This dorky grin on my face right now? All your fault. You and your fic have me absolutely delighted.

This is adorable, sexy and a wee bit pervy much like Alex and Tony themselves.

It's so endearing that Alex is insecure about her height and that Tony rushes to reassure even if he doesn't quite get it.

I freaking love this image:
There’s the smirk again, and the pointed edge of her tongue darting like a minnow between her teeth. With that, her toes, plus the dress he’s been working very hard all evening to avoid staring at, by now he’s almost entirely convinced he’s being seduced, or perhaps dreaming, albeit with impossible lucidity.

And I adore so many other things about this: Tony questioning the freakishly high heels AND admiring the fact that Alex can actually run in them, Tony making a penis joke which I image took Alex quite by surprise (I would have killed to see her face right then.), and, of course, Alex and her wandering feet. The minx.

From here on out, all WitB fics should have at least one penis joke. I shall not be satisfied if it isn't so.

Oooh, I'm glad you liked this little snippet! I've no idea where it came from; Tony's cheeky line just popped into my head yesterday out of the blue. I lol'd, which was embarrassing, but anyway...

I figure Alex must be at least a little bit insecure about her height; there's really no other explanation for just how high her heels are (and they're really high). Obviously they made her wear them to make it easier to get her into frame with Robson, but reality is boring, right? In terms of the actual character, there's no practical reason for a cop who spends a lot of time scurrying around to wear ridiculously high stiletto heels all the time.

I figure she's bust out a reallyhigh pair in pornographic red whilst on a date with Tony. And then take them off in order to do vaguely whorish things with her toes. Poor Tony (or, more accurately, lucky Tony.)

Hmm, penis jokes... I think the whole idea must have come from Robson making odd penis jokes on Extreme Fishing, and now I can't help but imagine Tony doing the same. I'll try to make sure I fit one in as often as I can in future fics!

Oh, I loved it. I don't blame you for laughing out loud. Cheeky Tony can do that to a person!

I totally buy Alex's insecurity about her height. She's got to have a few little weakness, being a superwoman in so many other areas and all. And I dig these pornographic heels for her date with tony not to mention the alarmingly slutty dress and the whorish things she does with her toes. Lord, she's a woman after my own heart (and yours, and Tony's and Paula's and...)

I'll try to make sure I fit one in as often as I can in future fics!
I now think it would be hilarious if you wrote a really serious and angsty fic and just threw a random penis joke in the middle. I'm sorry. I'm obviously 12.

You know what? Making a random penis joke in the middle of a horribly angsty moment would probably be quite in character for Tony. He's always very keen to distract her and pull her out of her angry/emo funks, and a dick joke would be just the trick! I'm going to have to give this idea some serious consideration.
