OH OH OH OH OH OH OH
There are not sufficient words in ANY language to express to you how much I absolutely positively ADORE this. Best Christmas present EVER. I love every little detail in here <3 I adore your characterizations, and I LOVE how nerdy you made Alfred. All the sci-fi references made my LIFE (I am the biggest nerd ever haha). And it was so absolutely adorable! Poor Arthur, always so frustrated. Not to mention the ART, my goodness! Absolutely gorgeous! And I love love LOVE Alfred's notebook and all his little lists about Arthur-so adorable and funny. And the time turner-great, wonderful <3 I love Harry Potter. Oh, and I haven't even started on the end! You had me completely convinced that Alfred was ACTUALLY trying to build a time machine, haha. Oh Alfred, you sneaky person you. But GAH, SO CUTE <3 ( ... )

OMG I'M SO RELIEVED YOU'RE OKAY WITH IT!!!! I was totally worried it wouldn't be what you were hoping for so.... I don't know. Quantity making up for quality? XD

Ahh and I'm glad all the scifi references weren't like super confusing or anything! I figured since you liked Doctor Who you wanted a lot of references to that so... XD Ahaha and well, Alfred is unrealistic enough to really try and build one you know, so~ Thanks so much and I'm so glad you liked it!! (And of course Merry Christmas!!)

I loved this story. Not only Nerd!Alfred is one of my favourite things but also you have a great sense of how to convey humour. I laughed in several parts of the story, usually with Arthur's exasperation.

You showed the feelings between them in a subtle but compelling way and is love how you used the supporting cast.

The idea of Arthur singing his feelings is extremely hilarious and endearing and so it is Alfred's childish determination.

I really loved this story, I'm definitely adding it to my memories.

Nerd!Alfred is really cute and actually so appropriate considering how into comic book superheroes he is and weird inventions and that sort of thing ♥ (I never really thought about it that much until I had to write this fic and was like yes... that is actually... quite true... to his character. lol)

Oh gosh I was also worried about the singing since it seems to be a bit overdone in fics (but it was one of the prompts) but I'm glad it came out okay! Haha Arthur will forever be exasperated with Alfred.. but it's a fond exasperation, right? Thank you so so much and I'm glad you liked it!!

Hahaha, a very fond exasperation, I think.

This is so, SO beautiful ♥ I can't stop listing all the things I liked about this! The story was so good, I just couldn't bring myself to stop reading. Your Arthur was adorable, and your nerdy Alfred was endearing in his own way. It was also nice to see how both of them liked each other so obviously, yet both of them were oblivious enough for not to notice it. And Alfred's notes and drawings, those were plainly awesome! And the ending was so sweet and satisfying ♥ Oh Alfred, you're such a tease x'D Poor Arthur...

This is such a magnificient piece. You win the internet. xD

Omg thank you so much!!! I was actually really worried that no one would want to finish reading it cause it was so long and stuff. Haha I love how oblivious those two are to each other... or well, maybe not so much oblivious as just in denial (but it's so cute) ♥ And I'm so glad that the ending was satisfying!! I wasn't sure if it should be THAT cheesy, but since it's the holidays, it's sort of okay? Haha and well, as long as the end result was good, I think Arthur is okay with it? XD Thank you so so much!!!
