[I've been reading your fics for a while now, but never felt the courage to actually comment. JSYK. >>]

Honestly, what I wanted more than anything while watching Terrors (other than the SB/MM kiss, GAH ♥) was for Conner and cam to be friends, so this fic is pretty much a godsend even with its bittersweet ending. Keep up the awesome work!

[runic_binary]

Aww. Never be afraid to comment! I don't, like, hit people. (Unless they ask.)

Yeah I really just wanted them to be friends too so I'm glad this went over well. In my imagination they manage to achieve bro-hood regardless of this event. >_>

OMG, ♥! I was thinking more along the lines that Conner and Cam would accept they're on different sides but still hang out on their off time, kind of like what the Flash did in Justice League Unlimited. It's an awesome bromance!

[runic_binary]

Personally I'm hoping Cam comes to his senses and tries for rehabilitation and a shot at decent living because then he and Conner could be bros full-time. But that's just me.

[gobblinmarket]

I hope so too though I could see Cam being more of an antihero than anything else. Otherwise if they stick to their respective teams, they'll just be like Republicans and Democrats: they'll just not talk about work ^^

Is this a one-shot or you going to write more on the Bromance That Doesn't Exist Yet?

[runic_binary]

I'm not sure yet. If inspiration strikes, I might.

Aaaaaa ;; This is the OP for that prompt, who is too lazy to hit back/log out, ffff >>a BUT I LOVED THIS SO MUCH.

I loved how Connor's comments were so few when compared to Cam's, but they hit just as hard because they had this devastating precision. And it was perfect how you kept that slight element of innocence - with the "What do you want me to call you?", and the fact that he just set everything up beforehand so he could convince Cam to come with him. Shot me through the heart.

And that ending ;; I asked for tragic, and you hit it on the mark. Oh Cam, you poor bb. I really love how the driving element for his refusal of Connor wasn't his anger at the betrayal, but rather seeing how much Connor cared after the fact and not wanting to break it. Even with how sad it was, I still saw two bros trying to protect each other, each in their own way.

L-lol I'm rambling. Thank you for this fill; it's so very lovely ♥

[runic_binary]

It is the Bromance That Can Never Be and it is very sad indeed. But I'm glad you liked it! How I'd hoped you would. :)

Ahhh!!! All my tears, all of them!! Why don't I have an Icicle Jr icon yet??

[runic_binary]

Good question! Perhaps because nobody has made a good one. (My extra icons expired and I am in constant mourning.)

[a_big_apple]

I shall just have to make one! I am sadly lacking in YJ toon icons, in general. I am a little icon-happy; I keep renewing my extras, lol.

Oh, he is trying not to sully Superboy, and all SB knows is that he's been rejected again! :(

[runic_binary]

At least he has Martian cuddles now. That has to help a little.
