“One of these days, Sam, you’ll learn not to say stupid shit to get a rise out of people, and then everyone shall rejoice.”

Nope, I don't think Sam will ever learn that. Gene should know better XD

Sam's so cute and squishy-insecure here, I just want to hug him.

[lozenger8]

It does say Gene decides to lie :D He knows it.

Thank you ♥ Sam does need a hug.

Whuff! This was so hot, I needed a fire extinguisher! Yeeeee-ow! :D

I love insecure needy Sam and I love that Gene doesn't understand this aspect of him... and that once he figures it out, he just lets Sam be as needy as he wants while giving him what he wants. :D

Nggggggh! It was so exciting, discovering that I missed a fic and having TWO to read. But now I have to waaaaaaait! Argh!

*tail lashes impatiently* Write woman! ;)

Thank you ♥

Oh man, the need is what makes this series a crunchy kind of interesting. They're both so co-dependent, in a really bad way, and they know it.

This is completely perfect. Please don't tear them apart again?

“You’re obscene, you are,” he murmurs between kisses,
“Why are you trying to kill me? First sex ravaged, now poisoned.
“This is my place,”
I love your Gene insane amounts.

This series = ♥♥♥

*innocent whistles*

Gene is so wonderful to write for. So complex.

Thank you ♥

FINALLY! You know, usually I'm all for the U in UST but in this case? I was almost as anxious as Sammy that Gene would go up and leave - again. And then it was great because, although it being all from Gene's POV you've managed to clearly show that Sam is longing for this the same as Gene, maybe even more cause he doesn't know the reasons why he shouldn't. It was heartwrenching. And it was all them. Oh, and it was hot, of course.
So now... think you can reign in your hey-let's-be-realistic-here-side long enough to NOT shatter them to pieces? Please?

Whatever you'll do, great great series and great writing, as always. Oh, you've said somewhere that while comments full of praise are nice they're also boring you a bit, so to make you happy: typo - Pavlov. Merry X-mas.

[lozenger8]

I am never bored of praise, never. That may either have been someone else, or you're thinking of when I was saying more concrit would be great --- alongside the praise :D

OMG. Pavlog. Hah. Thank you. My typos are always so amusing.

...think you can reign in your hey-let's-be-realistic-here-side long enough to NOT shatter them to pieces? Please?

Erm... I make no guarantees.

Thank you!

[lozenger8]

Gene. Even in the face of questioning his morality and knowing he's making bad, bad decisions --- can't help his natural hilarity. :D

I can't guarantee that the ending will please everyone, but I hope it works for you when it finally comes, even if it doesn't match up with your vision.

Thank you ♥
