First of all, thank you for writing this for me. It was a really sweet thing of you to do

[cynthia_arrow]

Yay! I'm glad you liked it. I know you've read a lot of jealousy fics before, so I wanted to try to get away from the tupical Jack's flirting and Sawyer's pissed off scenario. I'm happy to hear this worked.

Honestly, it was a pleasure to write. My J/S muse has been rather awol, but apparently it just wanted an excuse to come out to play!

Hee, I'll be a book snob like Sawyer - that part made me laugh so much. This is wonderful, I like the easy. playful flow of this - like the jealousy isn't ever serious. And the sex is hot, kind of expected and not, if that makes any sense. (The idea of quick blowjobs on the road is also very hot...um, I'm thinking you should do a little something with that.)

Anyway, this was a lovely read, thanks. :)

Ooo, forgot to mention that the title and the paragraph about space was just so great. I loved that bit especially.

[cynthia_arrow]

I've never read The DaVinci Code, probably because I'm a little suspicious of anything that sells that well. (Then again, I said the same about Harry Potter before I started reading it, and that turned out well. :) )

Perhaps I could be persuaded to write rest stop porn. If I gotta...

You know, I didn't know what to call this thing, but then that word just jumped out at me from that paragraph, and it seemed to make sense. Thanks for letting me know it worked.

I'm so glad you liked this. Thanks for reading it, dear!

I love this! So fantastic. I love how the jealousy between them is kind of playful, kind of real, and how Sawyer is making all this effort to get Jack riled up and then he ends up riled himself when Jack wasn't even trying to play that game. It's great that Jack is so confident in their relationship that he saw what Sawyer was doing and he didn't feel threatened by it. I also love all the little details, like Sawyer's book snobbery and how Sawyer doesn't feel middle-aged and doesn't look at Jack as middle-aged, but he sees the woman talking to Jack as being such. It's funny because I think about that sometimes as Jack and Sawyer are both gaga over Kate in canon and how she is really so much younger than the both of them! I really notice that a lot in scenes where Kate and Juliet are together because Kate seems like such a young, inexperienced and unsure girl in comparison

[cynthia_arrow]

I know exactly what you mean about Juliet vs. Kate. I think that's honestly why I like(d) her with Jack--the idea that she's mature enough for him. Of course, she's also apparently homicidal...

Amanda is lucky that you wrote it for her! It's absolutely perfect for her, she loves her Jealous!Sawyer somethin' awful! Oh, I knew exactly what I was doing. She didn't even have to give me prompts. Her jealous!Sawyer kink is pretty well known, I think.

Thanks so much for reading this. It's good to know my J/S isn't broken. :)

How is it that it's so hard to sell me on the Jack/Sawyer pairing, and that you manage to do it so easily? This struck me as very true to character (Sawyer's, um, maturity issues; Jack's oddly placed senses of humour). I can definitely see them both adjusting/not adjusting to post-island life like this. You're making such wonderful use of the road-trip conceit, too...

Oh, and the sex parts? Are really, really sexy. I will leave it at that for the sake of propriety. (Too late, say you?)

And for someone who thought she couldn't agree with Sawyer about the colour of an orange: I also really, really, really hated The Da Vinci Code. A lot. Go Sawyer! (Had to get that off my chest.)

[cynthia_arrow]

You know, I tend to forget there are people out there who aren't Jack/Sawyer shippers because most of my flist is, LOL. (J/S used to be my OTP, so I've written them more than any other pair...ever.) Given that you don't like the pairing much, I appreciate you reading this a lot.

I'm glad you liked it. :) Thanks for the feedback!

Something about them all post-rescuey and happy with petty things to fight about makes me happy.

♥ you!

[cynthia_arrow]

Glad I could make you smile. Thanks! *squishes*
