You're actually trying to kill me with the level of glee and flattery, aren't you? I see your game.

I have this really strong urge to say I love your work too but I don't know why - I just know I recognise your name and it brings up a vague sense of awesome. Hmm.

I've taken up distracting one of my RL friends with fic. He's brilliant, but he's also straight and male, and I keep forgetting when there's sex. I'm too used to it! Telling him this in no way helps, of course - he might have discovered fanfic but he doesn't need to know about the love of gay porn!
