ER - The Roomies #30 - Because he found her...in more ways than one.

DaveAbbyLuver · 07-21-2006, 10:35 AM

Welcome to ROOMIEVILLE... An Appreciation Thread for Ray/Neela

Hop aboard the Insanity Express to Loserville, a sister thread for Morris and Jane.

Made by Just Tracy

This thread is devoted to the pairing of Neela Rasgotra and Ray Barnett. Neela is a smart, by-the-book girl, and Ray is a doctor, in a rock-band boy's body. Both met in season 11 and the hints and sparks have been flying since. From the first casual flirt, to the snowballs thrown, to the invitation to become roommates, these two are meant to be. And this is just the beginning of their story.

Need more reasons? Check out the Ray/Neela Ship_Manifesto essay over at Livejournal: How Come No One Told Me You Were Such A Badass?, by Fi (fc2001)

Wow! New thread!! I LOVE the title!!!

grsfan, you already know how much I like your fic, I don't need to say it again!

And you're having a huge success. It's just one person thinking the last 2 chapters were not too great, but she/he's loving the fic anyway. The rest of us totally love your fic! You're really doing an amazing job!

I couldn't remember if we'd decided on a title or not, so I made one up. I can change it if there's one you'd rather have. Just let me know.

gsrfan: I am loving your fic, so don't worry about it. You can't please everyone, but most people are happy with it, I think. So don't worry.

~Ash

gsrfan · 07-21-2006, 12:13 PM

Thanks for the comments guys, sorry for sounding whiny earlier, I was just feeling a bit sorry for myself. Having a bit of trouble at home and that review made me feel a little down. But you're totally right, it's one review out of over 100, so I should just take the criticism and keep going.

Feeling much better now, so I'm off to write some more.

Love the new title.

gsrfan

**neel luvs tony** · 07-21-2006, 12:23 PM

New thread. Thank you

Ash. I

Okay haven't read the whole fic , infact I have read the last few chapters you posted first (don't ask why I went backwards, have no idea myself), didn't find it dull at all, infact made me want to catch up all the fics I have missed . I am going to start reading yours from ch 1.

And I read the review, I got the feeling she wanted the roomies to hook up really fast. I agree with others just one review out of a 100 don't let that get you down.

lovebird · 07-21-2006, 06:55 PM

New Thread...wow I

the title!!!

gsrfan
Great fic...post more soon...

We can´t talk about spoilers here. Please reply in Spoilers thread...

sharstarz07 · 07-21-2006, 07:55 PM

I love the title! It's perfect...also, maybe to start things off, what do you think will happen in Season 13 for the Roomies? I'd love to see you all speculate

some1 · 07-22-2006, 04:29 AM

Hey guys

Elsa: love the arts!

I've got a new fic

It's linked to at the LJ and is also up at ff.net (yes, I actually remembered to do that this time). Before any confusion occurs (thanks for reminding me Ash), please remember that I'm spoiler free, so the story does not take the season 13 spoilers into account.

Will Neela continue to stay at Abby's or is there a possibility she will move back in with Ray (seriously doubt it) but just wondering?
