And Kalinda offering to fetch the secretary for a cuddle and this line in particular: “I’m an excellent lesbian, Mr Lloyd.": Instant Kalinda classics. Kudos for that.
Wonderful first fic! Welcome to the fandom. I hope you're inspired to write more!

Thanks for the lovely welcome! Hope you are considering writing more too, your epic fic was truly amazing.
