I just got home from an 11 hour drive, 6 of those hours being in the pouring down rain... so imagine my absolute and PURE delight when I opened my LJ and found this. There is so much to squee over here.

First, I love Ian/Nikki. I have from the very first "Who the hell are you?" in 5.01 High Exposure. Second, I love that you posted to ian_nikki!! THANK YOU!!!! I hope that the numb3rs_het challenge will bring about some more Ian/Nikki fic but admittedly, some people still aren't keen on that pairing (probably because it's canon. haha.)

Third, this was delightful. So casual and in character and yet so poignant and delicious at the same time. You really captured their banter and the easy way they have with each other. Fantastic.

There was the barest exhalation behind her, a deliberate warning. Then Ian was beside her. His tie was undone as were the top buttons of his shirt. His jacket was missing and there was something about the way he walked that told Nikki he was wearing the ankle holster that chaffed. He’d gotten a glass of champagne too. Not his style, but he drank it like a pro.

This was my personal favorite passage. It was almost like poetry. LOVE IT! GREAT JOB! Please to not stop writing these two, ok? *puppy eyes

Wow, what a wonderful comment to recieve :) Thanks so much for your overwhelmingly kind words. It really made me morning and made me smile. Ian/Nikki was a challenge to write but they're actually my favourite Numb3rs pairing. Clearly I'm one of the few ;)

I'm really glad you enjoyed this fic so much. Thanks again.
