HEEEEheheheheh~ My my, the banter in this is quite lovely... And you know how I enjoy my banter~ *w*

The simplicity of this is very appealing, it adds to it in a kind of "less is more" way. T'was a fun read. <3

[little_cello]

Ahhh thank you so much Aima! ; v; I'm really glad I got the banter right~ <333

When I wrote this, I sort of imagined that someone listened to this in the dark, aka wasn't able to see the two, just hear them talk and stuff. I didn't manage to go through with it for the entire ficlet, but overall I succeeded I think. It was pretty challenging, actually! x3

[aisforinterval]

UWAAAAAAAAAAHHHH, that's a cool way to imagine it, CUZ THAT'S THE WAY I IMAGINED IT WHEN I READ IT. oHo;;; Guess you succeeded, huh~? xD

[little_cello]

*__* YES! omg yes, mission success indeed~~ <333

Cello! This is adorable, I love it. Their bickering is the best thing. ♥ You absolutely nailed the voices.

“Christ, you're a big fool. An' now you'll have to deal with the taste of bad wine in my mouth.”
That is my favourite.

:'D Thank you so much, Sky!! Hnng it means a lot to me that you say this, I'm always a bit worried when I write fic that I'm not doing their voices well... so, thank you! <3333

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH, this is SO GOOOOOOOOD!

Their banter oh my god. The dialogue is wonderful :D And I love the description of the sounds their movements make, rather than the movements themselves - it really does make you feel like you're listening to something private that you shouldn't be :D It's brilliant! <3333

[little_cello]

Ferrnnnnn <333 Thank you so so much!! ; v; I'm so glad you enjoyed it~

This is absolutely hilarious and the banter is perfectly them! You should never worry, because you seem to capture the appropriate snarkiness every time! I love the constant bad wine teasing, but I particularly love "run out of names to call me?" Ahahahahaha.

So sweet! There hasn't been a dialogue-only fic for a while, but I do love the format!

[little_cello]

Awww thank you so much, Basalt! <333 And I'm so glad you think I got the banter and snarkiness right, it means a lot to me! It especially gives me confidence to keep writing.
I had a lot of fun writing the bad wine teases actually, because I can so imagine Sam constantly bringing it up and annoying the hell out of Gene with it. xD

I really like dialogue-only, for some reason - it kind of gives me a lot of possibilities and things to play with. That, and sometimes I feel I'm not that good at writing descriptions. XD So dialogue-only is really nice for me. I'm glad you like it as well! <3

Oh, this is great! I actually felt like a "stalker", listening in on what they were saying/doing!!

And I love how Gene set up all that! What a sly dog! ;) :D

:'33 Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
