AAAAHHH I have this big stupid Malkin grin on my face right now, dude, this makes me so so happy :D It's been so damn long since I've read good Sid/Jordan, and I'm really picky about them, but ohh I love this so much. You get across all the knowing, the closeness between them but it still seems like them, goofy boys who aren't entirely sure what they're getting into. Jordan wanting a word for everything works so well with him categorizing and listing his emotions, too, wanting everything to be in order. Love, love, love. :D

Ahhh! It put the biggest friggin grin on my face to read this comment. It's these comments that make it worth it, thank you so much. It's always good when people are picky, keeps me honest. THANK YOU!

I am very picky about who Jordan is paired with. I usally only like Geno with him(I do like that you had him in it too.). But I loved this to death.

I love how he didn't have a word for Sid but a mixs off emotison's. How he almost said "I love you"(I am guessing) but stopped himself. And just how the whole thing flows is amazing.

Awasome job.

[heartandmindxx]

Yea you're right with the guess there =). I was worried about the flow, I'm glad you think it's good!

Thank you so much!

[heartandmindxx]

Aw, thanks. =)

I just want to *flail* all over the place. I loved this like craaaaaaaazy. It's believable and well-characterized, and well-written.

his first word, for the record, was ’sod’
Nice touch. XD

And the mini scene with Malkin was adorable, and of course I lovedlovedloved:

“You’re retarded,” Jordan says between breaths, “I...”

He trails off as he realizes which word is on the tip of his tongue.

And then, he gets it.
Gah. &hearts BOYS.

He can’t think of a word for Sid, not now, not ever, but as he looks around he knows he’s probably not the only one. And that maybe, between himself and the 17 000 strong behind him, they’ll be able to think of something.
I don't even know, this might have been my favorite line: so lovely.

Oh man, you are seriously the best for writing this comment. Thank you so much, it makes my heart swell with happiness. And I love that you like that last line you quoted, it was one of the first lines I wrote and I really like it too. THANK YOU!
