What's clever about these two fics, and it's why I'm glad you posted the Nate one first, is that it would be easy, in isolation to side strongly with either Rachel or Nate. But you make us feel symnpathy - more, empathy - for each one of them, for different reasons. Their "plight" also binds them, in a strange way, when on the surface it should simply drive them apart. That's intelligent writing. Brava.

You are an angel. Just so you know.

I did have two agendas posting Nate's story first. 1)Lure people in with porn, and 2)Make people like Nate before they get Rachel's side of the story. Because bare-bones plot-wise, Rachel's story is probably the more sympathetic of the two. But in fiction, as in life, it's so much more complicated than that.

Thank you, my dear.
