables re my comments on how Jeff is Anne Shirley? :P

Also I love Annie turning Jeff's words from APS on him and him being in her role. Since S5 was THE season for J/A role reversal (s), this made sense and was rather keenly poignant too.

Can't wait for more!

Gah! I didn't even post this on M/M yet lol. How'd you find it?

Well, I haven't read it, but yes, I added that for you haha

Yeah, that's kinda how I'd like to see the 'courtship' play out, with him obsessing over her and her having (somewhat) moved on. I'm just not sure they'll have time for it.

I think it's because we're mutual friends and I checked something on LJ for whenever you update your journal lol. I've done it to everyone I've "friended" on LJ so far, so..... lol.

Oooh, you should! The first three books pretty much show Anne Shirley (when it comes to love) as being very very similar to Jeff Winger. Seriously, the two of them should get together and commiserate over their blindness/obliviousness about their taking so long to realise who their hearts belong to!

Yeah, that's kinda how I'd like to see the 'courtship' play out, with him obsessing over her and her having (somewhat) moved on. I'm just not sure they'll have time for it.

lol that's where the not giving up hope that Yahoo might order more eps so we can get A GLORIOUS FULL season again comes in.... ;)

That's what I'm using it for, haha, to get me to March 17. If it helps others, then so much the better! Glad you liked it :)

I just discovered this and I LOVE it!!! You have all of the characters down so perfectly, I'm so jealous. Also I love how all knowing your Abed is.

I love the convo between Jeff and Annie and then Abed and Jeff (and Borchert-- him as the head of the law department will be interesting). And then Annie's ruminations were good, along with Abed scaring her.

Alan is just creepy.

I also love that Annie hit her head on the table when she found out about the engagement being off.

Now Jeff just has to get his act together lol.

Aw, thank you so much! I worry a lot about whether some of the stuff is in character for them. Like Jeff being awkward towards Annie. I just figured that he's never been in love before, so it took him a little while to know what the heck he was supposed to do. Other characters, like Alan, are super easy haha. Just imagine the most sleazy frat boy you can think of.

Annie hitting her head was one of my personal favorite parts haha. I imagined it as basically her being the only one in the group who didn't yet know things had been called off.

lunarblue21 has been so persistent in her comparing J/A to Anne Shirley/Gilbert Blythe that I knew immediately that reference was for her. :-) I love the first chapter! You're an entertaining writer. On to the second chapter...

The dance is lovely and frustrating at the same time. God, Annie and Jeff should just be smooshing their faces together.

I loved the Anne of Green Gables nod.

This is definitely an intriguing beginning. :)

Haha, yeah, I both love and hate slow burns. And J/A has been one of the absolute slowest.

Hope you're enjoying it so far :)
