*uses the most caffeinated icon she has*

Wow, that made my toes curl. Really nicely done.

[wickedwords]

Thanks! I had a blast writing it, too.

[nestra]

Oh, yeah. *happy sigh* I should be ashamed at how much I love this challenge, but I'm just too blissed to have any dignity left.

[wickedwords]

Dignity is seriously overrated if you ask me. *g* This challenge is like the Lord King Bad Vid thing, but without the bad. Thanks!

[fanofall]

Who needs dignity when we have Atlantis and Harlequin romance? *scoffs*

mmmm....coffee....
Loved the sensory descriptions, how John tasted and smelled. Very immediate and real and yummy. Rodney is such a hedonist, and you bring that out amazingly well. Thanks for sharing this.

[wickedwords]

Rodney is so fun to play with, because everything is extremes with him; I love that he knows what he wants and how he wants it, and yet things don't quite the way he envisions. I'm really glad you liked it.

[thegrrrl2002]

Oh, yum. This is incredibly sensual and just plain lovely. It made me very happy. Thank you.

[wickedwords]

Oh,no. Thank you! The fact that you thought it was sensual really pleases me. Yay!

[coreopsis]

Oh yeah, that's the stuff. *g*

[wickedwords]

Thank you! Even when you squish them into reality, the guys are still such fun to write.
