hooray! i love this fic - it's such great fun, and it is also what i want from BtS. which i haven't actually rewatched since we watched it (i am ASTONISHED you have only seen it five times. i feel like i could have accidentally watched it five times since then)(although, as i said earlier, i haven't). i feel like i could write some BtS for yuletide - although i would have to watch it again, at least once. and it would be something i'd quite liek to write - that's the problem with yuletide. for me - i know you have no problems with it ;) but it's just like 'ok, well... i'd prefer to write a different sort of fic'. but i can see by the sword. i'm glad someone wrote you some. and that there is some other by the sword fic in the world.

anyway - thank you for writing this commentary. i enjoyed learning about fencing, and about your 90s research. and the fact that someone your friends know is now accidentally in yoru fanfic :D
