THIS IS SOOOOO CUTE!!! And Kinder Eggs, seriously??? I was addicted to them! Just the toys though, I always gave the chocolate away, as unfortunately I'm allergic to that particular kind (Damn you, allergies!!) :(

Coulson is adorable in his stoic civil servant way, spot on! I love Coulson, that's why I also gave him a role in my story :D

And I love Clint/Natasha in the background, Clint being oblivious of his tell is just too sweet. He really is all those things, excellent marksman, loyal partner, brilliant tactician; but close-up undercover work, not his forte ;)

When I went to Munich in 2005, I got SO addicted to Kinder Eggs. Like, it wasn't even funny. Those things are freakishly good and I may have a permanent frowny face on your behalf for being allergic to the chocolate. But you can't get them over here! One of my commenters on AO3 has pointed out they're illegal in the States, which is I guess why. I can get other Kinder chocolate (and sometimes do, but I prefer...Leibnitz cookies? I may be spelling that wrong), but no eggs, which makes me sad.

I really, really hope Vienna has Kinder Eggs.

Coulson is a lot of fun to write. I had no idea it was this fun to put a story in his perspective until I wrote this. crazy4orcas originally gave me the prompt as Clint finding chocolates for Natasha, but I twisted it for the actual story because I'm crazy that way. :)

You know, there's a strong possibility that Clint set Natasha up... ;)

I can totally understand getting addicted to them! I used to eat them too, until I started scratching myself bloody *frown to end all frowns*! Yeah, they are illegal because of the little tiny swallowable parts. In Germany they only put "Not for children under the age of 3" on it and that's that, but then we also don't need to be reminded that live animals are not to be put in the microwave ;) Oh, Leibnitz cookies, with the dark chocolate cover... Kill me now, I love those :D

And Vienna surely will have Kinder Eggs!

I loved writing Coulson as well, he's awesome when written with that deadpan dry humor! You should definitely write more of him :D

Ohhhh, that sly little devil ;) But that's exactly why I love him so much ;) Even just the possibility, because he is great at being unassuming, hiding in plain sight... Yep, I can see that ;)

My friends that are traveling with me might get a little perturbed when the first thing I do is head for the airport shop. "EIER!"

Well, at least they speak German.

I will definitely write more Coulson. He's the ice-skating coach in the AU I've got kicking around. However, I think I'm switching fandoms for February and finishing out a couple of my in-progress stories. That way, I can stop feeling guilty. :)

And I'll never tell, with Clint. Muhahah.

Muahahaha :D That they might ;) Just like my travel partner when we went to London last year and I saw the first "Next" store... But hey, they have lovely clothes!

And yes, that is a good thing, at least they might be able to glean what you're talking about ;)

Oh, that AU sounds awesome! I'd read that (says the self-confessed AU-hater of 4 months ago ;))! I'd also read more of your Nat and Clint as zoologists in Antarctica ;););) Penguins!!! But I can totally understand you wanting to finish out some other things first.

Hahahaha, you're just as bad as he is ;)

Hahhaa, it's my goal in life to get everybody on the good AU love train. Some AUs are admittedly quite terrible, but a well-written one with good characterization is topped by nothing, I'm positive. Hehe, I see you "subtly" suggesting more Cold AU for me to write. ;)

That is the highest compliment you could have given me! *flattered*

shenshen77 February 1 2013, 16:48:36 UTC

Haha, I believe I nudged you gently towards writing more Cold AU when you first posted it ;) But yes, I mean, Clint AND penguins, it can't get much better than that ;);) Also totally agree on the AU, if it's well written, it is the best thing ever! If not, well, then it's just like any other story that fails to deliver...

Well, glad you like it, because I mean it ;)
