It is official, I am this mysterious nameless girl...
I wish *sigh*

Awesome, it was sooo cute, and everything just flowed really well. I loved Colby's progression from paranoia to concern and then to...well, we all know what goes on behind (sometimes not) closed doors.

[sororcula]

Haha. I'm so glad you liked it! Thanks. :-)

Excellent! Maybe that's my problem, I'm not regular enough about my grocery shopping, if I was I'd have Colby.

[sororcula]

Hee! Routine is very important. *nods*

[shanachie13]

Maybe my problem is I never do the grocery shopping or I go with my momo when I do... aw too cute and too Colby. Nice job!

[sororcula]

LOL! Yes, that could be a hindrance... ;-) Thanks!

[shanachie13]

Yes. Although my momo is less of a hindrance than my mom. My momo would be libel to walk up to him and say "My daughter thinks your cute. Would you like me to introduce you two?" While I'm trying to run in embarrassment. (She's done something similar so I speak from experience.)

[sororcula]

Oh, man, I am blushing on your BEHALF right now. Meep!

[emmademarais]

Oh, hon! This is adorable!

I don't know what you were worried about. This is sweet and lovely and very nicely written. It flows well and has a great ending. Plus hello naked Colby visual! What a great bonus!

I especially like the premise. People do shop out of habit yet I can see Colby being overly suspicious given his background. (It amuses me that it's turned around against him.) But he does need a girl who doesn't have preconceived notions about him because of his spying. I like her. I think you should bring the two of them back. /nod nod/

One final thing: 'fess up. You named her in your head, right? I can't believe you could write this whole fic and not even consider a name for her. I mean, I know you love your pronouns, but you had to have at least thought about her name, right?

[sororcula]

(Your new icon confused me for a second! :-P)

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it. And haha, don't be surprised if you see little sequels to this involving babies and knitted sweaters and pie.

I swear she doesn't have a name. In the middle of writing it I considered for about 5 seconds what her name would be if she did have one, but I don't even remember now what my thoughts were. I'm afraid I might have to give her one if I do write those sequels though. Haha.

[emmademarais]

Barack Obama FTW! (I have to do my part, you know?)

She needs a name even if you NEVER put it in the fic.

Just tell me when you get it because I've already given her two names in my head and I'm coming up with more. Heh.

Oh, and btw?

PIE!

/is very much in favor of pie and babies/

[sororcula]

Pshaw, she doesn't need a name. But I'll let you know if I think of one. ;-)

This whole conversation is reminding me that I haven't baked for awhile! Man. (I did dream about being pregnant last night, though, so that kind of covers the baby thing, right? LOL.)

[shanachie13]

Seconds the pie and babies... Colby would be the type to fall for a girl who bakes... its that down home country thing... trust me (country girl).

[sororcula]

Even as a city girl, I wholeheartedly agree! :-D

[shanachie13]

LOL yeah, but its a country thing... you bake for the guy. Trust me...I can't think of a guy I dated that I didn't bake for...I think it goes back to the fairs and all. And Colby, deep down, is still a country boy, I believe.
