Thank you - firstly, for giving me so much potential to work with, which, by extension, equals a further 'thank you' for all the wonderful SN fic you've written over the years; you were one of the first writers I met in this fandom, and the first (and almost the only) one to interact with me as an equal, and to encourage me in my own writing - and, secondly, for such wonderful feedback. I am so glad that you enjoyed this, and felt it lived up to your original. I was a little worried about the slash, since the original fic really didn't go there, and I did try to rewrite the ending as gen; it just didn't want to go that way.

I had originally planned to tackle Like Sailing and Home Runs, btw, and have a couple of half-finished other-pov ficlets lying around now. They may surface at some time, possibly for next year's WiP Amnesty. Just so you know!

Many thanks again - it means a lot that you took the time to leave so much detailed commentary, and also thank you for reccing it in your own journal.
