hey, it's been a while since I've had the pleasure of reading you, so thank you. This was lovely, I can see why Emily would be afraid of the future, and of Naomi, but im glad they were able to sort it out with the help of Katie!

I was also glad to see Jenna and Naomi were trying to make a change for the sake of Emily's happiness.
And it's always good when Gina makes an appearance!

Thanks, I loved it.

Awwww. This is adorable.
(I'm having a little difficulty typing because I have tears streaming down my cheeks. LOL I'm such a wuss :)).
I haven't read any post S4 fic, and one of the things that I most resent about S4 is that it very nearly destroyed Naomi/Emily for me as a ship (I didn't buy the nice easy "I've loved you since I was 12", oh-that's-ok-then fix up for a moment, to be honest) but this story actually made me feel it again. It reminded me why they were my first OTP, and for all that there is anxiety and insecurity there - in fact, because there is - it feels totally real, and yet incredibly romantic.
Unadulterated fluff? Maybe, but that's pretty much my favourite thing in the world, so you've made me very happy with this.
Thank you ♥

Aww, thanks so much for being lovely as always, Si♥

(Wuss is totally the code word for a person full of awesome by the way ;))

I'm with you on resenting S4, to be honest I think that's what's holding me back from writing, I mean, it was so damn depressing and lamely executed, that it's all a bit meh (which is a rubbish description but true nonetheless!)

Straight after S4 finished I wrote a quick one-shot about E/N going from the shed and how they'd deal with their reunion that night but I agree with you completely, that while that moment was lovely, it wasn't the quick fix solution to their problems, it was simply the start, and this one gave me a little chance to see how they'd continued to deal with putting their relationship back together.

I can't tell you how pleased I am that you liked this and that it helped you reconnect with them :) I love them so much that I can't not try and write them, you know?

Massive ♥ dude!

Meh is a totally apt description of the whole season, to be honest. It seems like they put so little thought, or heart, into the whole thing that it doesn't deserve more of a response than that (although my initial response was apoplectic rage, and it still is a lot of the time. I resisted the urge to write hate mail to JB but clearly a lot of people didn't, given that he's now deleted his Twitter LOL).

Looking forward to seeing the new multi-parter, when the muse grabs you again.
(Also Effy/Amy :D. G'wan, you know you want to ;)).

Massive ♥ back at ya!

[thecon12]

LOLL, I hate to disappoint you (Flis already told me about your Amy love) but I've never watched an episode of Dr Who in my life! I've caught bits of it during channel hopping but it's never grabbed me as something I'd want to watch. So no Effy/Amy from me, sorry :P (but she is cute, I'll give you that!)

<3

[mazzygreen17]

so so so happy that you've written a new fic. I read everything you write and this didn't disappoint. So so so lovely. sighs. a little tear. and then a smile for the ending. yay!

[thecon12]

Thanks so much, dude :) I really appreciate it!

Gah ♥

It's lovely to see Naomi finally being comfortable with being in love and not afraid to show it.

"I know," Naomi says and leans in to brush her nose against Emily's in an Eskimo kiss.

This made my heart melt <3

[thecon12]

Thanks a bunch for reading♥ :)
