Loved this. :)

Playfulness, friendly teasing, a hint of meaningful conversation that says a lot without actually saying much at all AND some sort of resolved relationship. It seems to me you manage to check all the requirements for a perfect fic. Well done, dear! :)

Love this so much! <3 Their exchange while Lee is getting the tattoo is very sweet, in their own way. I think you captured them so well, especially Kara's voice. Also, that ending is perfection! *happy sigh*

I love how often we feel the need to qualify comments with 'for them' lol. It's so funny what we think is sweet 'for them' whereas other pairing fans would be like 'huh? sweet? nothing even happened remotely resembling sweet!' :)

Glad you liked it! Yay! :D

Beautiful! I love the tension between them and in Lee not knowing what the tattoo would say. I love that even when one of the looses a bet, they don't really loose.:)
