Eeeeeeeeee, I love it I love it!!! Bing absolutely nailed the nuances--the translation from the text to the vid is perfect. *loves!*

Rodney says, "Okay, yes, bye," and he counts two, three, four of Sheppard's slow, even, faraway breaths before he hangs up.

asd;lkjdf;lkjdgkj poor Rodney! Poor boys! I love the slowdown at the end, Rodney reluctant to hang up, wanting to hang on a little bit longer.
