Thanks once again for your feedback.

At least she's not reflexively saying "no".

Thanks, Anka. I'll keep these in mind. (Although, I've written far enough in advance that I think I only have one more "no" to go.) I didn't know Seattle was such a scholarly city.
And to all those who are so sure she'll crumble, I'll try not to remind you of the last fic that I wrote--the only full-length fic--where they get to the end and finally decide they can be friends. I'm sure this won't end this way. No way. Possibly not. Uh uh.
