Honey, I'm Home (Part 1)

This one is dedicated to rabidsamfan, who started this story cycle off by asking curiously, "What did Hartley buy at the market?" :)

(PS to rsf -- there is a secret hidden amongst the goods, if you think about it!)

Best. Grocery List Fic. EVER!!! Ye gods, the crickets! *cackles* And all James' junk food! <3!! They're both so hopelessly sweet I think I may get cavities. XD

Thank you. You're very kind. And THEY are a coupla Mushpuppies. There's just no denying it. Rogues get WAAAY stupid when they're in love. :)

I had some more coffee and thought about this, and I must say too that...

1) They've been terrorized and traumatized beyond anything they've ever had to deal with before... and the only saving grace is that they BOTH went through it TOGETHER, which is how they're gonna get through their recovery.

2) They are SO CLOSE to one another by now that they really don't have a lot of boundaries. Add to that their falling (plummeting?) in love. Now add to that the stone fact that neither one has been able to really have someone who UNDERSTANDS him so deeply and so well and ---- it's a HUGE relief! To be able to open up and share and care and be loved and ----- yeah. Mushpuppies.

guess who's all caught up? (yay me!)

loved james at the target :) seriously, him muttering song lyrics under his breath and playing the part of the crazy customer ever so well (i've been the sweet little girl behind the counter in too many retail jobs now and i can totally sympathize with the poor clerk trying to be polite when he's freaked out-well done!). and piper's such the little nester, huh? lol that's his cancer showing (the astrological sign, not the disease). too cute for words.

and i loved the line about james' heart taking up crochet and turning itself into a cozy. d'aaaaaaaaaww!!

Yay, you! Thanks for taking the time and making the effort -- glad it was worth it! :)

Yeaaah... Gio is always gonna work whatever he's got. Things are..... different, now..... but he's STILL the World's Greatest Con Artist!

And Hart is just SO GLAD AND RELIEVED TO HAVE SOMEBODY TO LOVE!!!!! (cue Freddie Mercury) AND WHO LOVES HIM!!!!!!!! So, yeah, he went a li'l berserk buying goodies for his good man. ;D (I just find Hart so SWEET, beneath all the angst and fierceness!)
