Oz tells Gilbert that he smells of warm things - wispy curls of tobacco, tired leather worn over clean linens,  black coffee and brown sugar edged with a musk all his own. Wriggling up close to him,

Oh my god...There are seriously no words. These...all of them...

I really can't express anything of how I feel right now. There's this tight, vice-like, grip on my chest, my mind is reeling, and I think I love you. And I think I may just give up on trying to write for our raven-haired angst bunny because you have him pegged so well...

I don't even enjoy Oz/Gil all that much, but the way you portray it in that beautifully guilt ridden longing is just so damnably perfect. And the thoughts, the bone-deep regret and self-loathing, the pain and the silent spiral into nothingness...I just can't fathom how you can do all of it so well and in so few words.

...Whoa. That is seriously one of the best reviews I've gotten in a loooong time. I'm so flattered and appreciative right now that all I can really do is just thank you over and over again. Oh oh oh and do keep writing for him! Gilbert can use literally ALL the fiction he can get, seeing as his fate doesn't look too promising as it stands in canon at the moment. The poor boy, I just can't. T_T

"Break croons with a hot, silken curl of a smile"…delicious phrasing!

I think "oracle" and "sun" are my faves.

[larouille]

Thank you muchly, dear! Break is far too fun to write about, what with his devious expressions and the like. And thank you for picking out your favorites, too! I was hoping that some would stand out to the readers, and you happened to pick two of my favorites as well~

I just love how the tone changed from fluff to severe angst XD But that's Gil for you.

But really, you got his personality down really well :D

[larouille]

Ahhh, thank you, love! He really is quite the whirlwind of emotions, to be sure. Probably why he's so devilishly fun to write~

[crystal3purity]

No problem! ^^
Probably XD

There's something so intense about all of them, it's incredible how you managed to capture so much in just 100 words per drabble! My (imaginary) hat is off to you.

"Touch" drew me in right from the beginning - I adore the imagery of Gil smelling of warm things, and Oz wriggling in to want to absorb more. There's so much tension in Gil trying not to just grab and hold on and it hurts my heart ;_; The other Oz/Gil piece "Sun" is gorgeous - there's something very soft and warm about it, and that touch of humour at the end makes me smile.

I enjoyed all of these so much - your portrayal of Gil in all of them is stunning! ♥

[larouille]

Eeeee, thanks so much! The Ozbert ones were particularly fun to write since I love covering Gilbert's guilt and restraint that just seems to pour off of him sometimes. It's heartbreaking. x_x

Heeey, I follow you on tumblr! I'm the Gilbert rp-er the-avian-grace lol. <3
Thanks so much for the review!
