Fic: Maps Won't Show Us Where We're Going

[traincat]

Happy birthday, measuringlife! Belated birthday, anyway. I started writing this on your birthday, so it counts.

I told her I was writing Ike/Soren and makeouts! There was much "8D"-ing. Then she asked me to actually post it publicly.

It is her birthday, and I cannot refuse her.

You know what I like most about this? That the making out is awkward LIKE IT SHOULD BE. And it's awesome. And the exchange between Nailah and Rafiel is win. And--

Boyd can help the little old ladies across the road. The road farthest from my sister.

XDDDDDDDD

I just really like the last scene, and the last conversation, a lot. <3

Also: long hair~~~

Sorry this is so incoherent. It's late.

Late reply is laaaaate but! This comment is so nice; it makes me smile. I'm glad you liked the awkward making out (which is TOTALLY how it should be) and the Nailah/Rafiel bit and the last conversation because those are pretty much my favorite parts too.

♥ Thank you!

This is so cuuuuuuuuuuuuute. ♥ I love fics where they're all awkwardly adorable together. You shouldn't feel bad about posting it at all; it's awesome. :D

[traincat]

So this is a very late reply, but! Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed!

I don't even ship it, but that was irresistible. xD (Well, uh... I don't not ship it, either, I'm just not so far into PoR/RD.) The desert analogy, it wins. 83

Also. I second what Myaru said about the making out. |D;; Hee~

[traincat]

(How far have you got? 8D; I, uh, didn't spoil anything for you, did I?) Ff, that analogy. I had fun with it. Ike is not a very romantic guy.

Awkward making out is way more fun to write than ~perfect~ making out. And it's not like either of them would have much experience with it anyway.

I'm glad you liked, Seri~.

Aww. 8D I like little bits here and there, like the allusions to Yune and Titania going after Boyd and Mist. Incidentally, the style itself is reminiscent of measuringlife's writing.

[measuringlife]

that's because we're secret brain twins! OR SOMETHING.

[traincat]

We've got the hivemind going.

Oh hello! Adorable fic for my birthday, get! HI AMMY I LOVE YOU AND YOUR ADORABLE FIC AND WILL DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO GET YOU TO POST MORE. EVERYTHING.

Seriously. Spot on characterization! Laguz puns! Cute makeouts! Adorableness! Did I mention that? Because I feel the need to mention this ~flutter of happiness~ inside~~

[traincat]

HI VERY LATE REPLY but I'm so glad you liked it! I included the laguz puns just for you, you know. Okay no it's more that I have a problem with puns in the first place but I KNEW YOU WOULD ENJOY THEM so the thought, it counts.
