Oh my heavens, Becca, this is just so terrible. I demand you ~*~inflict~*~ me with another RIGHT AWAY.

LOL, okay, actually, this is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE of terrible! IT IS POSSIBLY THE GREATEST THING I'VE SEEN ALL DAY! I love the way they talk and I love how this essentially lays the groundwork for the fishing jokes Roy makes during canon. Ahhh, all of their amazing little codes and injokes, THE BEST.

So to sum it up, *_____* and ♥_______♥ and I LOVE THIS AND ALSO YOU FOREVER!

hahaha, my rejected title for this fic: "In Which Becca Is Completely Incapable of Writing Roy and Riza Doing Anything Except Speaking in Six Layers of Ridiculous Code." IT IS A SICKNESS. I am sure there are very occasional times they speak like normal people, I just can't ever write them doing it! Anyway I am super glad you like it. <3333

(Other rejected title: "In Which Aerugan Arms Smugglers Tragically Cockblock.")

Hahaha, WELL I APPRECIATE YOUR INABILITY TO DO OTHERWISE. I, for one, enjoy it a lot!

And that 2nd rejected title... LOLOLOL, PRETTY MUCH. One of the other things I thought about after initially commenting is how that vacation could have provided with so much ample opportunity for Kissing, Etc! BUT ALAS, THEY WERE THWARTED!

I content myself by imagining that Riza exacted great justice upon the smugglers for ruining her week so.

In my head that vacation was totally an attempt to break the canon-long responsibility-imposed romantic stalemate . . . and alas, they probably took entirely the wrong lesson from its tragic cancellation. (Na Yeo Kyeung would approve though. No romance UNTIL OUR COUNTRY IS LIBERATED!)

The smugglers, however, totally got what they deserved.

I JUST CAME HERE TO SAY THAT MARGO'S FEELINGS ARE MY FEELINGS (SO EXCELLENT) AND ALSO THAT THE SECOND REJECTED TITLE IS PERFECTION (as is the first rejected one, of course, but that one did not make me go pfffffffft)

[bookelfe]

IT IS NOT VERY DIGNIFIED AS A TITLE

BUT THEN AGAIN THIS IS NOT VERY DIGNIFIED AS A FIC . . . .
