Oh my word. You have no idea how happy you've just made me. I was at work when I got the notification of your update to FFnet and I almost squealed out loud. It was pure torture waiting until I got home to read this but fuck was it ever worth it.

I love the way you wrote this, that their first time was desperate and fumbling and passionate and hot and, for their respective personalities, perfect. This whole chapter, this ENTIRE STORY, is just perfect.

[nehalenia]

Thank you so much! You have no idea how grateful I am that there are still people interested in reading this. I'm glad you think the wait was worth it. Writing this chapter was kind of like climbing Everest, and after such a long wait, I just really hoped people would think it was worth it. Really happy you think I got their personalities right. Whew!

[nehalenia]

Yay, you're still alive! :D How are you these days? I'm so happy you liked this. (I love dumb boys, most especially these two particular dumb boys.)

*deep breaths*

WOW. I almost can't believe how easy it was to fall back into this story. It really didn't feel at all like there was that much time between the previous chapter and this one. Even though there was. But oh LORD it was well worth the wait!

The thing I will always love best about this pair is their bantering/bickering. And you let them continue it, even during and after sex. For some reason that just makes it over 9000 times hotter. It's like, even though they've become a couple, the rough and sharp edges of their relationship are still there, making it even more interesting.

TL;DR: HOORAY!!!! So good to see you writing fic again. <3<3<3

Thank you, Alex! I'm relieved to hear that you think it flows well from the last chapter despite the criminally long wait. I did do a lot of re-reading to make sure I hadn't blown continuity or anything, and I had many doubtful moments about the writing so I'm glad you think it worked out. Also really glad to hear it was worth the wait. And yeah, I don't think these two will ever stop bickering and having stupid fights. (Hopefully that means there will be lots of make up sex in their future.) ;)

Finally comenting on this, hehehehe :D Until today I regained my sanity which went to hell yesterday, I've been reading this fic over and over... I am sooo pleased, so happy, pure bliss *_______________* I taste it like a good meal or like a glass of water after walking in the sahara

Thank you thank you muchas gracias for the beautiful review. I'm so glad you liked those parts. Poor Ichigo, I don't think he's normally the jealous type, but Toru did cause him a lot of trouble. Maybe he'll calm down a bit now that Toru is out of the picture. I'm happy you liked Urahara's condoms -- he probably has branched out into a whole line of products like that. Maybe he'll try to get Ichigo & Uryuu to test out some more? XD And yes, things could have been very different if Ichigo had known where to look for the condoms. I still think they would have gotten together eventually, but it was fun to make Ichigo confused and crazy for a week. ;)

Thank you again for the wonderful review. If you are happy with this chapter, then so am I.

we need a one shot (or several, hur) with them trying different products by Urahara and getting hilarious results, awful results, ackward ones and even unexpectedly good ones xD well, no matter what they end having a good moment (love trumphs all!)

[nehalenia]

Yes, I've considered that. I'm just wondering what it would take for Ishida to get over his suspicion of Urahara & his products. Maybe if he gets horny enough? i suspect he'll come around to those special condoms eventually.
