would you believe, Maggie and Sterling still interacting

I really couldn't tell you why these two are the only ones consistently getting themselves written. I do have other fics in the mill. Those fics are about exponentially more popular characters/ships. And yet.

Lovely vignette between them. I especially enjoy how you write Maggie.

[themonkeytwin]

Thanks! I love writing Maggie, this one person who isn't really part of Crimeworld but who can hold her own when she has to. :)

And then these past two installments.... I just love them too - I love the awkwardness, the mixed emotions, the confusion. The affection and anger and betrayal and confusion and all of it all wrapped up in and around each other. So many times the 'resolution' bits of arguments or stumbling blocks or Big Issues just seem a bit, And Then They Looked At Each Other And It Was Ok, y'know? I love that, just as with everything else in this slow burn fic, that you're taking your time with *this* too. hee. And I am totes excited for #8, like you don't even know. Don't. Even. Know...

So... On that note..... *mwahahahahahaaa...* *zooms off*

And Then They Looked At Each Other And It Was Ok

Yeah, I ... don't know if I've ever written that. I probably don't believe in it enough to be able to sell it. Relationships are hard work, forgiveness and reconciliation is hard work ... I could probably, at a pinch, do a And Then They Looked At Each Other And Knew That, Eventually, They Would Be Ok Again. But in any case, with these two, there are no easy or quick solutions.

And on that note .....

I forgot I hadn't replied to these yet :)

I probably don't believe in it enough to be able to sell it.
Yeah. I..... don't believe it at all. And actually, it annoys me. Because I can't help but be all "um... no, what happened before? Not ok. More than a look required here, people!!!!"

Which is why I love you. I'm sorry, but that's just the way it is and you're just going to have to deal with it. ;P

(As for sadistic... well... you say sadistic, I say awesome... potayto, potahto...)

[themonkeytwin]

Oh well, if that's just the way it is, I suppose I'll find some way to live with it.

:D

Potatoes! mmmmmmmmm
