I've read quite a number of faberry fanfiction and this is honestly my favourite.

This was funny, insightful, sweet, and just a plain good story.

I loved the run-down of movies Judy watched. You did a great job of laying out how Judy would likely react to this situation.

And this line made me burst out laughing...good thing no one else was around:

I had to admit, grudgingly, that her cookies were very good, even if they were vegan and consequently completely unnatural.

Thank you so much!

While this is a fictional piece... I just want to say that, not only is this an incredibly realistic portrayal, it gives me hope for my own religious parents. (Though I'm not quite sure they'd... uh... watch movies and base their beliefs off of this)

Thank you. Thank you so much for this.

I'm very happy that this gives you hope. I hope that things work out with them. These things take time.

Thank you.

She sent me cards. RSVP requests printed on heavy card stock with embossed lettering that smelled faintly of lilacs. There was always a ton of glitter in the envelopes.

"There is something very wrong with that girl," I complained as I swept up the glitter from the table. Quinn smirked as she continued eating her cereal.

This. scene. right. here. Laugh out loud funny. I freaking love Judy, and from a writer's point of view, I think it can be hard to capture her voice well, but this was so perfect. Just... perfect. And besides Judy, so was Quinn, AND Rachel. This was the utmost Rachel Berry, without her even being in the scene.

Basically I'm in love with this fic. So wonderful, so hilarious, and so very, very good.

I *loved* this! It was so great seeing it from Judy's POV. It was nice to know she accepted Quinn's happiness from seeing the girls interact rather than the movies.
