Might I say: this story is beyond entertaining; add to it the style that you adopted for it, and it is just great fun. I really love how distinct the voices of each character are and how what they're really trying to do is defend themselves a bit but without vindictiveness. They see the story from entirely different perspectives (one confused beyond belief, the other fearing denial, both very longing) but they tell the same story without being entirely opposed. It's a very nice and unspoken chemistry. I like them very much as a pair. I'm not sure if I could even see the story told in any other way. Without the polarity, the story would just be too indifferent. Again, great fun reading this. It's also quite a different story from Nerves, which is the story that made me begin reading your work to begin with. At first, I had no intention of reading this and thought I'd have little interest in it (odd, considering I love romantic comedies, but meh). You proved me quite wrong. Do continue. It's wonderful. :)

this is going to be short, but:
I love it! you know I do, this story is my favorite of all the light-hearted ones I've read from you! So please update soon, I know I'm spoiled but you've been gone for so long I'm feeling rather dejected. *guilt-trip*
oh, Gareth, I adore you so. :)

This is always so fun to read. I'm glad you updated! I can't wait to find out more about Saul and his past with Gareth, as well as Jonty's view of all of this. Great job!

Yes! I've been waiting a long time for this update to come out. I love Gareth's point of view and the way Lottie and Markku are able to talk him into almost anything. Jonty is a little dense for my tastes but he's still and enjoyable character and I can't wait to read more.

The roller coaster that is Gareth's emotions, but least he rises quickly.

so, finished reading, well what you have up anyway [please tell me there's an update coming soon, lie to me if you have to] and frankly I'm in love, this is one of the best stories I've read in a while, and it came just when I was despairing a little bit about the quality of slash in fp. So, again, congratulations on a wonderful story, real changes of POV and Gareth [and I totally agree with the just wanting to feel prettier thing]
XOXO

let me start by telling you that I usually wait until I finish reading a story before reviewing it, but I just had to:
I Love, Love, Love it! It's so wonderfully entertaining, and funny, and witty, and so well written that I just want to gush endlessly about how great it is...seriously, I've had this amused smile from the beginning of the story, and that line about not being a Greek play? ♥ and the characters? perfect in their portrayal and they just make you want to know them...
Kudos, and I'll definitively keep on reading.

This story is REALLY BLOODY AWESOME. Utterly entrancing characterisation, your characters are hilarious and developed and delightfully quirky. Can totally tell that a lot of effort and care went into the character interaction and it paid off! The miscommunication and self-conscious awkwardness come across very convincingly. An extremely entertaining read; I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to more! :D
