If I don't do a sequel, am I in trouble? wink


Lady_WinterCelchu: Thank you. grin

Master_Vicky: Thank you. happy

Wes_Janson: Thank you. happy

Marsa: I love first person stories. wink I'm glad you liked this one anyway, though. happy I was thinking of it occurring a few years before SotP, but it's vague on purpose. tongue Anyway, thank you. happy

Michele: blush Thanks! grin I'm glad you like the characterization, I thought it seemed almost too calm for Mara. tongue As for a sequel - you know, I almost put it up there "There will be no sequel! Don't ask!" but I didn't, so I guess I'll have to consider it now. wink

MJSLSBS: You shouldn't read fanfic before school, then. tongue Thank you. grin

Jedi_Trace: The L/M is supporting the idea, not the other way around in this one. Thank you. grin

Tekli_theInsane: It was an interesting change for me, too. I've never done a purely friendship L/M thing before, but I think it worked out well. Anyway, thank you. blush The concept is just, well, my thoughts on the matter, pretty much.

VaderLVR64: Thank you. grin It felt really different (and I think L/M is almost habit for me now silly ) and I'm glad you think it turned out well. happy

Stormtrooper_Shrink: Have I ever told you that you have an unusual username? silly Back on topic. Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. And that you think it's true. wink

Rivad_Bacar: I guess that's 'request for sequel' number two. wink I don't know yet. silly

Gabri_Jade: I thought about how Luke would get angry, and decided he was most definitely not the yelling type. Neither is Mara, exactly, but she's definitely more expressive about it. tongue I like your analyzation of why Mara was hurt by Luke not following - I mean, that's kind of what I was thinking, but mostly on a subconscious level. And you're right. happy Thank you, darling. love

J_M_Bulldog: Thank you. happy And that's request number three.

kayladie97: blush You're going to make my head swell until it explodes. wink I started out pretty slowly, and I just kind of wanted to explore a bit how Luke and Mara would have interacted through the years. And of course Mara can make him angry like no one else! mischief I think it even says so in VotF, or something.

As I said to someone else up above, the L/M supports the idea, not the other way around. For me, this story was probably more about the concept that the vehicle I chose to write it in. It's something I've been thinking a lot about recently, and this viggie really just helped me solidify my thoughts. silly

Hey! I posted something, like, a week or two ago in Saga! That's 'a while' now? wink I think I'm in trouble. shock

I think that's the fourth request for a sequel. Oh boy.

Amsie: *major hugs* I'm honored, too. love Love you. grin *hugs*

Definitely!!! grin grin


Hey! I posted something, like, a week or two ago in Saga! That's 'a while' now?

You're talking about Second Chances, the A/P viggie? I must have overlooked it, but I went and read it moments ago and left you FB there!

I suppose what I really meant was that we hadn't seen anything else in the Temperature Series lately! I'm REALLY wanting another one of those! [face_pleading]

happy happy happy

Oh, oba, this is so beautiful. I love it so much--I was really emotional yesterday when I read it, and I just couldn't respond. I cried...really, really cried.
*hugs* I love you, girl. And I'd love to see a sequel, too.

Ariapaige: Thank you. blush I'm glad you like the ending. I wanted to end it on a hopeful note, but still keep the emphasis on her thoughts. happy Was is that, fifth request for a sequel? I'm dooomed.

kayladie97: Great! tongue I shouldn't have asked that, should I? tongue Yeah, I meant the A/P. wink As for the Temperature Series, I thought I said I would end it at 12 viggies. There are twelve, aren't there? tongue I started another, but it stalled, so I've rather given up on the series. tongue

J_M_Bulldog: It was a moment of stupidity. wink

Emmi: *huggles* Thank you. blush I got a tight throat when writing it, not at the fic itself, but it was inspired by, really. happy I think this fic makes readers think about real life experiences.

Burkie: happy happy happy happy happy

I just went and checked your bio and there are only ELEVEN!!!! You skipped 8 when you were naming them.

LOOPHOLE!!!! grin grin grin grin grin

Now you have to write another! I vote for Mara giving birth... wink

Edit: And no trying to count this one as one either! tongue

You should have heard me saying, "Shoot! Shoot!" and frantically checking my bio. tongue

I'll try to come up with something. (No quoting Yoda allowed.) I'm not promising anything. wink Now, try not to act gleeful. wink

Jedikma: Thank you! grin I just kept thinking about it, what can I say? wink And you know, it would technically be the 13 Temperature vig. wink I remember why 8 isn't listed - I lost the link and forgot to find it. *sighs* tongue

rogue11lovesjag: Thank you! grin grin
