...bleak and full of angst, but very clever.[1]
NUDGE NUDGE, WINK. WINK 3: My favorite story was Courtney Gray's THE BLUE FIGUERINE — original and nicely done! Lovely twists and turns which fit my libido and literary mind. Can't give too many details as it would spoil the story. [2]
1993
... sad and intense and wonderful. I expected it to be a 'It's a wonderful life' rewrite, and it surprised me more than once. What would Ray's life be like if he had never been partnered with Bodie? And what would he do to get him back...[3]

This story is one of my favourite. It explores the possibilities of the what-if and the careful what you wish for concepts in the most striking way. What would happen if one or the other of the Lads wished they have never met before? So many possibilities...:) There is quite a lot of angst in this story but also a delicate touch that I love.[4]
I found this fic very disturbing and eerie in parts - your mind kind of twists around the concept. But it was very well done (and ultimately hopeful, I thought). I sometimes long for a sequel or a companion piece from Bodie's POV.[5]
Yes, it is eerie and disturbing - that's probably why I love it so much - I long for a sequel or Bodie's pov, too. I agree that it is hopeful, though, or at least that's how I want to think *g* ...and what about a soulless, desperate Bodie? sigh...:) Loved him in this story :) [6]
I too love this story and long for a sequel. Courtney has said she definitely is not going to write one but any other writer who wishes to do so has her full support and encouragement. Now we need to find a writer who loves the story as much as I do and who wants a sequel as much as I do.[7]
