[ With each critique, Alex feels his tense muscles relax. Okay, yes, she's telling him he's not great at this; it's true, he wrote and rewrote this thing, she does not want to see all the wasted paper he used, the two thesauruses he kept flipping through in Leon's library. But... But that does mean she liked some of it...right? ]
