This is brilliant. Love the descriptions of the landscape, Arthur and Eames banter, even as they pirouette around their attraction, and Yusef. Plus they're stopping the ivory/rhinoceros horn trade. Go team!!

On this particular matter, he is set in his ways to the point of calcification

-Loved that line. Witty and clever both!

Haha, go anti-poaching team for sure! I'm so glad you enjoyed this, and that you liked that line! I think even Eames probably has some long-held habits. Why not.

Thank you for your kindness!

This is brilliantly beautiful. Not only is the story itself engaging and lovely but the way it's written just blows my mind. Like every word was chosen because it was the absolute best, and combined with the words around them would form a weapon, sharp and cutting and perfect.

Oh, man. That is super generous of you. I'm so, so happy that this worked for you and that the word choices worked so effectively and specifically--I am pleased as punch--it's all I could hope for!

Thank you so much.

Oh, I really liked this ♥ I love the last bit with Yusuf and I like that Arthur has some regrets. And Eames, oh ♥

Thank you so much! I like that last bit with Yusuf a lot, too. Yusuf! He creeps up on you. I'm so glad you enjoyed Arthur and Eames, too. ♥

Love love love love! I especially love how you set the whole fic mostly in Kenya, so everything is hot and vibrant and lively. :)

"Eames refuses to navigate the mess gingerly and barrels through, piles of paper be damned. It's a matter of principle, and if it gets Arthur to move out more quickly, well, masha'Allah."
I laughed hard at this line. XD Oh Eames!

I also love their 'fight' over BFF Yusuf! :D And the part about Arthur working out, hotdamn.

My favourite section would have to be where you described Eames and his past relationships, that was beautiful. And thank you for giving them a happy ending! And the unwritten kiss, that was just lovely.

I'm so glad you liked this! Thank you so much for your generous feedback. I'm glad you liked the setting in Kenya, and the section about Eames and his ex-loves. That was one of my favorite parts to write.

Thank you again!
