Oh, this was so adorable! I like the feeling that Boyd is different from other Handlers, because I think he is - I don't care if the trust is imprinted, those two have chemistry that is unique! :P

Thank you! I'm glad you thought so.

Can I just say - yay! And yay again! :-)

[quirkysmuse]

Thanks, darlin! *squishes*

[apckrfan]

You're welcome. As if you didn't know I'd be all over this one!

[quirkysmuse]

Hee! I take it you must like this pairing. I don't think I've talked to you about the Dollhouse fandom yet. :3

Oh very nice! I like this! Boyd's an honorable man so he'd take this one sided (of a sort) friendship on because it's the right thing to do. I do see him having an affection for Echo that wouldn't make logical sense to people like Boyd who see her as a human etch-a-sketch or to Laurence who sees her as a thing more than a person, but Boyd's all about the humanity and he'll hold onto whatever humanity is in Echo because he's the only one who can.

Thank you so much for writing this for the challenge! It's really quite wonderful.

So nice :) A very gentle piece, just like how Boyd treats Echo :)

[quirkysmuse]

Thank you! I'm glad you picked up on Boyd's gentleness. I know he's really strong, but I think he realizes how fragile Echo can be.

Aww. Poor Boyd. Poor Echo.

This was lovely and sad. Thanks for posting!

[quirkysmuse]

Sure! Thank you for the comment. :D
