I liked the original quite a bit - I have a soft spot for phone message fics, and that this one was one-sided just made it better. But you somehow took Rodney's Rodney-ness from his messages and spun it out into Elizabeth's life in a way I just did not see coming. I'm sitting here with a goofy grin on my face because I love the idea of McWeir, I just rarely see it done in a way that convinces me. Certainly I've never read one that packed quite this punch.
My favorite part, though? How Simon and Rodney both stole her pets. (Though I really liked the dedication of Rodney's book, too. *g*)
