LOVE. So much love, dude!

And so sweet - I love your Nick's P. O. V.

Also - impressive fast-typing. Less than twenty-four hours? You deserve a medal!

Consider yourself well and truly hugged for this.

\0/ Darling, I'm so glad you liked it! And, y'know, that Nick worked because I've never really done much of a POV thing.

Eh, the actual writing didn't take too long. The agonising over grammar and words and so on, and trying to write to the limit of 2500? That was a bit harder.

*clings* Thanks love!

Awww, adorable!

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it. *beams like a fool*

So not enough people write Nick/Tyson, and I always love a well-written fic with the two of them. I thought your Nick voice was pretty spot on, and the description of a Tyson hug at the beginning seemed perfect.

[xaritomene]

Yes, it's a sadly under-represented fandom, isn't it? :( I'm glad you liked this fic, thank you! I've actually never written Nick POV before, so it's a wonderful relief to hear that it worked. *g*

Awwwww.... That's just sooo amazing. I love, love, love it.

How it was almost going down the wrong way, and Tyson was so close too being gone and everything would have been ruined. But Nick manages to catch up somehow. And, euhm, hai, not making sense anymore, will now stop.

It's exactly what I needed right now.
Thank you so so much. ♥
I can borrow your Tyson for a couple of hours? Y/y?

[xaritomene]

*beams* Aw, love, thank you so much! And you know me, I can rarely ever give these boys an unhappy ending. *grin*

*g* I'm glad it cheered you up for a bit, darling. Here, have Tyson, he's pretty good for the cheering up. :D
