Oh man, visitors came over JUST as I got to the last night with the card game and everything and I've been dying to finish this story all afternoon! And that is because it was just wonderful. :D I've been dying for more long, meaty relationship fic and *wriggles* this totally hit the spot. For one thing, I've always had a big soft spot for Hot Dog, and so the idea of the pairing was v. exciting, and then you developed his character and relationship with Felix so well. I -- okay Hoshi seems like a nice guy and obviously he cares about Felix which is good, but -- in my secret heart of hearts, I'd rather have this

you found it!!!! i've been meaning to rec this to you for several days only i couldn't remember minor details like the title or author (i'm sorry, trovia!), just "that really great gaeta/hot dog fic." well. GOOD WORK. :D

[trovia]

Hee! I'm so proud that you still remember the fic, thank you! :D (also, where the hell did my answer to your comment go? I remember writing that reply)

...how strange! Searching gmail pulls up the comment notification I got for it, so it was definitely here once upon a time...

Also, thanks for the prompt ficlet link below -- I didn't realize they existed either, and after talking BSG over with myscheherazade for the last few days I'm in just the right frame of mind to read them. :)

You're welcome. Let me know how you like them if you're in the mood. :) (oh! There's also an awesome remix of HTLAL here, written by the fabulous lls-mutant, a straight POV switch that tells the fic from Hot Dog's POV. It's very worthy of checking out, she's a brilliant writer and I can recommend all her fic)

Hee! What an awesome first email notification to get in 2013! (we're already done celebrating here) Thank you so much! I'm delighted that you liked the fic so much. It's still very dear to my heart after all those years, and I'm very proud to get all the comments. (there are some prompt ficlets set in this 'verse, if you're interested enough to follow the tag. Some of them including the sex. ;)) Four years have past since that, wow. I've been in a relationship with the beta of this fic ever since. :D Happy new year!
