Oh, lovely. Just perfect. With the rain and the cuteness and the atmosphere and just...aww.

There’s a nearly silent hum, and then a hand on his back, accompanied by the press of a rough cheek and soft hair.

Man, did I love htat line. So much.

This made me so happy and was just totally what I needed to read and in exchange I will write you all the pining you want.

[lotus0kid]

XD Thanks kindly.

Yay pining! Aching, torturous, nigh unbearable UST ahoy!

[visiblemarket]

No, thank you :D

It is all I will write from now on!

[lotus0kid]

Whoa, well, hey now, let's be clear about this. Nigh unbearable UST only reaches its full potential when followed by the smoking hot resolution.

I love this! And in a serendipitous turn of events, it is pouring actual rain outside right now. It's pounding against the windows in my room. ;)

Anyway, this is gorgeous. This last line in particular:

After dark the rain tapers off into a cool, empty silence. Claude sniffs and frowns, pulling Peter closer.

Sweet and beautiful. The whole atmosphere is just perfect.

[lotus0kid]

Hee, wonderful!

Thanks very much! I think the atmosphere more than anything else is crucial to get right in fics like this, so I'm really glad this seems to work.

[indyhat]

This is beautifully atmospheric! Bonus points for use of a soundtrack :)

Claude thinks about a bench in Central Park, and how very soaked it must be at this moment.

Intrigued by the idea that Claude has a particular bench. Regular homing-pigeon, Claude ;P

Smashing.

[lotus0kid]

Thank you! It wouldn't have been right to not give my inspiration a shout-out at least.

Hee, well, I could imagine him figuring out which bench is the most suited for a night of invisible sleep, so, yeah.

Ah, very nice. This has a wistful quality to it (and is perfectly matched by RainyMood. That site is addictive).

When the hand slides up to his shoulder, he wraps his own around it and closes his eyes.

I loved that.

Excellent!

[lotus0kid]

Thanks very much! (So addictive.)

[starrdust411]

This was wonderful, especially with the rain sound effects (clever idea :D)

[lotus0kid]

Thank you! Heh, I figured since the site inspired me, it really belongs in the fic itself.
