Thank you! Haha yeah I think I chucked my fair share of pencils too! =)

There's something so desperately vulnerable about Nine that you capture so beautifully here. His brusqueness is a sort of desperation... and that comes across beautifully in this sweet vignette. :)

Thank you! I'm so glad you noticed that - I really wanted that to come across in the fic =D

WOAH! There's, like, three different kinds of brilliant represented here! Great work!

"The square root of a smiley face is itself both a smiley face AND a frowny face. Have to account for the positive and negative values, you see,"

That may be one of my most favorite lines in fanfic ever. LOL

Totally seconded!

I really like this. You made math sound...fun? Which is an accomplishment in and of itself because I generally detest math.

"Math is really about art. It’s a way we can describe the universe as we see it, in a way that makes sense to other people when they look at it. You can use numbers, or smiley faces, or lines, but that’s all it is. Like I said: simple."

I love that line.

Thank you very much! I'm glad it came across in a fun way =D (And the line you pointed out is my favorite one - I'm glad you like it!)
