Huh. Topping from the bottom is quite an understatement for this scenario.

*stops to scroll up and have another read-through*

De-anoning here to give you the praise you deserve. You had me laughing out loud in the start (getting starry eyed at the references to our earlier conversations, and also getting totally blind for what I was in for), wrinkling my eyebrows in the middle (what the hell is wrong with Basil??? discombobulate seems a fitting word for my emotions there), and grinning like a fool with Ratigan in the end.

*third read-through finished*

I do know from some other fandoms you write for, that you have a firm grip on the dark side. This was certainly a very dark ride at times, but it agrees beautifully with Basil's close relative: Holmes', canon, who most certainly lets his mind's goals outweigh his respect for the body. Aaand beautifully turn the tables on his opponents by it while simultaneously giving himself an ultimate high. Chinese firecrackers indeed.

Wonderful, wonderful work, I'm more than satisfied by this! :))) *takes a deep bow before scurrying away to save and store. "myy preecioussss"*

GAHHHHH. *BLUSH BLUSH* I am SO FLATTERED that you gave this story so much time and attention!! I am also extremely amazed that you've somehow managed to mention just about everything I was trying to achieve with this piece. Since the story is written in third-person restricted POV (from Ratigan's angle), I wasn't sure if Basil's unusual behavior would ultimately make sense. You've totally hit the nail on the head!! I draw a lot of my Basil from Holmes, especially what you said about the goals of the mind outweighing his respect for the body. Really, I'm just so super thrilled that you see what I see. :DDD

And the title, right? Gotta dig the title. Thanks, Sherlock Holmes soundtrack!! XDDD

I am so pleased that you're pleased. This fic wouldn't have gelled together without such a dynamite prompt, so you're as much to thank as I am. Thank you!! <333

I couldn't not give it my full attention, compulsively checking kink_meme and flist for days, and then being rewarded with such a brilliant, brilliant concoction. I swear I blew a few firecrackers myself.

I love well balanced darkfics. Writing them is a very difficult task, with risks of ugly falls to each side of a very narrow ledge. You manage this seemingly effortlessly.

Huzzah for firecrackers! That's the best possible reaction I could have hoped for. <333
