*SQUEE*

This is SO. ADORABLE!!!

Matchmaker!Iker is all kinds of determined and funny, and the misunderstanding between Pablo and Carlos really reaches Shakespearing proportions at times, and I love the fact that, throughout the fic, their friendship is there, in the background but giving a believable basis to everything that's happened.

And that little schedule of missed opportunities made my day, too!

Between this fic and a cup of hot chocolate, my Sunday morning is suddenly much brighter!

:D

OMG! *squeeeee* You read this! And you liked it! And you commented! OMG! :D

Thank you so much for your kind words, I'm so thrilled you enjoyed this so much! You're absolutely spot on about the "Shakespearean proportions" this thing reaches, and it was a lot of fun to write. :D I'm also glad that the friendship between them shone through because that's one of the most important points of this and I was hoping to convey it. :D

THANK YOU!

(Mmmm, chocolate! :D And it was Igor, not Iker, btw. ;))

See why I should write comments only when I am completely awake (ie, not on a Sunday morning)? Of course it's Igor. Oh, look, and I misspelled Shakespearean too. *facepalm*

ANYWAY, it was a lovely fic and your point on their friendship came out really well!

:D

I loved it. I loved to bits, I love the characters and the pairing, I loved the misunderstandings and the happy end. I love the way you write - it's always true - but I love the way you lovingly wrote them so much, I can't even express it well enough ( ... )

OMG, YAY!!! I'm SO GLAD you enjoyed this so much! *bounces around madly* And I'm also glad that my opinion of these two awesome guys came across in my writing! :D This is a really important fic for me, so it's good to know it didn't disappoint! :) And I just loved the idea of Igor playing matchmaker when it entered my head, there was no way I was going to pass on it! :D ( ... )
