Awww. Love the mix of angst and fluffer-ness you've got going on here, and your Cara and Kahlan voices are so spot on. All of their little exchanges were killing me, so cute/hot/funny/perfect.

Also I don't think I will ever get tired of reading about them messing around in Kahlan's bed. Hnnggg.

Bwahaha, "angst". I think this is probably the most unabashedly fluffy and sentimental thing I've ever written, it's basically 13k words of SNUGGLING (don't tell Cara). I think this is my inner sap rebelling after the last story I posted that had no spooning at all.

Thanks for reading, bb! :D

Omg this was amazing. That punch of angst near the end had me chin-in-hand-and-eyes-wide WORRIED, well done!

And then:
She will face this battle, like any other, without hesitation.
Aww. Cara would totally see her feelings as a battle to be fought.

Speaking of which, nobody writes Cara like you do and I mean that in the best way possible. All the (often hilarious) insights you give into her thoughts and reasons for doing things are so spot-on perfect. Also blushy Kahlan is never not super enjoyable. Looove.

I enjoyed the flashback, also, since I was REALLY CURIOUS about how/why Cara ended up kissing Kahlan on her wedding day. So thank you for that!

(Also, I confess to being curious about what animal Richard will turn into next!)

Lastly, is the title a reference to cupid arrows??? Been trying to wrap my brain around what that means since I saw it, haha.

Dude! Thank you! That is a huge compliment and I'm going to totally soak it up and let it go to my head, even though I suspect that Cara is not actually that hard to write. Really, thank you.

OBVIOUSLY there were going to be flashbacks! LOL, no off-screen kissing here. I'm just not very good at telling stuff in the right order.

Bwaahahaha, I couldn't resist, Richard IS kind of a puppy when it comes to being Lord Rahl. Cara's subconscious and I are in agreement about this. He'd also make a striking unicorn.

The title is from a Metric song! It seemed silly to write something as sentimental as this and NOT use song lyrics for a title. It's like fandom manners.

ZOMG LOVE! THERE ARE SO MAnY THINGS I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO START. PUPPY RICHARD IS MY FAVORITE. And Cara slinging Kahlan over her shoulder is the BEST EVER, LOL OH CARA. You call this fluff but there are so many things going on and you have this way of letting things unfold at a really interesting pace, I think I need to read it again to get all the details. Your writing does so many things to me, it's crazy. NEVER STOP. ♥♥♥

I know you're not really in the LotS fandom (BUT YOU SHOULD BE, IT'S FUN HERE), so it makes me feel all ~special~ that you still read my stuff. I'm really glad you liked this! Cara carrying Kahlan over her shoulder was kind of relevant to my interests. Um.

Aw, this fic. I want to twirl it, and take it home and feed it sweet tea and biscuits. Your Cara is so perfect.

Ha ha! It's free for a good home, although you should know it comes with a very cranky Mord'Sith.

Thank you so much! :D
