abuseI can't say "thank you" enough for "Don't Panic!" and "Okay, NOW Panic!" It's absolutely bizarre to me that I've been reading these since... shortly before "Don't Panic!" was finished, and here it is, four years later. I sat down this weekend and after several hours (during which I drank no less than twenty cups of tea, cried something like ten times, and giggled too many times to count) read the entire thing from start to finish. This story is what fanfic should be: chock-full of detail, loveable and relatable characters, and something that makes the reader want to go back and reread the canon source immediately. (Which I would do right this moment if I wasn't already doing a reread of a wonderful Arthurian retelling, but my LotR reread might be next, whereas last week it was somewhere around #20.)

I've spent the past four years recommending these fics to all of my friends who have so much as heard of Lord of the Rings, and I will very enthusiastically continue to do so in the future. Thanks for the great experience, and I look forward to the time when I get to reread this and remember exactly why I added this to my favorites list years ago.

abuseI've been rereading this story and I happened to read this chapter at 11pm. You have incredible writing skill because I got a ridiculously large craving for yoghurt reading this, and had to wait until morning to get any. :P

abuseIt is hard to believe that I'm reading the final chapter of this story. It's been four years already, wow. What to say now? I only have to thank you for entertaining me for so long, it is the least I can do. Penny's adventures kept me hooked for more thant four years actually if you consider the first part of the story. Thank you for this, thank you for not leaving this tale unfinished and thank you for writing drabbles about Penny lol I completely understand your problem with finding time to write, I've been there already. I am glad, though, that you'll be able to still entertain us with short stories. I'm dying to start reading them. There are lots of aspects of Penny's future life that can still be explored. Brazilian hugs to you!

abuseOMG!

I don't check in for one month and u finished the story!

It was beautiful. I got so into it that at times I was yelling at Penny (or Halladan) out loud. My family thought I had finally lost what was left of my sanity.

but its over, now what am i going to do?

there are very few stories that can hold my attention like the Panic stories (The fact that I stuck with you through the hiatus of Doom proves my point) My life is gong to be very boring without this to check up on (I know, I need a life)

Thanks for these years, they flew by so quickly lookig forward to more stuff from you

abuseI loved it! And the story before and am kind of upset that it's all over now. It's so hard to find a well written story in fanfiction any more.

Thank you for continuing and FINISHING this lovely story! I'm sad to see this story end, even though it was extremely satisfying! I hope you write more soon, and thanks again!

abuseThis is my prize for making it through the school week. This is an amazing story and I really hope that you keep up with the ficlets. I really like the Doctor Who theory (Don't Blink was an awesome episode!). What more can I say? I love this story. Keep writing!

abuseThis was a wonderful ending to a wonderful story. Thank you, thank you, thank you for persevering through "Don't Panic" and "Okay, NOW Panic!" and creating an astonishingly complex, historically rich (and, of course, canonically accurate!) story.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Many accolades to you for your brilliant work.

abuseYou have done a great work with this story. You've given the minor charecters a life of their own, and I'm sorry to see it end, but its was a beautiful ending. Its bittersweet, but wonderful. A job well-done that I think even Tolkein would have approved of. I wish you the best with whatever the future holds for you, and good luck!

abuseAh, the end- or is it just the beginning? Haha. So technically, Penny. . . was her own ancestor? Completely full circle. An epic ending to an epic fic.
This has been a wonerful journey with 'Don't Panic' and 'Okay, Now Panic!'- I'm so sad that it's over! It's been great, and I'm going to miss looking forward to the updates! Ah well, it had to end sometime. . .
Anyhow, all I can say is that I've enjoyed Penny's story, and will be waiting to see what else you come up with in the future.
Happy writing!

abuseI just wanted to thank you for this wonderful story. I’m not a good reviewer (sorry) but I wanted to let you know that I have really enjoyed it…and have followed it for a long time. So strange to think it’s the end… I don’t know what else to say…except;

Thank you

abuseThat was wonderful! You did such a good job with it all, from the start with making a real OFC in the face of such a Sue-ish premise and sticking with your plot and quality of writing all the way to the end. It was a pleasure to read.

Congrats!

abuseI had fallen behind, so I had the three last chapters left to read...I had intended to finish chapter 58 tonight and keep stringing it out as a sort of reward for myself for getting things done, but instead I stayed up nearly two hours past when I had intended to finish the story all in one go. Now I'm all weepy, even if I did repeatedly go "HA!" at the reveal of Penny being her own great-great-great-*insert appropriate number of 'greats'*-grandmother. I'm sure my neighbors were thrilled.

Congratulations on not only writing a truly epic fanfic, but actually finishing it and doing so in a very satisfactory way. I'm sad, of course, that it's over (it had become something of a constant in my view - the sun rises and sets, the seasons change, and Boz keeps chipping away at the Panic stories), but in all honesty, this is probably where things should leave off (at least, apart from those odds and ends you've mentioned).

abuseOh, that was just the most perfect end to it all! Go the cyclic storyline! I'm just glad there was a semi-happy ending for most of those involved, and that you brought it to such a nifty close.

*Exponentially happy sigh...*
