Me too. I always thought that Daphne was very important for Justin's continued emotional development, but she's only in maybe a dozen episodes after S1.

This may be your first QAF fic, but I'm very hopeful it won't be your last. :) This is very well-written and I liked the slightly bittersweet Daphne POV. Thank you!

Thank you so much! I have to admit, I was very nervous writing this. I make graphics, not write stories! I got so much feedback though, I may write out a new plot that's bouncing around in my head.

I really like the mental images this conjures up :) There are some grammar problems (I know because I make a lot myself ;D), but they're small. Great work :)

Thank you! Yeah, I was running really short on time. I actually finished the story up on my first day of vacation, in the hotel room, the day it was due. It killed me, because I hate posting without a beta.

Aw, loved that. Absolutely beautiful. And very impressive for a first fic.

and you liked Brian, you really did, but every time Justin was happy, every time you thought he finally had it together, Brian kicked him in stomach and you had to watch Justin struggle to stay above water

They're just, I don't how better to say it ... really nicely put together sentences. And I'm a sucker for a Daphne-fic, so this was a real treat.

Oh, thank you so much. It's really flattering to have my fic quoted back at me. I actually talk like that, sometimes, when I'm really worked up about something. It's surpisingly easy to transfer that to paper.

Aww, that was sweet. I like how you had Daphne stay and make sure Justin was alright when she drove him down to Liberty, I always thought it was very bizarre and un-Daphne-like of her to just leave him there.

[faile02]

Yeah, I agree with you. A real friend wouldn't have just left him... What if Brian hadn't been there, you know? I just had to fix it in my story. Thank goodness for fanfic.

Thank you for the feedback!
