Thank you so much for your lovely comment! I find Nick's voice a lot easier to write than Harry's so I'm relieved that Harry worked for you too. Ahhhh, it's always so weird when people thank me for fic when I'm like "NO, THANK YOU FOR BOTHERING TO READ!!" :)

Proper comment later when I'm not *cough* working but I thought you'd want to know I think there's an unclosed italics tag around here:

Xoxo.

Nick runs a hand through

PS. feel free to delete this comment if you want and LOLS, SUCH LOSERS, those Grimmy emails are the highlight of my day and if he hasn't also bawled his eyes out to Lucy Rose, I will eat my shoes ♥.

Meep, thank you for catching that! The best beta: still beta-Ing even after the job is done. I just saw an extra < up there as well but I can't fix it yet because I too am not technically supposed to be on livejournal right now. We are wonderful influences on each other, I'm sure. More loser emails coming your way tonight when I get home. <3

This was great! My favorite bit was the freakout about Gladys at Pret. Because yeah, socially awkward penguin, I feel you Grimmy. This was lovely!

Thank you! That's one of my favourite bits too. Oh, Grimmy, we are you and you are us.

Oh, Nick, you sweet little thing. I love how Harry's the one taking care of him a bit here. Lovely to see their dynamic done like this!

Thanks for reading! I get the impression that Nick's a bit of a mess most days, so I imagine Harry gets a lot of weird phone calls from him.

I the most ridiculous reaction to this fic; almost hugged my laptop. It really sounds like the Nick I've known and adored for so long, and the scene where he's ill after saying how he feels had me laughing out loud because I did that too once. (And then I went home and listened to Grimmy until I felt better. Umm.) Other favourite bits: Louis teasing Nick so that Nick's not hyperventilating on hold, Harry's Nick Grimshaw diagnostic, and the way you described the lazy day in bed.

Actually: my favourite bit is the bit where there are words, I can just leave it at that. ♥

Oh my goodness, you are much too sweet! Hugging your laptop!! I feel like Nick's voice has infiltrated my brain because I've started talking to myself in his style with his mannerisms--it'd be almost worrying, if it weren't so entertaining. Thanks for saying you liked the "lazy day in bed" bit, as that was where I was most unsure of my writing. Thank you thank you thank you!
