Awwww, SIGH, EAMES. ♥ This is such a touching, lovely story. Arthur is so very Arthur, and his insecurity and longing just made me ache. Fandom needs more ace fic.

Rereading forever.

I loved this ♥, especially being able to identify with Arthur's insecurities so well. And I love your Eames for being so accepting and for wanting to make this work and for just being able to take Arthur as he is. Thank you for writing this.

Thanks very much <33

I'm ace myself, and reading this brilliant piece of writing felt like looking into a mirror.

Thank you so much for this story.

I'm surprised how many aces are into slash fiction! But I know in my case I cannot read het because being able to project myself onto the female makes me waay too uncomfortable, haha.

Thanks for reading <3

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't have attempted this if I weren't asexual myself xD Thanks for reading <3

Are you really? Wow. Thanks for taking the time to write about this and share your perspective. And I agree with the OP that we tend to avoid writing about concepts that we do not wish to misrepresent.

I actually learned something from reading fanfiction!
