I hope you don't mind bringing the last post over regarding BYBR by Plumsuede.

I think you have to be in the right headspace for it. That's why there was no way I was going to breeze through it. It would be a complete injustice. I started out reading and re-reading. Then I'd go back and highlight. Then I'd switch versions to PDF, because the Mobi version didn't show the images of artwork the author thoughtfully included. Then switch back to Mobi, because I couldn't highlight in PDF.

There are so many original characters that add SOOO much richness to the story. I've never cared for that, as it becomes AU (as was evident in someone else's fic,) but THIS is like caviar amongst all the other junk food. Don't get me wrong, there is quite a bit of really well written junk food, but this…I am amazed at the love put into this story. And all of the character just flow.

This was written over NINE years…it blows my mind!

No, of course not!

I don't have the time at the moment to do anything other than dip into old faves that I know inside out ..

I may be busy, but there's ALWAYS a few minutes here and there for Brian and Justin ...

.. and for Gale and Randy ..

I couldn't give them up completely, not even for a few days!!!

I don't blame you. YOU have SOOO much to do and it'd be difficult to sit and get lost in that right now.

"That pillow's not going to be able to walk for a week."

I've had this quote running around in my head for a couple of days (there's a lot of space there!

) so I finally had to go back and read it again!!

"I’ve never seen the delicious dimpling of his cheeks. (His ass cheeks, I mean. His face cheeks don’t dimple, and if they did, he’d probably undergo cosmetic surgery to get rid of the offending cuteness)."

I'm going to have to re-read that later. Thanks for reminding me. When you're ready, Fray is in the midst of writing a G/R story (under a Non de Plume). She's on Chapter 11 now, but I've only read 2 chapters. I told her I won't read it until she's finished.

Oh, I won't be reading anything that's not complete!!

It's no secret that I'm reading Beyond The Yellow Brick Road, but I had to share something cute.

There is a character who has a three year old daughter and from the moment she meets him, she is immediately smitten and claims ownership of him. When he's in the room, suddenly no one else matters. She calls him Brime Kinney! I laugh every time she says his name.

Aw, so cute!! Reminds me of Marta's "Magpie"!

I am so emotional right now about the story...in a good way, but it's so powerful.

Okay... I'm not ashamed to say that this is one of my most favorite fics ever and I read it all the time.

Some of it is just laugh out loud funny and I just had to read it again when I couldn't get rid of that quote!!!

I'd forgotten how funny some of these short stories are!!!
