I also like Draco's hair short...

[alaana_fair]

*g* I personally, love Draco with long hair. But that was the request and I chose to work it into the plot. In my mind, Draco's hair will always be long, flowing silk strands. *sigh*

I love this! You've chosen a great, simple idea and executed it beautifully with exactly the amount of detail it needed and not a word more. I really like the discipline of this. It's hard to believe you've worked something so pleasing out of simple domestic scenes. All the dialogue is punchy and memorable and the way they kept mixing up the invisible boyfriends' names just got funnier every time. I think the reason it's so funny is that neither of the boys sees anything amiss in the fact that their housemate repeatedly mixes up the boyfriend's name, no matter how many times it happens.

I like that we never get to see any of these other men. It reinforces how trivial they are, and keeps the focus slowly on our two boys. Fantastic!

Wow! You pegged exactly what I tried to do. I think there was a lot of subconscious intent at play here, both in forgetting the boyfriends names, and in not really letting it bother them that their flatmate couldn't seem to get it straight. I tried to make it obvious that so many other things annoyed them, but they didn't bat an eye at that. As if somewhere inside, they were pleased by it.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful comment! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! *hugs*

Incredibly lovely. It was such a wonderful thing to have them just share a flat and really get to know each other first. The UST was hot and the way they always, always, "remembered" each others' flings' names wrong made me laugh. ;) The end was brain-meltingly sweet. Very well done!

And the return of the chest monster!! :D :D :D

[alaana_fair]

That was in appreciation of one of the beta's mirrorwakes who had commented to me once that she adored Harry's chest monster. Glad you liked it! *hugs*

This was great! Yes, the getting anems wrong was funny but somehow I love the idea that they have listened to each others rants about other men :) Loved the ending, too. Now I´m thirsty.

I tried to show that they really understand the true meaning of friendship. The listening, the bickering, the comforting, and the forgiving. What a basis for a phenomenal love!

Thank you so much, hun!

It made me smile that they were so intimate with each other without being sexually intimate.

I think this is what makes this relationship so enticing. They truly do love each other without fully understanding what they share.

So glad you liked it! *hugs*
