Oh, this is lovely! I like the quiet domestic feeling to it. :)

izzybeth June 30 2007, 12:03:37 UTC

i so love them being domestic. thank you very much.

I have to agree with viciouscats, I adore the cosy domestic-ness of this. There are lots of great, well-observed little details like 'He set it upright, pointed at it to make sure it stayed put.' I really love that. ♥♥♥

I don't often read Ray/Ray, but it's lovely to see a relationship that isn't all hearts and flowers but about them both finding someone they can actually live with. I think maybe they're going to wake up in ten years and realise they've been in love all this time.

i love Ray/Ray because they're not all hearts and flowers. i like seeing a more realistic portrayal of a relationship in fic, and Ray/Ray is the perfect pairing to show that. i'm glad you enjoyed! :)

This feels so sweet and so real. I especially love the detail of Ray pointing at the jar of salsa to make sure it stays put. And "mega-familia" is a hilarious word.

made up words are the best words. :D thank you kindly.

EEE, yay! I LOVE IT. Man, my domestic kink knows no bounds with these guys. YAY for you! :)

izzybeth June 30 2007, 22:12:10 UTC

and YAY FOR YOU as well! thank you so much!

Yay for Ray/Ray that does dissolve into heartbreak and hopelessness and hatesex. (Although what kind of weirdo would write Ray/Ray like that? ;-) I love their comfy domesticity, and that they love one another but they'll probably never need to say the words. Everyone has already pointed out the great details and perfect Ray-esque lines, so I'll just add my voice to the chorus and say that this story rules, and so do you.

::grinning all huge and stupid:: eee, thank you! i'm so glad you liked it!

nos4a2no9 June 30 2007, 22:38:29 UTC

I'm sorry, I meant to say, "Yay for Ray/Ray that does not dissolve into heartbreak and hopelessness." You must think I am very odd indeed :-)

izzybeth June 30 2007, 23:04:38 UTC

i kinda got that. :D
