A favor?

Hi all,

Anyone out and about who would  have the time to look over a fic for me?  It's a gift, and I can't ask my darling beta to edit a story that is intended for her.  Very bad form, I reckon.  

Specs for those interested:  J2  //  HS AU  //  R-ish?  //  Based on a prompt from the recipient.  A sort of coming of age tale with thunderstorms and tree houses.  A fair amount of angst here and there.  It's sitting at about 8k or so right now, and I anticipate it to top off at 10k or thereabouts.  I can send what I have over or we can wait a day or so when it's done.  No rush on it.  The dear has waited so long as it is.

Goodness, I feel like I just wrote a classified ad or something.  Anyway, thanks!

If you don't mind sending it off to an almost complete stranger, I'd be happy to take a look. J2 HS AU is one of my weaknesses.

I've always relied on the kindness of strangers... ♥

Thanks so much for taking the time, maichan! You're the best. Dashing off to send you a pm.

Are we breaking up? Is this us breaking up? Is it because I never write anything and you are sick of me?

..

Got your email. All good. Can't wait to see it :D Yay for climbing out of ruts!

You and me babe? We're in it for the long haul. You know that. Also, what is this icon that you have? Did you know that I had that photo on my desktop the entire time I was writing Handful? Very inspirational, that.

What do you mean there is 'no rush on it'? From reading the summary, I'd say we need this fic STAT. ;o)

Huge smile over here. This thing has taken me plum forever to write, and the end of this particular tunnel is finally in sight. Beta secured, so it won't be much longer now. ♥
