I can't believe this is comment-less. It's wonderful!

[appending_fic]

Thanks for the comment. It took me a while to actually like it enough to finish, so I'm glad someone got enjoyment out of it.

oh, this was BRILLIANT. oh rudy, so fail and asexual and of course mike is the only one you'd ever even consider letting anywhere near you. and mike, with the repeated forgotten drunken snogging. <3333

Oh, I am glad to hear you liked it. It took forever for me to write it, and it was in fits and spurts that kept making the whole thing longer and longer.

So I'm glad to hear it paid off for some people.

And yeah, I wanted to poke a bit at Rudy's misanthropy and see where it went.

I love these boys, and I love what you've done with them.

I've never seen Rudy written as actually mostly uninterested in sex for its own sake before--incredibly socially awkward and fixated on Mike, but not uninterested. This was really well done, and hot. Going to re-read now!

[appending_fic]

Thank you so much! I was aware I was doing something a little different, which worried me. Glad you ended up liking it.

This is a great story! Poor Mike, trying to do what's best for Rudy without actually talking to him about it. I loved Rudy being basically Mike-sexual.

Aw, thanks. Glad to have feedback from these.

Geez, I just spent the past week trying to locate this fic. Somehow I went through every entry at scrimmettes and exaltedkarpoozi three times and didn't see the link.

It certainly lived up to my memory :)
