Ahem. Ok, I'm not going to squee all over you, because that's messy. This was definitely good enough to inspire some squee, though.

When I saw the rating I figured "sex pollen Warehouse fic", and it's certainly a fandom that could support that, but this is so much better. Pete and Myka and Mrs. Fredericks are all perfectly themselves, and I enjoyed watching how things between Claudia and Artie unfolded. I liked the balance -- they both want each other, more than just physically, but also not less than physically, not in a hearts and flowers way. Artie's look of amazement when he touched Claudia's breast is one of those perfect heterosexual moments that don't often crop up in my fandoms.
