I... first of all, thank you forever for writing this pairing and just, this fandom really.

On to the actual comment:

I loved this so much. I love how simple it is, in a way. Your writing is fluid and to the point and it feels a lot like them, somehow. I love how had all those references without being too: LOOK HERE. MOVIE MENTION. They were really well incorporated into the story.

There is something really endearing about this story, and the characters, and just... thank you for this. It put the biggest, goofiest smile on my face, much like a Pegg/Frost/Wright collaboration usually does.

Wow, thank you so much for such kind and thoughtful feedback. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it. I'm so glad to know that the characters felt right and that the writing style worked for them and the story. This is a fandom and characters that I really connected with, so it's just great to know I did them justice.

I'm absolutely thrilled that you enjoyed it and found it endearing and especially that it made you smile. Just thrilled. That such a fabulous compliment. Thank you, so very much!!

Also, if you're curious, there's actually a burgeoning little Hot Fuzz fandom here on LJ. sandfordpolice We even have our own Fic Index (which I'd link to except my HTML skills are poor to non-existant) - which is fairly up to date. I can't vouch for the quality of all the fic - but there are definitely quite a few gems!

Oh, my heart is fluttering!

Hot Fuzz is awesome. Slash is fantastic. The combination is downright mind-blowing and I'm buzzing on it. How am I going to sleep now? At least when I finally do I am guaranteed good dreams.

It's so Danny! And so Nicholas!

All this to the effect of ~ hey, I loved your story. Y'know. <3

[skitz_phenom]

(So sorry for the delay in replying - gah, silly eljay and it's comment notification lameness!)

I'm just so very thrilled and happy to have made your heart flutter, and I certainly hope you ended up having pleasant dreams!!

It's always great to know that a story, and the characterization works. I'm just ecstatic that you enjoyed this so much. I can't thank you enough for such lovely and wonderful feedback. THANK YOU!!

You have achieved Nicholas/Danny perfection. This whole story was brilliance from the first line to the last - never once did I find an out of character moment or line. I love this movie and own it and the soundtrack too (just to be a complete geek about things heh) and reading this was like watching an epilogue to the film.

Also, omg, bonus points for swan mention! =D

I really enjoyed this. Well done!

[skitz_phenom]

Wow, thank you for such a glowing comment. I'm so very thrilled that you enjoyed this! I'm especially happy to hear that you found Nicholas and Danny to be in character.

Hey, there's nothing wrong with being a geek about such things! Heck, I've got the UK 2 Disc release, the US 1 disc as well as the US Soundtrack. There's also a special 3-disc US release due out sometime soon!! (Because the extras are phenominal!)

Sorry for not replying to your comment sooner - but my comment notification isn't cooperating!

Thank you again, so very much!!

“Oh my God!” Danny exclaimed suddenly, turning to Nicholas with an animated grin. “It’s the Andes, isn’t it?”

This line, it sporfled me.

Comedy of awkwardness is a bitch to write, but by golly you did it fantastically.

[skitz_phenom]

I have caused sporfle... I am ded from glee!

Seriously though, thanks so much!! Coming from someone who writes fic that makes me scare my co-workers with hysterical laughter (perhaps 'braying' might a more accurate term...) - I'm just, thrilled that it worked for you!

[annlarimer]

Let's get married!

[skitz_phenom]

I'm up for it! Except I can't wear the tux. I have a pathological fear of wearing neck ties - which sadly includes the bow tie, the ascot and the cravat. Neckerchiefs are iffy, at best. Bolo ties are far too tacky to consider.

“Oh my God!” Danny exclaimed suddenly, turning to Nicholas with an animated grin. “It’s the Andes, isn’t it?”

This made me laugh so hard.

[mikes_grrl]

Same here - I thought Danny was being pretty obvious, and this was a great curveball and wayyy funny!

[skitz_phenom]

Hee! I'm so glad you got a laugh out of this! Thanks so much for commenting! :)
