lmaooo i was frantically doing last-minute packing this morning & rushing to merge some code & was like "yeah that fic is a million words long, i won't get any emails for a while" but then i checked my email on a whim and THERE YOU WERE BLOWIN IT UP???? i about got knocked over lol
(i was delighted all the way down to my toes, haha, thank you for DEVOURING it (on the clock apparently lollollol), plz know i read every comment and was preening immaculately)
i'm just gonna batch-reply to your reply-able comments over here since. that seems easier than eight separate threads LOL
* i'm so delighted to hear you're watching corvid vids more lately :DDD they're such ANIMATED little dudes, aren't they? i just. never get tired of watching bird body language dreamy sigh. (there's a whole segment in the fic that was written directly after i got back from birding at a local beach, and man it must be the feeling those cool plein air painter peeps get, i was just like "oh yeah let's commit those bird-y antics i just saw directly to prose" and then i did and it felt GREAT lol)
* your comments about "naesala as department director" DID remind me of some ancient tumblr post where i was spitballing an AU where Naesala is a director at the CIA. which was such a fun idea i was like "did i ever write that." the answer is: yeah, a little bit, except it stalled out b/c CIA peeps are waaaay cagier when you randomly call them up like "hi hello can you tell me about your job, it's for fanfiction" than NSA peeps are >>>:(((( spoilsports!!! but yeah 100% agree he'd be such an objectively good director and i would hate him so goddamn much lol
* so glad i could wreck your whole meeting with naesala!whump :P (i'm generally kind of emotionally removed in certain sense when writing stuff, but that whole sequence, i did have to step away from the keyboard and pace a bunch of times just 'cause of, like, ow. it hurt! it did not feel great beating the shit out of him that hard!!)
* okay when i got your one-sentence comment on ch6 i lol'd so hard and also said THANK GOD aloud haha. because, see, when i was writing the last part of ch6, i was sitting there like "ok i thought i was just gonna write reyson being pissed, but this is now the hottest sex i've ever written, i am on absolute fire, why does this scene require tens of thousands of words of preamble, like i'd be tempted to peel it off and make it a standalone or something just to give it wider readership exCEPT IT DOESN'T WORK WITHOUT THE TENS OF THOUSANDS OF WORDS OF PREAMBLE, so uhhh, hope somebody gets far enough in to appreciate. what's happening. there." and you were there. thank you krad i am glad it is appreciated lol
* EXCITING THINGS AFOOT CAN'T WAIT TO FINISH WRITING SOME BEGNION SHIT WHILE I'M SKIING DOWN MOUNTAINS
