you mean it doesn't sound too much like a bad mafia movie?? (because i'm re-reading it now, and that is pretty much how it comes off, lolol. but whatever gets me typing, i suppose.)
oh god, winter. i came up with that first paragraph after revisiting my unpleasant wintry memories of Michigan. aweijfa;lskdg-- i can't believe i made you miss WINTER. (what sorcery is this? xD)
and you have to know, my heart bursts every time you post or comment, because then i can breathe a sigh of relief and be all, ze hasn't left us! i know you hate PDA, darling, but-- *clings* you're too good to me, bb, always. thank you!!
Pssshhhhh. Are you reading what I'm reading??? CLEARLY NOT. [I could actually list the things that would make me all >.< please, spare me the pain but that would be very gauche, coming from a mere lurker. If it makes you feel better though I will. Maybe.]
NO. It had elements of noir: atmospheric, gritty. (There's something else I wanted to say but I've had wine :) Hesse your writing is SUPER ELEGANT. I wish I had payed more attention to my lit classes so I could give it proper praise (w/ all the important words about structures and whatnot) and idk maybe you'd be able to see this the way I do (and how corny is that?)
it would! and not gauche at all, i promise. :D i'm always, always up for concrit.
oh man, i wish i had some wine right now. ♥ and thank you for saying such nice things, bb! i tend to see the cogs before i see the machine, so each sentence seems like a disconnected cog to me. it doesn't quite link up to the next, so there's a bit of a broken flow as i struggle to see the whole story. (i don't know if that makes any sense, but that's essentially what happens with everything i write. haha.) one crit i got some time ago was that i favor style over substance, which is absolutely true. but it's much harder to deviate from that path than i first thought. my writing tends to lean towards Emotions First, Logic Later. (which is strange, because i am all about Logic First, Emotions Later whenever i make decisions and handle relationships irl.)
i always thought she was pretty amazing on the show, but during that one episode where she gets set up by Fowler? i was all, OH SHE'S BADASS. (i mean, she runs her own event-planning business and that's pretty much like being a don, right? xD)
ahhh, thank you! *hugs* <333 and LOL, I BELIEVE THAT IS THE OFFICIAL FAMILY NAME.
you do not want to cross Elizabeth Awesome.
oh god, the Awesomes are after us. we are dead men.
Salt grains crunch beneath his feet and plumes of steam hiss from a nearby sewer grate. - This is fantastic.
Also - I LOVE that Elizabeth is the mob boss. Wut?!! Sexy. Speaking of sexy, I can't wait until Peter and Neal have sexy-angry-fast-then-slow-confused-sexy again sex. Because that has to be inevitable since Peter killed Kate. Right?
thank you! <3 i have pretty strong (negative) feelings about winter, having grown up in MI. haha.
not gonna lie, i just want to see El kick some major ass. literally. xD and YES, THAT IS THE LOGICAL CONCLUSION. (unfortunately, my porn-fu skills are, um, nonexistent rusty. lol.)
awifjsei-- ILU, JENN. <3 (i saw you post recently and i was like YAY, but then i realized i know absolutely nothing about bandom, so then i was like ;____;)
ARE YOU SURE. I LOOKED UP "SPAMMING" IN THE DICTIONARY AND SAW A PICTURE OF MY LJ. xD

i'm just kind of wishing someone would take Peacemaker!Peter and write an entire novella on him. *casts hopeful glance at fandom*
