Ugh, the way you dealt with the ISSUES and their ~FEELINGS~. I am feeling all the feelings for Nate and Eliot right now.

I normally hate the fuck out of flashbacks, but the way you balanced each and everyone with a piece of the story in the present worked really well - I rather like your flashbacks, ssshhh do not tell anyone.

I want to play chess with both of them now, ahhhhhh.

Awesome work. Why you were nervous about this I do not know at all. I feel sure this is going to be a fandom classic.

Wow, you read this really quickly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, hon - you saying all this nice stuff really means a lot!

I was so nervous about writing the flashbacks! Originally, they weren't meant to be there at all but they just sort of developed and they felt right for this story :D

Awww, thank you! *smishes*

Awww, thank you so much for the lovely comment! I'm really glad that you enjoyed the fic and thought they were spot on!

Ah, it wasn't your eyes - I did that in the original draft and thought I'd caught all the Lemmings but obviously not - I've changed them now. Thanks for pointing it out to me!

This was wonderful to read on a quiet Sunday morning. I think you nailed every ones "voice" perfectly. Nate and Eliot were so in character and you kept them true to themselves. I appreciate that you didn't get all "touchy feelly" when dealing with their developing relationship. I hope you decide to write more long Leverage fiction since you do it so well. Thank you.

Yay! Aw, this was great! Great voices for everyone, great use of flashbacks. I like how you made them actually deal with each other rather than just stumbling into bed. Great resolution after a perfect amount of awkwardness from both of them. :D *Loves this*

Nate&Eliot is my favorite ship and I always felt they didn't really resolve the tension between Nate and Eliot from the first episodes of S4. So when I read the summary, I was thinking you must have invaded my head...this is exactly what I wished for someone to write.

This is amazing, I'm bookmarking the hell out of it. I love how you portrait their issues and feelings, I think you nailed them spot on. I loved the flashbacks, because you made them a piece of the whole story and they never stopped the flow of it.

I'm a slasher at heart, but I also liked how gentle you let them ease into the start of their relationship, not just letting them jump into bed. With their history it wouldn't have made sense in my eyes.

Great work!!!

Hey! I want to thank you so much for this lovely review - it really made me smile to get it :) I started writing this fic pretty much because of the unresolved tension so I'm glad it suited you, too.

I'm really glad you liked the way the flashbacks worked and the way their relationship developed. Thank you!
