Oh, you did it, you did it, you did it!

Fantastic to the end, your little Esca just begs to be picked up and cuddled, even though he'd totally hate it, and that would be the entire point.

Thank heavens for level-headed (mostly) Marcus who didn't let him get away in the end, or, come to think of it, get away with anything, and who got to give Placidus a black eye. Genius.

I loved this all the way through, hot and sweet and funny, and you now have the honour of being the only person I will willingly read WIPs from.

Now. About GK ...

Couldn't have done it without all your support and egging on (and guilting, haha)! I'm so not prolific, so it really helps to have a cheerleader :D I hope it was worth the wait!

It's been fun to break out the pom poms (and sorry about the guilting).

Definitely worth the wait - the end was satisfying and followed the rest in one smooth flow. (And hot of course!!)

We'll let you have a week or so off now...

If I fall asleep at work tomorrow (well, today), it's your fault because I couldn't stop reading! Awesome!

I REGRET NOTHING \o/

Couldn't put this down--the characters are so vibrant in this, especially Esca, and I felt every twist of the road with him. Such great dialogue, and I love how Marcus quietly insinuates himself into Esca's life and never lets go. All the echoes of canon worked so well, too. And Placidus is absolutely hilarious and perfect. Lassie--I could not stop laughing. Also the description of Uncle Aquila and the Legate (not really, but I forget his name!) as behaving like two housewives on Adderall. :D

Hee, I'm happy to hear this massive story was engaging (and didn't like, totally drop off halfway through). I had so much fun writing the characters and I'm guess that showed through. Thanks for all your cheerleading, I'm so happy to finally finish this story and not tortue you all with a WIP!

Oh, bb, that was so worth the wait! I was cheating a bit, because I read the new part first and will only now reread the whole story, but I wanted to tell you that I love the ending! And the awkward but good sex, oh man! This is absolute perfection :D

Thank you honey buns! Absolutely couldn't have done it without you and Meg's commenting and flail XD You guys made it so much fun to write, so seriously thanksss

We're just mere facilitators, it's the least we can do for incredibly talented authors like yourself :D After all we got a fic to read out of it, right?
Oh, oh, and your Placidus was perfect till the very end!
