Oh this is gorgeous! Very lyrical but in a cool, straightforward way that really fits Booth/Brennan.

You've really captured them in a short number of words, which is no easy feat.

I really loved this bit: Clavicle is - oh - a scraping kiss along her collar-bone, nearly clean-shaven chin against fragile skin, coming to rest in the hollow in her throat just above the manubrium, which gets a kiss in passing as well. Something about it just grabs me.

Awesome job! :D

Thank you! I was really hoping that I'd managed to capture them, so I'm glad you think I did. :D

Hmm. That wasn't one of my favorite lines. I love when people pick out lines that I hadn't really thought that much about, because it means I look at the whole thing differently. :D

Thanks so much!

This is beautiful. Really, truly poetic and lovely and just... *sigh* The way you incorporated the names of the bones was so perfect, so romantic, even, because it's so purely her, and then of course the ending line killed me. Gah, you are exacerbating my Bones-missing problem!

Really, though, who'd have thought there could be so much lovely magic in the repetition of the word "mandible"? There was something so graceful about how you wrote this.

Oh, thank you! I kept wanting to write it so that he spoke the names of the bones, but that never worked out. I like this way much better. :D

And anything that makes you want to watch Bones is good in my book. :P

I'm so glad you liked it!

Oh, thank you! I was kind of going for a poetic feel, as long as it still sounded like Booth. I'm glad you like it. :D

(I love them SO MUCH. It's fun.)

Haha, awesome! I love this icon. The cropping is perfect. :D

Thank you! That line was one of the most important for me in figuring out how to write this. I'm so glad you liked it! :D
