Ohhh, ohhh my God. They're reciting *poetry* to each other. I am so glad I decided to come back on today.

I just realised why I loved Euphoria so much after reading this. They've changed. Their relationship has developed into something new. After Love Hurts I was convinced that both of them needed to change drastically before they could get together. And now something has definitely shifted. You captured it well.

So going in my memories.

*laughs* Reading can be sexy too.

Absolutely. I absolutely agree. Their chemistry has taken another dynamic, another dive into something. Euphoria is not only a testament to that, but to their understanding of each other.

I'm so happy you enjoyed it.

Oh my goodness, that was absolutely lovely.

*smiles* Thank you. I'm pleased that you enjoyed it.

Holy sweet Mary mother of Jesus of all things in heaven dear Lord have mercy on my sould that was good! *composes self, takes deep breath* This fic was so unbelievably fabulous that I am, alas, at a loss of eloquence to enumerate its brilliance properly.

You simply amaze me. You're a wordsmith extraordinaire, plying prose in ways I've not seen from other authors on this board such that it is art, that it truly transcends House and Cameron. I'm in awe. And, being a literature freak myself, and being an insane fan of poetry and Ernest Hemingway, I must fangirl you.

I don't even want to attempt to recite my favorite lines, because the piece, for me, was a whole. Nothing stood out....the sex, the poetry, their conversation, the fluidity of their entwined movements, everything coalesced together in one beautiful motion. And you managed, so deftly, My God!, to translate the complex gorgeousness of their relationship to the beauty of poetry to the beauty of a physical and mental and emotional connection. I got it. They read to

The complexity of their relationship is something that I'm completely fascinated by, the depth and the color of it all. Art and literature seem to just be part of the spectrum of things that can highlight this.

I think the thing that makes me the happiest is that you enjoyed it and you enjoy reading what I write. I'm just completely flattered by your comment *grins* that I don't know what else to say.

So thank you, thank you, and thank you again.

Christ I just re-read this tonight (Iconology, remember that fic?). Memories. Oh, yes. Definitely Memories. In case I didn't completely tell you the first time around how much I adored this fic, I think I may have loved it even more the second time around...Top 5 no question. I'm reorganizing my memories tonight, yay! So, yeah, you pretty much rule my world.

This was absolutely perfection. You took a premise that when glanced over may not be seen as being in character, and made it completely epitomize House and Cameron's relationship. I love the end when House is reciting poetry to her... and wrapping the book in newspaper, *snorts*. So very House

*laughs* I don't mind at all. I prefer it actually because it's one of those things that you think you catch everything, but don't.

Thank you, thank you. *smiles* Pleased that you enjoyed it.

I've not read any of those authors, but I think I'm going to have to.

You've managed to demonstrate how much of what is erotic comes from the mind. Beautifully, wittily done. Memming it.

Thank you for this. :-)

[fated_addiction]

*smiles* You're quite welcome. I'm very pleased that you enjoyed it.
