It's been so long since I've read anything Nick/Greg... how refreshing! Great little fic. (:

And Neil Patrick Harris is amazing. I may or may not have watched Doogie religiously back in the day, haha.

Thanks!

I love Neil. I don't even watch How I Met Your Mother because I work Monday nights, but I am even considering watching the Emmys on Sunday and I really hate awards shows. He really is that awesome. (I was devoted to Doogie. Completely and utterly. Though I totally had a thing for Vinnie.)

[playthefool]

OMG I had a thing for Vinnie too, hahaha. When I saw him in... what was it, Reservoir Dogs? ... I was like THAT'S VINNIE and my boyfriend was totally looking at me like I was a wee bit crazy.

[carolinecrane]

Revolutionary Road, maybe? I don't think he was in Reservoir Dogs. I will probably always love him best in Newsies, though. Oh, Racetrack. You were the cutest singing Newsie of all.

OMG, RE: The Office, Hell yes!

Now if only someone would write it. I don't think I could do Andy justice. Damn that Ed Helms for being so awesome.

I really liked the Nick/Greg story there--it's nice to see people grow old together; even if it's just in a story.

And Neil Patrick Harris is amazing. He makes How I Met Your Mother an excellent sitcom when otherwise it would just be good.

I don't watch the Office or even like it really, but what you just described sounds like my kind of wacky hijinks story. I'd read it.

[carolinecrane]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed.

RE: The Office, I keep waiting for someone to write it. No luck yet, but I have high hopes.

[jujuberry136]

This was beautiful. I loved Nick's thoughts on Greg's changing appearance since they've been together, their gentle teasing about expensive coffee, and the little details you slip in there (slipper!).

And Neil Patrick Harris= AWESOME. Tru fact. That article was so cool :D

[carolinecrane]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed :) (Nick would totally wear slippers in the winter. So practical, that one.)

"Couldn't really sleep with you out here thinking so loud."

Just... okay. Just perfect. Seriously. The entire ficlet was absolutely adorable and sweet and the fact that he was thinking about the future. And sweet domestic coffee spoiling Nick and Greg.

"It was all part of my plan. I got you hooked on my coffee so you couldn't live without me."

Hands down my favorite part... but then again. I couldn't pick just one bit out. My second favorite part? The rest of it. I think the reason I can't write Nick/Greg anymore is I love the idea of what you have them in. (This isn't a bad thing at all, I prefer your future for them.) You have their voices so well and they are just so real and I can't think of a better way for them to live. &hearts

I love you and I love it. ♥

[carolinecrane]

Oh, my boys. You know I love them, so I'm happy to share with other people who see them the way I do. Thanks!
