Over the course of the few months that they had known each other, Esca had come to think of Marcus as the equivalent of an over-sized puppy. Maybe that was putting things a little too simply, but it was hard not to draw the parallels. His dopey grin, his lopsided gait, the way he secretly liked to have his belly scratched, it was all too much.

This is soooo adorable!

And this,
made Esca feel like maybe, just maybe his life could be good again.

made me tear up a little a lot. ♥

I hope you write more in this fandom!

Oh my, O///O You flatterer, you.

I'm unbelievably happy that you enjoyed it so!

My headcanon for Esca in this story still has him losing his family, and Marcus being the first person he's really taken to since then, because he's just so irresistibly sunny, y'know? And I just wanted to keep that little bit of edge to him for that reason. :P

I definitely will have to get right on it! You have all been so kind that I'm eager to give right back. :)

I definitely have a weakness for the tragic backstory idea.. especially when Marcus is the one bringing happiness back into Esca's life (or vice versa). <3

Also, I SEE YOU THERE KIRK ICON. I SEE YOU. :D

[davynn]

Mwahahahaha! I'll see your Kirk and raise you another! >:D

I just can't help but see Marcus as a caretaker in any verse and I'm always a big sucker for h/c fics. :P Esca losing his family and Marcus having his leg injury just seem like such an integral part of who they are that I can never leave it out- no matter the situation I put them in.

That icon is awesome!! Did you make it? Can I steal borrow it? :D

[davynn]

I'm glad you like it!!! Feel free and have fun with it any way you wish. ^^
