This had so much goodness in it.

The summary and the line about friends not letting friends go on holiday with the Vecchios was priceless.

A really lovely mix of emotion throughout the whole thing.

Lots of smiles and awww moments.

The whole concept was great.

A lovely story.

Oh honey, this is so fabulous. I love the premise, and the way you sectioned it by lands, and how Fraser needs to make good with Ray's family first because he knows Ray THAT WELL, and Fraser's ridiculously bad hypotheticals (*rotf*), and the sweet, sweet ending. You are love.

YOU are love. Thank you! :)

You did it again -- made my brain go kaplooey and my heart go THUD. The whole thing was just too, too lovely for words (unless I was willing to quote the whole story, lol).

The family scenes had me laughing til I hurt -- my hubby's family is muchly like the Vecchios, and mine is, well, not, and I did NOT adapt as well as Fraser. *grin*

And the look-see into poor Ray's mind and heart was precious, and a little bit 'ouchy' at times, and oh so sweet at the end, and just... yummy.

Yay Snoopy for asking for Vecchios!

You are a brave soul, marrying into a family like that. *g*

Thank you so much!

Yay, thank you! :D

Hurray! Fabulous use of the setting here. I especially liked the surrealism of the Tikki room, and the whole idea of Fraser deciding that the way to Ray's heart was through his family.

Thank you, keerawa!
