I think what I love most about this is all the analysis, and the overthinking, and oh, they're so cute when they're being faintly manipulative asses, they really, really are.

You should post this at pike_2009.

Haha, thank you :D

Alas, I am too young for that community, but thank you for suggesting it :D

Chris, you think too much ;) Much love~

He does, indeed. This started off as a few lines of dialogue leading to smut, but then I found Christopher's head too fascinating to leave.

Thanks you for commenting :D

On one hand, this is pretty hot. On another, I find myself chuckling because these two are so alike and so bad at hiding themselves completely. You did a fantastic job of capturing that. :)

Thank you :D I'm glad it amused you - they definitely got me grinning a few times while I was writing.

Icon love!

Of course Jim's still reading him like a book. Nothing written in the past hundred years or so, but a paperback classic with a stained cover and crumbling pages. He would feel insecure and old and pathetic but only feels old. He's seen Jim when he thinks no one's watching, curled up somewhere warm and quiet with a book older than the two of them combined. Jim handles the pages like they'll fall apart at his touch. It's then that Christopher sees what's underneath all the bullshit and sexuality. It's vulnerable and sweet and no wonder Jim covers it up.

I love this image dearly.

Bravo for this, at how Pike knows and doesn't completely care how selfish he's being.

Thank you so much :D

Slightly OT, I just want to say I love your fics, but haven't commented because shy writer is shy :)

blcwriter August 28 2009, 11:54:28 UTC

Well, thank you! And you have nothing to be shy about-- this was a really wonderful fic.
