Wow, Piper is such a good person. I can't believe how compelling you made that (I mostly gravitate towards the villains, lol).

Hey, thanks! I'm pretty fond of him too. :) He does also spend a lot of time being a jerk in this one (and expressing trauma, because boy, are they both loaded with that), but there's an extremely decent person in there. It's a shame he's having so much trouble with that lately.

I kept wishing that Tricks knew exactly how much Piper had to put up with and how much he, Trickster, owes him. Not that Trickster would ever admit it, so maybe he does know.

He does know the important stuff--and it's only around part 4 that things started getting fuzzy, so he remembers the details from earlier--he knows that Piper stayed with him, took care of him as best he could, and risked his own life to get Trickster the medicine he needed. None of that is anything Trickster's going to forget in a hurry, although he'd definitely prefer to remember it without actually, you know, talking about it. *g*

Damn it, I know it's not realistic for it to end with them falling into each other's arms, but I still want that!

*laughs* They make an intriguing couple, don't they? But not here, I'm afraid--we're tentatively working on a sequel, but that's gen too. Other people in the community are writing slash, though, and a while back Blinky wrote a long Piper/Trickster AU, The Piper and the Gunsmith (pretty dark, be warned). You could give those a try.

Thanks for the feedback!

Oh, yeah, I've given that one a try. It was very nice. And I know that other people are working the relationship out that way (with slash). But, indeed, "friends" can be a very strong ending too, when there's so much to get through to get there.
