That was very a fun read. Andrew writing Xander Klingon love poetry, it's touches like that that that put this couple on my Xander radar. :)

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

(Also, can I just say how APPROPRIATE your icon is? \o/ GO HABS!)

No one's ever written me any either. :(

Awww, this is so cute and fun!! I really loved how the strain of the travels totally showed in Xander's snappiness with Andrew - which is exactly how I think Xander would react with Andrew. I like how you used Montreal!

This is a very fun, Xandery train of thought:
Xander might even, maybe, be starting to like Andrew. More than like. No that he'd admit it under the treat of torture. Well, okay, maybe if torture was involved.
You've got a couple of typos in this sentence "No that he'd admit it under the treat of torture." I assume that "No" should be "Not" and "treat" should be "threat" (cause that's a whole other meaning! ;) )

All the stuttering, blushing and the Klingon love poetry was so adorable! I adored this:
"I--uh, it's nothing, I don't--" Andrew gulped loud enough for Xander to hear, and looked up from beneath his lashes. The blush had spread up to his ears and Xander couldn't look away ( ... )

Heee! Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the fic. \o/ That really is the perfect icon. *squishes Andrew* Montreal was the first city that came to mind after I got my assignment, and I asked my darling girl, and she said I could definitely be a dork and use my city in the background. I love writing about places I know. *g* And the idea of these two here just makes me happy.

Also thanks for spotting the typos. Fixed now!

This is so much fun! Xander was so incredibly believable in this: exhausted and short-tempered and awkward. And I loved that he was genuinely attracted to Andrew and liked him; it wasn't just some "we're stuck together, so we might as well hook-up" thing. I know the concept for the Klingon love poetry came from the prompt, but you incorporated it beautifully. It was so appropriate and funny!

Thanks so much for sharing!

Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :) Somehow, I don't see Xander hooking up with *Andrew* just because they're stuck together--I've seen it done, and done well, though, so maybe it's just my brain. ;) Heh. I like the idea that what Xander finds annoying about Andrew at first is really what makes him be attracted to him later on.
