If you'll excuse me, I'm just going to head to Vegas myself and marry this story. Absolutely *gorgeous*, lady, with all the psycho twists, turns, and EEEEEEEEE POTENTIAL of the SA and GA. Disturbing, sweet, funny, hot, wrong -- perfect. *smooch*

[glossing]

Whee, thank you!

Somehow the disturbing kept poking through the cute and I decided it was, like, canonical or something.

*mwah* Thankyouthankyouthankyou!

EEEEE! This is so wonderful. Bruce and Selina and TED, and so very New-Frontier-like, and Ollie sounded *exactly* how Ollie should, in New-Frontier-verse, and Dick and Barry are so very very CUTE, both individually and in combination.

(Barry's little HEART in the snow, oh my god, that was WONDERFUL.)

And Selina's note is just the PERFECT ending. OH SELINA.

Yay, thank you! I *leaped* at the chance to write New Frontier fic, and then realized that the book's so wonderful as is that I couldn't think of anything new to say. So writing a love letter to it, and *them*, all of them, seemed like the way to go.

Oh my god, Gloss, I am dying of the cute. I recently blazed through New Frontier and loved it to pieces, and this so easily feels like an natural expansion of what was on the page, the youthfulness and vitality and innocence. They're all such babies.

"Of course you're not a baby." Bruce kisses Dick's forehead. "We both know better."
BWEEEEEE. <<333

I was afraid I might have overdone the cute, but I couldn't help myself, I really couldn't.

I'm so glad you enjoyed - thank you! *mwah*

Dick's voice is so adorable here, but not in a saccharine way. You called him a tomboy once, and that's the best description I've ever heard, so I'm going to mumble it back at you.

Barry drawing the heart in the snow made my heart pitter-patter, and I loved how his conversation was Dick was a heart-to-heart between two effusive boys.

Like caviar, and jet aircraft rather than railroads, and, it would seem, kissing girls *or* boys.

Oh, Dick. You little gem.

<-- few words, big smile

I really am just beaming Graysonishly at you right now. It's really delightful and reassuring to know that the tomboy-Dick in my head made it onto the page, pre-pubescent effusiveness and judgmentalism intact.

Thank you so much!

I had the unfair advantage of having read bits of this before.

He could only be more excited if it were Superman up there.
This was the first time my house resounded to the "AWWWW."

Barry's heart in the snow made me ever so joyous, as did Dick's advice and mild cluelessness.

"My girl --" oh, Barry. Oh, *Barry.*

"You work with the Bat-Man!"
My heart runneth over with dear.

Dick's exceedingly mild cat-related sulking makes me beam, as does Selina bringing his jacket back for him.

This pleases me so much my face hurts from grinning.

I'm not sure you reading early was unfair, since I needed some handholding to make sure I was on the right track.

Robin longed to meet Superman! In #5, he's turning cartwheels over the opportunity. And, yes, he is a little clueless - not quite the world's greatest detective, but he makes up for that in sheer effusive *energy*.

Barry is, like all Allens and Robins, a creature lodged firmly in my heart, never to be disturbed.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this - thank you!
