*wibble* ~O_O~

My gods, THIS. I'm halfway ready to cry, just from Jay's speech about heartbreak, b/c YES, THAT.

*applauds wildly*

*pets* Don't cry Saavs! *cuddles and loves*

This title! b! Did Asami and Akihito inspire you?

[aravistarkheena]

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah?

*Huggles Tim and Jason* Oh this was so sad and sweet and just gah! Poor Tim all hurty and Jason knowing exactly what that's like and then even making an effort to make it better. *happy sigh* Wonderful story!

I'm glad that you liked it. Jay's a good guy deep down inside. I think he sees Timmy as this poor lost kitten sometimes. Like, Tim just needs to be petted and given treats sometimes.

Oh wow was this ever so perfect! Jason was just spot on, and heartbreaking in his self-awareness. I adore how you wrote him here, how he is still gruff and bitter, yet willing to break through his tough exterior to reach out to Tim. And Tim, you wrote his pain so well (surprise, surprise). From the little signs such as the tension in his body and his clutch of the camera, each action showed the weariness and sadness coursing through him.

This was such a wonderful exploration of these two characters and their similarities. I just loved it. Well done!

THANKS! I'm actually kinda proud of how this turned out. I got the mood and atmosphere JUST how I wanted it. I feel like the dialog could have been a touch tighter, but I'm pleased, over all. Don't tell anyone, but this will probably be the first part of a 3 part series. I really want to finish up my dcu_freeforall table. And play with some new characters for a while. I feel like I've been writing Roy and Kon FOREVER!

Glad you liked the story!

That was gorgeous, darling. Big smile on my face thanks to you and your Jason!muse. XD And these lines:

“Better watch, kid,” Jason warned with a smile. “Unlike the Boss, I break the things I confiscate.”

“You'd have to confiscate it first,” the kid pointed out slyly. “That took Bruce years the first time.”

That made me giggle. <3 Thanks for this. <3<3<3 *smooches*

[aravistarkheena]

*kiss* Glad it made you happy. That's all that matters. <3
