Oo, this is a good meme. Particularly for a person who has a cold and is confined to her apartment, looking and sounding like some particularly revolting mucus monster out of a highly-forgettable X-Files episode.

Okay, just because I made my way through all your Jeeves/Wooster fic last night and am still incoherently gleeful about how AWESOME it all is...

Jeeves' and Bertie's first kiss? Pretty please?

[flambeau]

Aw and hee and yay and thank you!

And Jeeves and Bertie, hmm. Jeeves would never be so forward as to press his attentions; Bertie might well be, if the idea occurred to him, but ideas occurring to him is a semi-annual affair, if that, and he could have gone for a long time believing that the enjoyment he got out of watching Jeeves perform his duties, and watching Jeeves just be Jeeves, was as innocently uncomplicated as the enjoyment he got out of playing a good round of golf, or mixing the perfect drink.

I really need to finally get around to reading/watching these, don't I?

[flambeau]

Yes. :) The tv series is charming in so many ways, but the books are my first love.

"I didn't know," I said. "Dash it, I didn't know."

You have the most best wonderful way of speaking the world in the slimmest words.

*beams* Thank you. I like to think that Bertie would get a clue one day.
