That was very sweet. I really enjoyed this fic and the way you wrote this pairing.

Thank you so much! It certainly turned out sweeter than I planned, but I don't really mind :)

Guh. I absolutely love this. The way you've got them so completely in sync with each other. And your Bones characterization is amazing. His insecurity, his platonic and yet not-so platonic love for Jim, the way he'd do anything for him without even thinking.

That's love right there.

Also, you broke my heart a little when you had Jim give away his minutes :(. His selfless attitude, while endearing and so Jim, is devastating in the fact that he acquired that due to his poor childhood.

Thank you for this because it was completely touching. <333

Wow! Your comment just made my year! I'm so glad all of that came through for you, because this is actually a different perspective than I usually use. Jim also broke my heart a little, a love-starved boy that finally found someone to love him <3

Thanks so much for reading and commenting!

Most Adorable Story Ever! Who ever knew Jim could be so romantic? <3

[sinewa]

Everyone talks about Bones being hard on the outside with a marshmallow center, but Jim can be just as deep and romantic, I think. Sekritly Romantic!Jim is my favorite :)

Thank you so much!

This melted me into a big puddle. Jim's gifts were so sweet, and the line about him looking exhausted and sad because Bones hadn't responded to his poem right away made my heart twinge a little. Lovely, lovely. ♥

[sinewa]

Aww, thank you. That line makes me twinge a little too, because Jim might be confident and in love, but there's always that niggling fear in the back of his mind.
