Schmidt Happens

There was this one girl, right. This one time. And you picked her up in an overly bright bar with over priced cocktails. Coach was chatting up her friend, and Winston was still playing basketball overseas

I haven't ever actually seen New Girl, but I couldn't help reading this fic, and I'm so glad that I did! I mean, I know nothing about the character, but if he's the kind of guy on whom that sort of prompt can be given then your characterization is absolutely wonderful! I mean, I always like the ego-centric, self-absorbed types with a whole host of insecurities just below the surface, so your fic has single-handedly made me like this character whose face I haven't so much as seen. And it's a brilliant fic in its own right; loved the writing style; I love how self-aware the fic is, even though it's dealing with a character who is not!

Thank you!!!!! :) I've never written New Girl fic and I've only seen a hand full of episodes, but I LOVE Schmidt and I'm so glad that this worked! Schmidt is pretty awesome and pretty ridiculous. Thanks, so much for the feedback.

I've heard A LOT about it recently (mostly people seem surprised by the fact that they like it because they'd expected it to be typical and basic or something) and it sounds good! But I think you brought out both the awesomeness and the ridiculousness, which honestly I think is really hard to do, because most people tend to make characters...hotter than they are? if that makes sense, haha. But I mean, like, it's hard to get the dorkiness and the ridiculousness right and you did, very epically so :D
