I love Booth/Hodgins friendship fic - even when Booth doesn't want to admit they're friends.

This was great - a drunk Hodgins is the best.

Thanks for sharing!

Thank you my friend. I had so much fun trying to picture what a drunk Hodgins would be like!

Booth doesn't want to admit they're friends. Booth/Hodgins are hilarious to watch on the show (I wish there was be more!) so of course I had to try and write it.

Is there a note with a map to his place on a notice board somewhere in the Jeffersonian encouraging people to head there after a difficult day? If there is he is sure it has a big "x" marking his liquor cabinet.

HA! This set up the fic beautifully. These thoughts are so Booth-like.

Very Funny. :)

Thank you :)

Glad you think the line in the opening paragraph worked and that it's something Booth would think.

I LOVE your fics, Limone! Haven't seen you anywhere for too too long.

This was pure grinner. You are SO good with both Booth's and Hodgins's voices, the whole deal.

One of my favorite show scenes is Booth talking to Hodgins about Cam's sister kissing him. They are both so funny and that much funnier playing off each other.

More! More!

You are too kind. *blushes*

Yes, it's too long since I wrote anything. (Multichapter in the making if I can get my act together!)

It means more than I can tell you that you think I got Booth and Hodgins right, those to are difficult to write (at least I think so.)

I love this line: "Dealing with squints requires that you're sober. Or possibly a lot more drunk." HAHAHAA So funny

[limone1]

Don't ask me how I came up with the two options, sober or a lot drunk, but somehow it makes sense that sober or a lot drunk would work better than being slightly tipsy in certain situations ;)

You're absolutely right, Daley is a very good actor, but it's not realistic how all of a sudden there is a need for a psychologist to be on hand at all times. It's almost as if they try to squeeze in Sweets sometimes. E.g. Why do Booth suddenly need Sweets' input when interrogating suspects? He was doing fine on his own before. How well you put it when you point out that the writers should have the characters have real moments between each other instead.

Thrilled you think Booth's voice feels right. That's the best compliment I could hope for! He and Hodgins are not characters I find it easy to write. Also thrilled you think this is different for the norm - I'll take that as a compliment too :)

Very OK to point out typos, I'm the worst typist ever!

Thank you for your kind and well devised words.

Thank you ♥

Your comment about stalking made me lol :D

You don't know how happy I am that you think the Booth/Hodgins friendship worked in this. I find those two, especially Hodgins, tricky to write. That's the reason I forced myself to respond to this prompt, I wanted to see if I could do it.

[limone1]

You made my day :)

I suppose I should be worried that I find that Zack writes himself and Brennan does not take that much effort ;)
