Xyssssssssssssssss! Every single one of these is brilliant! Every single one! <3

I think my favourite is possibly the gunshot one... Sam and Gene arguing during a shoot out <3333 And the sudden change of pace once they realise Gene's been shot - it's wonderful! And I like how we as the readers don't know the exact moment Gene got hit, just the same as Sam :D And Sam's reaction is heartbreaking! <33333

The lack-of-food one is fantastic too - Gene not taking care of himself properly and Sam having to step in is a scenario I really love :D. And oh god, the one in the gym and the dancing ones <3333 GAH. THEY ARE ALL SO GOOD. ALL OF THEM.

Oh, and the last one? GENIUS XD You are fabulous!

They would be arguing anywhere... and hehe, I'm glad you liked the last one xD Thanks sooo much, I'm really, really glad you liked it!!!!

(And, uhm, if you see this, my stupid brother downloaded porn infected with a virus onto our computer, my writing folder is safe but the computer needs fixing. So the next chapter of B&L will be a while. Sorry D:)

They all are BRILLIANT, but I found this especially moving:

Sam made a mental note to ‘check up’ on Gene more often, as he swigged expensive single malt and made serious inroads into his chips, one hand holding his fork, the other resting on the sofa back behind Gene, fingertips resting lightly on the old dressing gown.

BRB EATING MY FEELINGS

So many feels. These are lovely. I have a soft spot for the kid!Gene fic, really heartbreaking, poor wee bugger.

I really like how you're open to trying new and different tones, scenarios, characters, everything. So admirable, and you do so well with all of them!
