God that's gorgeous! I love every single moment but especially the image of them as a family. It's so real and I seriously can see it happening on the show. I love love love that you included Emily. ♥

Seriously beautiful darling!

Oh, thank you!! I'm thrilled that you loved this so much. This one practically wrote itself. I love that you loved Emily being in it - I couldn't imagine writing it without her as she's so important to the both of them.

Thank you so much ♥

Oh definitely, Emily is so central to their relationship! But I think a lot of fic writers tend to forget about other characters when they write and make it all about the ship. But with Cal/Gillian, any kind of future/established relationship would absolutely involve Emily so I love that you included her.

I'M GRINNING LIKE AN IDIOT AND I CAN'T STOP.

The first one, i am so in love with how close you portrayed them to be after just a month of knowing each other. I've always imagined it to be like that for them. You know sometimes, you meet that one person and you just connect instantly and a bond is formed. It was like that for my best friend and i and it's something i always figured would be for Cal and Gillian so i'm so happy you showed that.

The second one is insanely realistic too. I've always been intrigued with that time frame in their relationship ever since Gillian mentioned it in "Better Half". The way she talked made me feel like she had been there every step of the way through his "recovery", so i love this.

It was unlike her to show how unsure she was. -- YES. Always.

THEIR HUG. MY HEART. Heh, i read that one and instantly thought about the fact that s3 is supposed to premiere with a bank robbery episode. Icing on the cake? ;)

And okay seriously, the last one. The last one. So gorgeous and everything i could ever wish ( ... )

I'M GRINNING KNOWING THAT YOU ARE GRINNING (well not right now, I imagine you're asleep, but you know what I mean ( ... )
