That is just adorable! Sick!Ryan is so not bitchy for once. :p And this is probably my favourite of them all: "I'm sick and you're taking care of me. We're monogamous, mostly. You've met my parents and I've met yours. We're sharing a damn house. We're in pretty deep here, if you hadn't noticed." How domestic. :D

Thank you, I'm so pleased you liked it! I'm not great at angst, I must admit, so I'm glad it wasn't too fluffy.

I tried to send you an email to the address listed on your LJ, about your story, but it came back to me! If you could send me an email, at jlh - at - livejournal? I'll reply right back to you. Thanks!

Oh, quite adorable, and very realistic seeming =) Your Simon and Ryan are wonderful.

Wow, you managed to write Simon taking care of Ryan without it being totally fluffy, it was just adorable.

Loved it! :)

Fluffy Simon is so not Simon, so I'm pleased I avoided that as it was definitely a worry. Thank you so much!

I swear, you sell me on this couple so easily. I mean, I completely buy their whole complicated relationship with its history and the way it all works for the two of them. Especially with stuff like of course Simon doesn't get married but he wants Ryan to be wanting to get married enough to dream about it. But also the anxiety of worrying that things will have changed over the summer--oh, Ryan!

Plus I love sick!fic and this time my favorite line is Ryans's "We came out of the sides!" because first I didn't know what he meant because he sounds like a little boy trying to describe whatever the hell one would call that. And Simon keeps trying to slip in girlie jokes and he's just adamament that this was a very manly wedding.

Yay that you like their evolving story! I've built this universe and now I can't seem to write without referring to previous events. Ryan was sort of emo here, but Simon made up for it with his teasing.

You loving sick!fic makes your praise that much more exciting! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
