I knew this was going to be good so I put on "Close Your Eyes" and listened to it fully once before reading this. (Mistake. I was a blobbering mess.)

It's strange to think my first real encounter with the online fandom was with you and your writing - way back in the end of S2 when we hadn't yet been scared by Becoming or any of the pain that came after. I travelled to one of your earlier boards and never really stopped visiting - and it's been at least six years. And B/A means more to me now then it did then - thanks for putting all those feelings into words. Great, great job.

Thanks.
(... and I hope the muse stays active because I want to keep on reading fic from you for a long, long time, ok? *g*)
