She drops by his office and he wants her to stay forever, just like that. No preamble, no build to a profound statement, he just wants to hole up with her and weave himself around her bones so he never has to worry about letting her go.

Well THIS is just great. Your language is fantastic, and I love your take on these guys in law school--her hand in his t-shirt and the ripping dress especially.

No preamble, no build to a profound statement, he just wants to hole up with her and weave himself around her bones so he never has to worry about letting her go.

Gorgeous, gorgeous work.

This turned out really, really gorgeous! Your wording and imagery is really, really vivid, in the last scene particularly. AND UGH THAT LAST GEORGETOWN BIT, my heart, I love them and you did such a good job with them :3 Lol William you big sap.

SAM. LOOK AT YOU HERE IN MY NEW FANDOM. THIS EXCITES ME GREATLY.

I've always loved your writing, and I LOVE Will/Alicia Georgetown fic. This felt real in both timelines... Will having it so bad for her then, and now, trying to be respectful, trying to get over it, but just never being able to get there. I totally, TOTALLY believe he had visions of storming in and proposing the second he heard she and Peter were separated. It's always been "Tammy who?" the instant Alicia's in the picture.

And Kalinda will always be smarter than everybody about everything except in matters concerning her own feelings/personal life.:)

In conclusion: beautiful job, loved it, and thrilled to see you here.

Everything about this fic, seriously, is beautiful and lovely and amazing. Kalinda is ofcourse written in with perfection, the smallest touches of her character are all spot on. :D That last line also killed me. It's a wonderful, wonderful fic and it works so well as their backstory. ♥
