Oh, YES. This is exactly what I needed after that movie. Not even the "Pete's ok" (which I'm not complaining about, believe you me) but just the aftermath, the pain and the grief. I love the way you included their sexual relationship in there, it didn't seem out of place at all, it seemed like something that could have fit right into the movie but was removed for time constraints or something. Great piece, doll, really fantastic.

I just noticed a couple little things, grammatically speaking. Everything else I thought was spot on. :)

Need a home port, don't I? You can have it but keep a room ready for me

Needs a period at the end, I think?

It's like you're punishing him for what my choices."

I think the "what" is misplaced in there.

I really need to go back and watch this movie now. ♥

I have this strong belief that unless I see the body going into the ground, there's a workaround.

I think the movie sort of blew off the emotional impact and that's one of the reasons that I didn't feel the emotion of Pete dying in the movie. There was no grief at all, not really. Just a quick little quip about learning when to back down because Pete died.

Sliding the sexual relationship in there is definitely something I love doing... I do it with the Departed all the time so I really loved doing it here, too. There's quite a bit of subtext between them with the way that they are always together and feel free to swing an arm over a shoulder or whatever.

EEEK! Thanks for pointing those out! I'll go correct right away. I'm notorious for forgetting punctuation at the end with coding.

I ♥ u 2 a billionty + 1.

God, this is brilliant. Your so right, they couldn't leave it there and you're also right about the tension between them that had to be sated on occasion in ways after a fight. *eek* Now you've got me going to have to go search through my unpacked DVD boxes to find it so I can watch it tonight. I'd comlpain but y'know Charlie and the thought of this fic should keep me goin *grin*

EEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Dude. Man. That movie is just about brilliant. I also firmly believe that unless I watch a coffin go into the ground, that there's a way to bring 'em back.

And yes - there was so much subtext between them with the way that they were in each other's pockets and bonding as they did. I like to think that there was a bit more bonding than we got to see :D.

Loved the story. I read about your strong belief tha unless you see the body go into the ground you can work around it and I have to say the same thing. If I really like a character or something and they die unless I see them go into the ground then Im going to make it seem like they never died. But I loved your story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
