For me? Wheee! No-one's ever written me something before so that's lovely enough in of itself but this: ♥ ♥ ♥

"Good. First, are you concerned that you have a venereal disease, and want me to check out your penis?"
Heehee! Oh, poor Peter Mills.

"Severide's the man to go to. He has plenty of experience in the matter," she adds, because why kill Severide when there's fun to be had?
Yes, exactly. Good choice, Shay. Mwuhahaha.

either Severide getting flack when it gets around that he's the resident VD expert, or Elise getting the wrong idea about him, or Shay making Severide act as wingman for her
Either of those would be awesome, if you decide to write more. And yes, Severide would be better at it. Unless he's out for a bit of (fun) revenge after he hears what she said about him and then he'd probably purposefully mess it up some way.

Thank you for such a fun read ♥ I'm going to bed with a big goofy smile on my face.

I was hoping you might like something silly! So glad it made you smile! I wanted to write you a little something after you reassured me about my last fic.

I'd love to write some more, because Severide and Shay together are just adorable. If I had a better handle on the other character's voices, all the guys giving Severide shit would be fun, but I'm not sure I could manage that. Perhaps an awkward conversation between Elise and Shay though - with Shay setting Elise up with Severide because she likes her fun, but she's not mean.

But that already made me happy too. Not that I'm complaining, mind! Not one teeny tiny bit. Just saying that I enjoyed doing it :)

They truly are adorable. Yeah, I trust you could do it but I can also imagine their voices are a bit hard to find because we haven't seen as much of those characters yet. Elise and Shay could be fun, too!

Well, I didn't have much writing time yesterday, and I discovered when I got on the train that my little notebook only had three empty pages left, but I filled them with some silly Otis & Severide and Casey & Severide scenes. I'll type it up today and tidy it up, and hopefully make something of it. I'm having fun with this!

Ah, brilliant. I just giggled through the whole thing.

Poor David Mills. I love Shay so much. Her giving people shit is the best thing ever.

And, yeah, Severide totally deserves the VD thing.

I'd love to see what he says when he hears about that.

I'm glad it made you laugh! Shay and Severide's relationship is definitely one of my favourite things about this show, especially when they're being just a little childish! *g*
