This was so great, bb!! Loved. Seriously loved. Jess's guilt during the scene in the car? GUH!! So nice and angsty. Loved this so much!!

Of COURSE you need to keep writing Jesker. Because you are awesome at it!

Aww, thanks! I used to write fic all the time but it's literally been a couple of years so I was pretty nervous to give it a go. Of course you know I couldn't resist the pull of Becker/Jess lol, so I did my best. I love angst/humor/fluff combinations! :p I have a few other ideas for them that I'm planning to start now, just hope it doesn't take as long to finish as this one did.

Lovely fic and interesting rework of the ep to swap them around.

Thank you! It was an idea that just popped into my head after watching the episode

First off, I love that Placebo song! I used it for a fic a while back (different fandom, though). The lyrics are just so haunting.

I literally just discovered Primeval a few weeks ago, but I'm in love, and I've been hungry for some good fic. This was great! You really got Jess' voice down, and I like how you showed Becker's struggle-- he's attracted and wants to be close to her, but he knows what could happen if he lets that guard down.

Great job! I hope you write some more soon!

Thank you! I'm being distracted by how adorable your icon is...sigh, ok now that I'm out of my andrew induced coma lol.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I was really nervous to post but everyone has been super nice.

This was quite nice :) I really like that you addressed Jess' guilt about the girl - I was disappointed that it wasn't actually addressed on the show - and the scene at the end was very cute!

Your characterization of Jess and Becker was well done and I do hope that you continue writing this pairing - there is a sad lack of Jesker fic out there!

[pink_flame_87]

Thank you! I wished Jess had showed her guilt more in the show too. My theory is she didn't want Becker to see her that way, who knows.

There is a sad lack of fic for them. Maybe it's because their name is "Jesker" lol. I'm trying to get behind it but it doesn't strike me as catchy lol.

[erisinwinter]

It really isn't all that catchy, lol! That's an interesting theory about the show - I never thought of it that way :)

awww so cute. Jess will make Becker all better :)

[pink_flame_87]

Thanks! I agree!
