Good times! I had a frustrating day, and this boosted me, so thanks for that!

Best phrase, in my opinion:
"they write a map leading down the path to self-destruction."

Golden. Really.

I haven't asked anyone on lj for this, so I don't know the etiquette. I was wondering if I could possibly get an e-mail address from you for beta purposes. I have a few fics stored away, and I love your writing style. Anyway, let me know what you think about that.

Again, great fic.!

Reading after a hard day is always lovely, I think.

As far as beta-ing goes, I have no experience whatsoever. I've often considered getting one myself but everyone seems to have different ideas about what a beta actually does. But I'd be happy to read your stuff and give some feedback. I just don't really feel qualified to do beta-ing proper, if that makes any sense. Anyway, I'll reply to this with a screened comment with my email address so you can email me the fics if you're up for that.

Thanks for the lovely comment.♥

I'm not sure how to access screened comments because I'm incompetent.
Would you be able to tell me how to do that? *is embarrassed*
Thanks!

[ijustwishiwere]

If you can't see it then I'm the one who's incompetent. I thought you'd be able to see it if I replied to this thread generally but looks like I have to reply directly to one of your comments in order for it to work. Hang on~

Hello.

So, I really liked this. I like most/all things you write, so I suppose that compliment could be stressed a bit more. But uh, it really... I enjoy the way you work with time elapsing and the relationships between everybody and really, really, I think this is great the way it is.

The last line also was pretty strong. (: I wish I had more... lovely things to say, but I'm not so good at this. Great job!

[ijustwishiwere]

Thank you for the flattering comment. I love time lapse, it avoids a lot of boring/clumsy scenes and allows for shifting dynamics and exciting stuff like that.

The things you said were lovely enough for me!♥ Thanks for commenting.

LI FTW.

One itsy bitsy nitpick, which isn't so major, but Adam's parents at this point were divorced, so it would be his stepmother.

[ijustwishiwere]

IAWTC!

Ooh, I didn't know that. That's really interesting. I was sure bits of my TBS info/chronology were off for this. Anyway, thanks for pointing that out. & for commenting generally. :D

Hey Iris. You already have a vague idea about my opinions on this; although you only get my happy opinions because I hate people. But anyways, I'm apparently still completely smashed, as I discovered when I attempted to read this, so I figure, "Hey, I'm gonna talk to Iris while I'm completely smashed." Except it's not really talking to you, 'cause this is a comment. Oh, woe is me.
I picked this guy within like, five minutes, and yes, he was the one. Got too drunk to sleep with him, and he's going back to NWT on Friday, so I fucked up, but I still have amazing tastes.
I don't know where Celina went. I passed out and now I'm all alone. Suspicious. I bet I was raped of something. I'm a prime candidate for rape.

I am probably going to look back on this later and be horrified. Hm. You are probably going to look at this and be horrified. Horror!

I'm gonna shut up not. <3

*now

You know, I always bitch out people who are like, "Hey, I'm so drunk right now" or like, "Hey, I'm so high right now" and then I totally do it. No one is on MSN, so I think I might continue commenting you; this could be dangerous. But we shall not panic. Everything will be okay.

I should go back to sleep. Oh, glorious sleep.

[ijustwishiwere]

You hypocrite! O: But, you know what, I love hypocrisy. It's so cute and ridiculous and lovable. Where the hell are you anyway? & I can so screen these comments so that no one else can see if you want 'cause it could be dangereuse indeed.

Sleep is cosy. And useful. So it might be a good idea.

oh, this was beautiful! =]

Thank you. =D
