So this is that gigantic fic I was working on for my whole week off instead of my
sgabigbang fic. It's a monster size-wise, but I'm kind of proud of it.
Ugh. I also had to break it into more pieces then it was meant to be. *kicks LJ text box size*

Following his death, Madison has to face her own fears and emotions, even as someone new comes into her life. Joe was a student of her uncle's and now he's sorting through Rodney's notebook legacy. But a mysterious notebook surfaces and Madison will be forced to face just how much of her family's genius—or madness—she inherited. And in the end, Joe and she may have more in common than she ever realized.

Author's Notes: I don't know if this has been done before or not. I'm hoping not, but rather surprised if it hasn't. This entire fic is based off the play Proof by David Auburn: a truly good piece of theater. A few lines of dialogue throughout are taken directly from the play (especially just about any line referencing math and the band comments). The character Kristine, in the play is actually the main character's sister, but as Madison doesn't have an older sibling, I changed it to close friend.
Beta Thanks: The wonderful
