I really liked this one too. :)

In all honesty, I didn't care much for Buzz/Jessie until the most recent movie. Lol. They're really a cute pair, and I think you hit Jessie's personality perfectly with the impatience and the waiting.

Omigosh! Going through all of the submitted requests, I noticed this and couldn't help myself (would have much sooner if I'd noticed it). So glad I came and read it! This is amazing! I just went all fuzzy like a yak's coat (wow, I haven't used that saying in awhile...)!!

I think you pegged Jessie perfectly. I mean, both times I watched the movie, I just couldn't figure out what had kept both of them back, Jessie especially, for ten years. I even leaned over to my sister and said, "They're still going round and round?" (and strange enough, right after the movie, Selena Gomez' Round and Round premiered on Radio Disney. I love irony...) I'm convinced Jessie had to know all that time, like you used in this story. So, writing this from Jessie's POV makes perfect sense.

I could go on and on, but overall it's a very delightful story!! <3

Yeah, when I was writing this, I really wanted to focus on why it seemed like Jessie never said anything after all that time. I mean, I can kind of understand why Buzz didn't (he's utter shyness around her is just so adorable XD), but Jessie? Really? I just couldn't figure it out. So I had to write this XD

Over at disneyverse, we had challenge where we had to make a fake iTunes celebrity playlist of a Disney character. I picked Jessie and the whole time I was coming up with the playlist, I kept thinking of this fic, lol. Here's the playlist image: http://i31.tinypic.com/6t0f1h.jpg. Tracks 4, 5, and 11 were especially inspired by your fic.

But yes, I totally agree. She's definitely not shy and it's clear throughout the film she was equally attracted (I think some of my favorite moments in the film are her interactions with Buzz when he's astro-nut again. I LOVE when Buzz calls her temptress. Too funny!). Where was I? Lost myself in a fit of fangirl giggles there for a moment. Oh yeah, I just figured Jessie would have taken the initiative. Anyways, your interpretation...still amazing :D

Wow! That's awesome! I'm flattered that my fic inspired you for that! ^^

*nod nod* Definitely. They seemed pretty cozy together at the end of Toy Story 2 after all (and yeah, I loved those moments with her and astro-Buzz XD I was already fangirling when he mentioned her "bewitching good looks" X3).

I'm just gonna blame Buzz for this one. He seems the type to be a little dense when it comes to girls anyway...But it makes him just so lovable. XD

But anyway, thanks a bunch! ^^
