This was a fun story! It was great to see Nellie get some time in the sun - and for her to discover that a lot of the time the branch doesn't really need a manager.
This definitely ended up feeling very much like something you could fit in canon - I could picture it in my head. Well done!
Author's Response:
Wow, high praise, thank you! Again, writing the character is loads of fun and after watching all those webisodes I love the concept so much that I felt there should be a S9 one.
Thanks for the reviews, as always!

This was funny, and again seems like you've gotten the voices down well. I loved Nellie and Oscar getting into a conversation about Downton Abbey, and the Creed line was on point - he's surprisingly difficult to get right, I think.
I'm glad to see you doing more of the Nellie-Erin exploration here, too...
Author's Response:
Appreciated! The Downton Abbey tie-in was downright serendipitous considering the whole plot of that finale involved money. And Creed is this weird enigma that makes sense even when he makes no sense. You're right, it's a fine line.
Nellie and Erin's friendship is so fun to write, Erin especially since her whole thing is bringing out the best in others.

Well. They had it coming. They left a power vacuum and she filled it. This is in fact the exact situation that allowed her to take power last time, so why not?
You've captured Nellie and Toby's voices VERY well here.
Author's Response:
Thank you! I thought it'd be best for her to take a stroll down memory lane and just usurp the role once again.
Also, apathetic Toby is best Toby.

Good job in getting all the character's voices down. Especially Creed. I could easily see him confusing Nellie for Meredith.
Also nice little moment there with Erin too. Always nice to get some support.
Author's Response:
Thanks! Again, writing all these characters has been an absolute joy. Gotta love Creed. He's always a treat to write.
Erin is such a sweetheart so I wanted her to reach out to Nellie, especially considering they're going through the same journey, in a way.

Nice job on having her deal with David. Yeah trying to hide something from the CEO would be bad business. Good take on Nellie with this one. Nice, short, and sweet.
Author's Response:
Thank you! Yeah, she's pretty scatterbrained in that she wants to do the right thing but doesn't know how to go about it. Plus her and David interacting was something we haven't seen and I wanted to play around with that a bit.
Thanks for the reviews!

An interesting premise to be sure. Sounds like fun. Onto the next chapter to see how this all shakes out.
Author's Response: Many thanks!
