Very cute!

I think the paragraph starting "you protected me..." was a little more long-winded than Cal ever was on the show, but that's me being picky.

And building the story around a fun poke at the whole 'end-of-the-world nonsense' was inspired!

Plus, I'm thrilled to see some action on this comm!

Thank you!

I completely agree that Cal was never that long-winded on the show, but I hope you'll forgive his moment of it here. I've never written him that way before and doubt I will again, but I felt like trying it out in this one.

The comm is so quiet, isn't it? I've got another fic to come, probably tomorrow, so hopefully it might help a little.

Thanks for reading!

That was so perfect. And so believable. I can so see Emily pushing Cal to do something (because we all know that had the show continued, she would have).

Thank you! I love Emily's meddling. I, too, think we would have seen a lot more of that in season four if we'd got it! Especially when Cal did things wrong... Thanks for reading!

LOL. Oh Emily still working her matchmaking magic. ;) Love the whole poking fun at the End of the World deal. Looks like we survived it after all. ;) I love the little moments of Cal's frustration and Loker admitting to Torres what he wants. Her reply was so awesome. But let's not lie here, if it weren't for Emily, Cal would still never believe he was good enough and they'd never get anywhere.

Can I just say that I am so glad to see another fic from you! And thank you for making think about LTM again. It's been so long. I need some Gillian in my life.

Oh, thank you! ♥ Yes, Emily's interference is one of my favourite things. I do think she and Gillian together would just about be able to convince Cal eventually that he was good enough, and I wish we'd been able to see that play out on screen. But alas, at least it gives me lots to write about! Are you still writing?

And thank you. I certainly don't seem to have moved on from writing these characters in the two years it's been since the show ended, and it's so lovely to still have lovely people like you around to talk to about it. I think I'm going to have to rewatch the show again early next year, because I miss it (and Gillian) so!

Agreed. Eventually Emily and Gillian would be able to convince Cal that he was good enough. Then he'd do whatever it takes to keep her around, I'm sure.

I hope you keep writing these two! I need to rewatch the entire series again too. That way I can start writing them again. I've been writing a bit... just not for LTM. Did a couple Iron Man/Avengers over the summer and for NaNoWriMo I tried out Bleach. Right now, that's my current obsession. :P

I'm always here to talk about LTM whenever you want. :D
