Your plot and writing skills are fantastic. I love Norris and have always thought he should have had a bigger part in Vee's life. I totally adored Cassidy's maturation in this fic - I could "see" him as I read your words. And yea! for former Deputy Leo. He's such a great guy, and I love the way you twisted the "Leo-stoled-the-tapes" story into something more, and in such a cool way. Truly, your plot intricacies are superb. *bows in awe* I can completely see how this would have been done in chapters - it's terrific as it is, but would have been really cool doled out in pieces

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such detailed feedback. I really appreciate that. Yes, originally the last chapter was going to be 3 chapters - Logan goes to the Casablancas house and 1) Talks to Dick - finds out about Betina, 2) Talks to Kendall - finds out she was the "witness" and more detail on the Duncan/Kendall rendezvous 3) Sneaks into Cassidy's room while he's in the shower to copy all the phone numbers in his call log.
This chapter was going to be 5 - 6 chapters with Logan following up on the phone numbers - seeing Leo with his sister, going to the convalescence home, following Leo to the Coast Guard, etc.
If I had the time I would have laid out all the clues so that there would not have been so much expositions. As for the 'Veronica blames Logan' - well, she always does. Logan is wrong until proven right and Duncan is right until proven wrong.
But I didn't want to leave readers hanging while I am on my writing hiatus. I hope the story at least made sense.
This...was amazing...I learned alot reading this fic. You must have done some serious research. Loved the ending...Logan going back to Veronica and Veronica leaving the door open. It was so symbolic. But I still wanna know who is Lilly's father. Im a sucker for small details...like we never did find out about the spy pen or Logan's letter to Lilly last season, lol
Not too much research - mostly just about speedboats and guns. Yes, I like the ending, too. I didn't want to change the tone of the story and pretend everything is all fixed between them cause they are not even close. As for Lilly's father, I think it is Martin from "Ruskie Business". Meg didn't even give Duncan a second glance when she asked Veronica to find her secret admirer. She was cold to Chaz but said Martin was "nice but moony". I think he convinced her that he was over the moon for her. But her parents didn't like him because he wasn't good enough for their daughter. He was a jock, not a snotty rich boy. But that's just my opinion.
This was so friggin' incredible. Every chapter just made the story better and better. I'm amazed at how intricate and detailed you were. I think you did a fantastic job of taking stuff from earlier in the season and fitting it into your own, entirely different, mystery and story.
It was just...wow!!!
If my life was like your Veronica's, I don't know if I'd be able to manage. *Puts all chapters in memories* Thanks for sharing:)
Honestly, if I had Veronica's life, I would crawl into bed, pull the covers over my head and never come out! I'm glad the details worked for you. I had to write 4 pages of notes and a timeline to get everything to fit.
I'm happy to read that you enjoyed it and plan on enjoying it again. Thank you for leaving feedback.
Whew! It was hard work. I took me 3 DAYS (12 hours each day) to finish this chapter. But I didn't want to leave anyone hanging while I was on my writing hiatus.
Thank you for posting feedback. It means so much to me.
