Thank you so much for reading! Glad you enjoyed. I changed the end a bit when I changed the fic title, but otherwise it's the same. Just so you know. =)
This is really, really good, Ames. I mean really good. Not that I don't love everything you write, but you just ... you capture something really special here. Just lovely.
Who took one of his hands and held it, brushing his thumb over the knuckles. They sat like that for a while, and it was odd, but nice. For two teenage boys, it was about the best he figured they could do in terms of emotional support, and Xander was suitably impressed. I love this bit, because teenage boys really can be so closed off with each other like this. But then you turn it with the kiss to the hand and it's perfect. And the timidness of both of them.
"Oh thank god, fuck" - Brilliant. That little bit of dialogue says so much -- it tells us about Larry's motivations, it tells us the hesitancy between them, it tells Xander everything he needs to know (for the moment anyway). And that way he mutters it against Xander's mouth, so hot and I can just feel the way the pace of things shifts dramatically all coming out of this line. It's so much better than if
( ... )
Such very nice feedback, I don't really know what to say! I'm just glad the story came out okay, it was a hard pairing for me to write, and it's really great to know that the characters shone through the way I wanted them to.
The response was almost instantaneous. "Oh thank god, fuck" Larry mumbled against his mouth as he pulled Xander down on top of him. "Didn't think you'd go for it, didn't think..."
Maybe pod Larry was a Hellmouth aberration that would be gone by morning, but if this was his one shot at being with the big lug, he was going to take it, regardless of the consequences.
Yay! So glad that he (and you) went for it :). Thank you!

I loved this bit here:

and really, all the rest of it, too.
