*happy sigh* lovely hurt/comfort, and a tantalizing glimpse at the extent of James' powers! Love James proactively wanting to work out what's going on...

All the hurt/comfort! And all the unspoken love! :-)

James is definitely not a passive sort of person. Sometimes in need of support, but more proactive than Michael--which is good for Michael, really, giving him a sense of purpose. And they certainly know each other more intimately than anyone else ever has, even without having the sex yet. :-)

Mmm, slow burn! I love that they're both acknowledging the desire and waiting for a better time to consummate it, but not really putting their lives on hold in the meantime, or at least not completely. I mean I like "love at first sight = monogamous at first sight" too, but this is a refreshing change of pace and works well for James's character.

Cat-people grooming James! James as an adopted kitten! Hahaha, that is too perfect!

Aww, Michael looking out for his apprentice and being proud when his enforced break does help James. Good master!

Love the descriptions of what it feels like to tap into the Force, and the way James has to find a different way to solve the puzzle ball. It's awesome that they'll have different strengths as Jedis. They'll be an awesome team, which I'm sure Patrick & Ian know...

“That’s…sort of unethical…please don’t be evil…I do trust them. So do you.”

Hahaha, Michael, if James wanted you to come to the dark side, you'd already be there. No cookies needed.
