OH MY GOD.

Please, let me just take a moment to flail over the fact that you've written White Collar! I love your writing so much, absolutely everything you write, and I literally did a giddy little dance when I saw Peter/Neal/Elizabeth fic from you on my screen. :D This is funny, and hot, and sweet, and has everything I love about all three of these fabulous characters. (Especially the part where Peter points out that Elizabeth would never leave him, no matter how much he told her to.)

Yes! Yes! This was fantastic and hot and sweet and I loved the continual cycle of them all getting turned on by the other.

*clappy hands of glee* Just so perfect, every bit of it! <333

The only thing I like about this is how there's no way it could be actual canon, and that breaks my heart. It's so good! With Neal being adorable and Peter being not-so-self-aware and Elizabeth being my absolute favorite all the time. Your characters are great and the story is great and tonight's ep will absolutely break my heart, I'm sure of it.

oh, heee, see, I think this is actually going to be really close to canon! (well, except for the threesome part.)

Personally I am sure they are going to break *MY* heart, because what I really want is the show that is Peter and Elizabeth Burke, sekrit masterminds, lovingly recruiting Neal into their vast criminal empire and also their bedroom. *g*

Oh, you mean, Peter wanted Neal as a partner all along, so he did some sketchy things to make that happen? I was honestly so shocked by the last episode that all I could think was "HOMG HE'S TOTES EVIL," buuut your version makes a lot more sense to me. We'll find out soon enough, I suppose.

That was absolutely delightful! I loved how seamlessly you had Peter playing Kate and yet still being the good guy and looking out for Neal's best interests:)

Okay, that's it. I'm officially disappointed with tonight's episode even though I haven't even seen it! /o\!

This was wonderful. I could feel the hearts in my eyes when this showed up on my flist.

Oooo, brilliant explanation for Peter knowing more about Kate whereabouts than he'd let on to Neal and hot to boot!

HOW AWESOME IS THIS??? SUPER AWESOME OMG.

Elizabeth folded her arms and raised her eyebrows, sternly.

My absolute favorite thing about Elizabeth is that she does 90% of her communicating nonverbally. It's so amazing.

And, yeah, there aren't many other ways the Peter-has-Kate thing could go, because no way is Peter the bad guy and there's really no other decent explanation for it.

*SQUEALS, WHOOPS, GOES TO READ*

Holy fuck that was good! All other words are lost in hotness...

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY WHITE COLLAR!! *flails*

This made me very happy. They should do it this way, is my thinking.

Oh yay! I'm so glad to see you here! And I liked the story very very much!

The voices were terrific - especially Peter's. Thank you for sharing.

I love how the sex was detailed, but not overly so - it left some stuff to the imagination which I think was really hot.

\o/ \o/ \o/

Neal's an excited puppy! Awkward confession to Elizabeth!

He'd wanted Neal, he'd gotten him. A little more of him than Peter knew what to do with.

How sweeeet it is! /Jackie Gleason

*deep sigh* Ah, how very much I love you. :)

Thank you so much!

I love this - the overarching con, the way Neal fails to realise that he clearly means an awful lot more to Peter than any other criminal he's caught, and that while Peter is very clever and very kind, he is less adept at the people stuff than Neal is, so it was great to see the dynamic change up once Neal has made his decision. I can totally see Peter wanting to have Neal, to almost own him, without noticing or realising the sexual undertones.

Plus, the way you worked with El made me smile so much - this threesome is just so so much better than Neal/Peter would be without her, and more functional. I particularly like that you had her totally in control with Peter, but still blushing and getting a bit flustered with Neal.

So, um, yeah. This is awesome. I'm very glad I read it before I go and break my heart now... Hope you do more in this fandom and ship!

Absolutely loved this. I really liked your take on Peter and Neal's character and it was totally hot on top of that.

I read this last night, and then this morning I watched the new episode, and I think I'm going to spend the rest of my day with giant hearts in my eyes! I loved how you managed to have both Peter and Neal be clueless about different things; I can never decide which of the two of them should be the one the other two have to convince. And then the actual episode basically had Peter hunting down Kate to do the same kind of warning-her-off thing! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

FABULOUSLY PERFECT ♥!

That is perfect. Hot and perfect. I want to say more than that, but those are the two words that keep springing to mind.

There's a moment in a new fandom, that first time you read a story that perfectly captures the characters as you see them, that works so well with canon that everything just slots into place inside your head, and you go from thinking that a pairing could be a possibility to knowing that this is how it will (or at least should) work out. And this is it.

This is a beautiful story that captures all three of them perfectly. It captures how they see themselves and how they see each other, and there are so many wonderful nuances.

I love that you explained away Kate, who never quite felt real in her distress, who never really showed why Neal felt so strongly for her. I love that Peter was able to be behind her disappearance but do it for a good reason (it's so like him to be devious and sneaky to make sure the right thing gets done) and I love that Peter's reason, the entire time, would be Neal himself. But Neal and Elizabeth would be the ones to recognise it as love.

I love how deftly you've handled the three different POVs, how everyone feels like themselves. How utterly awesome Elizabeth is, accepting and supportive; how Neal is brilliant and passionate, but surprisingly sweet beneath that; how Peter can be a law-enforcing badass mastermind excellent FBI agent and devoted, deeply-loving husband but still be the guy who doesn't quite understand relationships and the process of falling in love.

They're *them*. And this is perfect.

Yes! Loved this. It worked for me on practically every single level EVER.

OH MY GOD *froths* AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING. ♥

that was so absolutely fantastic. okay, so a hot OT3 scene is wonderful, but it's just the whole lot of this, how bright eyed Neil is, a kickass El and what had me rolling around is glee is your AMAZING Peter, as much everything he says and does but also how you write the little ticks and attitudes that makes him made of awesome. *grins*

You just made me read a threesome fic, you saucy minx. Trust me when I say that that DOES NOT HAPPEN. Until now, that is.


This show does seem to just beg for it though, doesn't it?

Oh. I'd had a moderately panic-inducing day, and then I got home to find a link to this on my flist, and all my stress sort of trickled meekly out of my ears. I love this! I love Neal/Peter/Elizabeth to bits, and I love the way the switching perspectives kept the story fresh while gradually ratcheting the tension higher and higher and higher.

And your character voices were so spot-on -- not a single wrong note to pull me out of the story -- that I am terribly jealous. And happy. And also jealous.

Anyway: this made my evening :)

Do you know what the best thing is? Two days later, I still have trouble remembering what was in your fic and what was in the actual episode. Ninety-nine percent of the time? It was in the actual episode! GLEE GLEE GLEE GLEE GLEE

This show, I can't even. *FLAIL*

LOLOL I was so busy flailing over show that I forgot to tell you how SCORCHINGLY MIND-BENDINGLY HOT this was. Well it was.

UNF.

White Collar, yaaaaaaaay!!!

I loved this! Neal is so worldly and so vulnerable at the same time; that's what I love about the show and it came across so perfectly here! :D

SWEET JESUS YES.

Ok. When the show came on, would you like to know what I thought, IMMEDIATELY?

"Oh man, Neal and Peter should totally have sex. A lot."

And when I found out Peter was married?

"OH SNAP HAWT THREESOME ACTION YESSSS."

Followed closely by: "Damn, I wish this was one of Astolat's fandoms."

CUE YOU READING MY MIND/RECEIVING MY PRAYERS. HALLELUJAH.

(P.S.: I'm trying to assemble a recs list, and you [as in, your ENTIRE SITE] is the first post! Yay!)

*\o/* I love this!

you know, that you`ve pulled me straight into another fandom, just to understand what you`re writing about, right ? :) AND SUCH A SWEET/HOT/CHEEKY FANDOM IT IS !!!! XD

this is the best thing I've ever read.

you.

I.

ugh.

That was amazing and I really enjoyed reading it. Thanks for writing and sharing it :D .

This is exactly how I would like the show to go :)

:D Seriously, d-face is about all I'm currently capable of.

Amazing as always *beams* also, very excited to see you showing an interest in this fandom honey :)

I think I just died and went to heaven. \o/

This is so fantastic that I'm now officially late for work. This is exactly the sexual dynamic I love for these three. GUH.

*adds to mems*

This was really good! :)

Seriously: you do such a good job with it, esp. with the OT3 and the character voices. Need more!

I didn't know you wrote WC! Why didn't I know you wrote WC, and porny happy-end-y threesome-y WC at that; I would've watched the show ages ago. In other words, this was wonderful and hot and totally, totally what I was secretly hoping would happen after that ominous cliffhanger. ♥

What a happy story (not that I don't like unhappy too!). Thanks.
