Thanks for the link had a peek and it looks fun :)

Fun is a great descriptor. Like it's real enough to be believable, but on the whole, I'd say it's a fun read. I'm curious if the fandom will get to the point where it's not all canon-compliant or very-close to canon fics, or if it will stagnate in that "they're all so similar" kind of story.

I think even the bad times (as far as I've got) are put across without too much angst, they're real and there's feels but never weigh too heavy on the mood of the comic. It's well balanced.

Not read any of the fanfic, the idea of there being fanfic amuses me though so I'll have a peek once I'm all caught up.

There's about 1500 works so far, growing by the day. Not counting all the little ones on tumblr. It's a very fanfic-of-fanfic feel to it all, but that's okay. :)

Wait, how did I miss that one??? I thought I read all the longfic there was.

Wow! Something to look forward to, sweetie! :)

The comic is cute and light but still--real enough to be interesting. So of course I had to write like--one of the top 10 least-fluffy fics in the fandom. Because that's how I roll.
