I really really love fic from this era, with the apartment and the uncertainties, and some degree of nervousness. They were so young, then, and this is kind of exactly how I picture things happening. Any sort of spiritual crisis hits me oddly, and so does the whole family-tension thing, because I've done both, and man. The humanity!! The confusion!! The quiet angsting that is settled in small increments by gentle affection and gentler words. I don't even know. I love how you write, and I love how they are, here, and I just love, in general. I could probably ramble at you about this for days but I'll spare you and say that I cannot wait for the longer fic to be done and even though it's not my story to be possessive over, you're the only one I'd trust to get it right, because I know you just get things, in very admirable, lovely, and occasionally heart-hurting ways.

So many hearts and kidneys and other such things that are in me and in love with you.

Yesyes!! I'm obsessed with the band's Early Days, as it were. I aim for understanding, I'm glad I arrive there every now and again :)

Love, love, precious.

lajfals.

[theaerosolkid]

Ahaha, thanks?

[self_sustaining]

Ahaha well what I meant was I really, really liked it.

[rock_my_town]

that was pretty much the perfect amount of cuteness. I really love this!

[theaerosolkid]

Cuteness ftw!! \o/

[fauxaffliction4]

this was really cute.
and extremely well written.
I loved how they could communicate without ever finishing a sentence.
Really, really adored it.
And it was still nice, even after Brend started being a prude, kinda.

Thanks :)

I don't really see Brendon as being a prude per se...more acknowledging the fact that he grew up in a very conservative, restrictive household and that it's therefore unlikely (no matter how strongly he feels for/is attracted to Ryan) that he'd be willing and eager to jump right into the assfuckery. Know what I mean?

Oh, gargh, this is just so good; I love how they're so... in tune with each other, that there's not really the need to finish sentences. And the last sentence is just so - nyrgh. Fabulous. ♥

[theaerosolkid]

Nyrgh is what I aim for. Seriously, though, I always try to end my fics with good parting lines, I'm glad I succeeded here. :)
