Katie does sort of need a lightbulb moment. I'm just not sure she's going to like it when things are illuminated... ;)
Glad you got that other theme, the sort of lostness of Katie. So she's sort of got these supportive people in Emily and Effy but they're both rather getting a bit lost in themselves too. I mean, this Emily is a little different because she never had a Naomi but she's off being a massive homo so she's cool, but Effy is still very Effy, which must frustrate Katie at times.
So with Naomi, who's a bit older and a bit different, she can sort of start to see what it's like to have an actual friend. And because they're so similar it just starts to make sense for them to get to know each other.
Sorry, rambling :)
And who says Naomi likes ladies?! ;) (No, she actually does. You're not wrong there. But does she like Cook too...?)
Thank you so much for your awesome comments. I do love you muchly also.
Heh, so I should learn to read properly, it took me a good few paragraphs in before I realised that this was an AU (things just felt a little off, and I couldn't figure out why until they met JJ and Pandora and it clicked) which was a total fail on my part, clearly.
Anyway, I really like the set up here, the dynamics that Katie and Naomi have, getting on by driving each other round the bend for the most part, but the ~hate doesn't run quite so deep as on the show. Cook continues to be the best lesbro ever, and Effy not being suicidal is delightful. Really interested to see how you progress this :) ♥
LOL, like 'Flis, wtf is this? What are you writing?! Why is... ohhhh' ;)
Yeah, Katie doesn't hate quite as intensely because there's no Emily around. She's already buggered off so Katie's not got a real proper personal reason to hate Naomi. Yet ;)
Not suicidal Effy makes me happy, so I'm quite happy to have her exist here as such :) And Cook is always a tricky one because of his bloody accent, so I hope I'm doing all right with the way he's coming across. Always fun to write though.
Dude, I think it goes without saying that your handling of this particular pairing is masterful; you get what makes them work, as friends or more, and that comes across so clearly in your writing
( ... )
Yeah, take Emily out of the equation and you've got a bit of a 'who the fuck are you?' kind of thing going on for a bit but, after a while, they start to ~bond.
I know, it's like a sort of self-indulgent thing, writing an AU like this. Just chucking in the other characters where I feel like it - plus I could totally see Doug running the Union. Drunks - harmless! Just give them some peanuts and tell them to have a jolly nice time.
Writing these guys like this is just fun :) So I'm glad you like it too!
Okay, first of all let me say that 'In Keeping Secrets' is one of my favorite Katie/Naomi fics EVER, so I did a little happy dance when I clicked on your page and saw that you posted a new fic with the same pairing!
And I wasn't disappointed - I love the way their relationship is slowly developing and can't wait to read where you're leading them....so........I don't want to be pushy or something....BUT.....what about an update? PLEEEASE? ;-)
I should have said, though, that it'll be a while between updates - I'm so busy it's ridiculous! So I'm glad you're keen but there won't be an update that quickly. Sorry!

Keffy friendship makes me happy and is why I love fanfic - you can go in the direction that the show never fully went in. You know?
*hugs* ♥
