PS the Chinese menu? Brilliance.

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

Yay! Thank you! *twirls you* The Chinese menu was ALL SLOD'S DOING. I love it, as well.

If it's possible to write good and bad!fic at the same time, you just did. That was pure evil genius!

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

*cackles like an evil genius* Thank you!

[bentrumors.livejournal.com]

You so suck at badfic. *hearts Ray's cheezie fingers*

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

cheetos hands!! Fraser'll come over and lick them for him...

[celli]

Squee!

(Dief, out of the Cheetos.)

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

Dief! Thank you for your squee!

[fairestcat]

[defaultlyric.livejournal.com]

I love this so much, I can't even say.

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

Textual rendering not needed! Glad you enjoyed!

[lynnmonster.livejournal.com]

It's okay if you're flirting with me! Because I LOOOOOOOVE YOU. Brilliant job!

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

I will flirt with you anytime! And so will Fraser! *smoooooch*

[lilac-one.livejournal.com]

U R A Genius!

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

THANK U!

[shayheyred.livejournal.com]

...am totally fucking speechless.
No, wait, I'm not. This is... incredible. How much do I love the idea, the creativity for this? And how much do I adore you for the little touches, the fact that Ray K writes notes on the back of Benton's stationery, or the fact Benton has printed stationery, or that Ray V always signs the name of his gang on his notes, or that Benton is a member of The Subversive Authors Club, or that at the very end, there is an honest to goodness sweet and genuine and sly moment in Fraser's last note.

Kid, this may have started out as the wrongest of the wrong bad!fic prompts, but of all the ones I've read (which is most of them), and not just because you started with my dopey prompt, I find this to be the most wonderful story of all.

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

Yay, I'm so glad you like! I know you and your love of epistolary fic, so I was hoping this would be the perfect combination for one of my very favorite girls!

*hugs*

[hieronymousmosh.livejournal.com]

That. Was awesome.

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

oohh, so is your icon!

[marcolette.livejournal.com]

Okay, you guys win at fic.

As a rule, I love epistolary stories, but you went above and beyond with the perfect images with all the details -- Ray K's responses written on the back of original notes and the menu, with the front side showing through; the different handwriting appropriate to the characters.

And then, there is, of course, the story, in which you've managed to say so much with so little and keep everybody in character, even as kids. This story made me smile more than anything has in a long time. Yay you!

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

Yay for smiling! I'm so happy you had fun reading it!

[j-s-cavalcante.livejournal.com]

Okay, there have been some GREAT entries in this challenge, but I'm sitting here flabbergasted after reading this one. YOU. FUCKING. RULE! A great story, the letters, the handwriting, the characterizations, the spin-the-bottle faux pas, Ray writing on the back of the stationery (with smudges and ink spots and so on), Stella's high-school girl "purple" prose (and her hating Vecchio!)--but when I saw the note from Ray on the back of the Chinese restaurant menu!!--I keeled over ded! You killed me!

I bow before your genius.

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

hee, thank you! It was a fantastic collaboration with Slod, and I give her all the credit for coming up with the Chinese menu.

[shoemaster.livejournal.com]

<33333333333333333333333333 My fangirl is going squee, my font nerd is going nuts and oh my god, the back of the chinese take out menu. That was so cute.

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

...and my arms are going PAUL GROSS! \o/!!

[bluebrocade.livejournal.com]

Brilliant! Especially the cheetos fingerprints and them "writing" on the back of other notes. You win!

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

seriously, I think my favorite part are the cheetos. Thank you!

<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

This is so awesome, and you have no idea how much i am resisting saying "but i want moooooooooooore!"

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

*eyes you* Don't think you can use your cute kitty icon to bribe me! Esp. after you less than threed me over the cliff!!!


(istillheartyou)

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

haha, that was the one thing I felt certain about -- Fraser HAD to have his own stationery. (with a maple leaf, no less!)

[raucousraven.livejournal.com]

This? Was an epistolatory masterpiece to rival Clarissa. Actually, these characters didn't make me want to spork out my own brain, and also made me laugh in something that was not disgust, so it whupped Clarissa hands down and is now ready to take on the almighty Pride&Prejudice liek WO! Also, the purple letter from ShEL was totally my favourite.

And now I want the scene where the 'Tudes break out the close harmony on catchy poptunes, right before moving into synchronised high kicks while tossing their leather jackets in the air. *jazz hands* YEAH!

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

I would pay good money to see Ray Vecchio doing jazz hands, that's for SURE. Glad you enjoyed!

[timian.livejournal.com]

Yes, but now I want more. That was AWESOME.

[lyra-sena.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I want more, too!!
