Oh my god, this made me so HAPPY.

You know, when Pokemon Go got released I actually thought of Matt (of course I did) and couldn't decide whether he'd be one of the crazy masses or if he'd disdainfully look down on the plebes. But of COURSE he'd be one of the crazy masses. OF COURSE HE WOULD.

I love John's POV and all the little moments like "wigglestock" and "...is it gonna be meatloaf" and of course the Halo Incident of 2014. This is so relaxed and free-flowing and comes across as effortless, like the best things you write.

*muah*

LOL really? This one felt so...tossed out there. So I'm really glad to hear the lightness of it was happymaking. Making you happy is always my pleasure my dear. :) xo

It was funny that John's meatloaf had power even to distract Matt from his pockemon-go enthusiasm. Thanks for a cute fic.

Ha thank you, glad you enjoyed my fluffy little story!

There is so much affection in this fic.

Aw thank you. I see these two as very affectionate. :)

Never underestimate the power of a good meatloaf.

Also, this is the second story I've read tonight that did a great job of bringing new technology into an older fandom. Stories like this one keep fandoms fresh and lively.

Very lively...

Mmmmmm. Food.

Thanks! I always used to go to quite an effort to make sure there were no anachronisms technology-wise, like having Matt and Lucy use snapchat right after the events of the movie, which was in 2007 (omg), or anything like that. But recently, I've been feeling like that is very dated, and like you said, not very fresh or lively. :) These guys needed an update. Even if it means being vague about details like timelines or how long they've been together... (it will obviously be forever, so hey, it's all the same!)
