YAY!!! What a great escape after a stressful week. I would say you snuck it in on me, but since we just keep missing each other I don't think that's the case. Interesting history for Dr. Allen, Esme seems just the type Miranda would surround herself with.

Hopefully we can catch up soon, but until then...GREAT JOB!

I know right? I was all, we're only 600 miles away from each other. What IS the problem!?
I'm glad I finally managed to catch up with you a little. Papers ahoy!

I'm so glad you're reading and that you like it, sweetheart.

It's always good to know you're reading, radak.

Hey there. This is good stuff--as ever, you're so comfortable with your characters. You're one of the least shy writers I've read, I think, and I'm so glad to see this story continue. I've been out of touch, and I'm sorry, but I'm here, and I'm really enjoying what I'm reading. I hope you're doing well!

Well, hello there stranger. And no worries on that account--I've been a stranger myself and I know it. I apologize, as well.

I'm not sure what you mean about the 'least shy' writers. If you mean to say will I throw in a throw-away character for a sub-character just to give her a little back-story, which is pretty obnoxious of me and completely gratuitous for me, I'll hang my head like the dog I am and say guilty.

I'm always delighted to hear from you. I hope you're as happy as you deserve to be, which would be pretty damned happy, in my recollection.

Thank you, dear CoC, for reading.

A trend

Yay! I was sitting here, close to bedtime thinking, I could use a glass of my favorite Shiraz but not 'motating' to go get one until I checked all my current 'reads'. When I saw that there was an update from you I immediately put the laptop down, filled a glass half full and came back to enjoy. Your updates have become an event............in a fandom to which I am new.
So, I have noticed a trend. You always 'find' characters in that fertile brain of yours that seem to trump the last character that trumped everyone. Like dominoes, they all fall to the next 'trumper', except Miranda of course who is the MOAT, the Mother Of All Trump cards. I love this story!

Oh, tuesboomer, if you only knew the characters I keep OUT of this story. It's a struggle and I'm not...really...kidding.

I can't help it. There they are. And they talk. [Imagine me throwing my hands in the air--but wait--I have to type] And they just keep talking and I'm like, "Hello--could you shut up and let me get back to Miranda and Andy?" And they're all, "Uh--no, we're part of the narrative now, thank you very much," so I grit my teeth and growl at them.

It's a dog's life, tues.

Thanks for reading. Sorry I dragged you into another fandom but I do appreciate your writing.

Oh no! No, no no! Nothing for you to apologize for. I made my choice and I'm not complaining. Reading has been my passion since before I learned to read....... yes, that's what I meant. Finding another gem that feeds my addiction is a delightful thing. For what it's worth, your work is the only Miranda/Andy offering I am reading and I have no plans to expand. I am quite busy enough with real life and the, at last count, 43 SVU-A/O links I have tucked away in my little treasure chest.

You should consider 'capturing' those other characters words for future use, one page at a time if necessary, before what they say gets away from you. It's probably good stuff.
