This just keeps getting better. I enjoy Wufei in this chapter, because you can see that he's wearing thin at the seams, too, and starting to unravel. His binge with Heero was well written and believable. It's always funny to me to see him in my mind's eye with his hair down, since i always think of him as being buttoned up so tight.

I only just started noticing that you change the story summary each chapter. Clever. I'm really liking this story. Thanks for updating again and keeping the awesome imagery and metaphors coming.

*chuckle* Thanks for the cameo. This chapter didn't disappoint. Naming the dog and Wufei getting punched in the chops was the high point of my day. And Une's bad ass. Loved her.

I like the buildup of tension between them again and how restless they are despite the weird effort to be more domesticated in their surroundings. I also love how Duo seemed not to want to compromise with Heero on anything in this installment, and you see that again with their sparring. It's like he doesn't want Heero to wear him down in any way.

Thanks for updating. I always look forward to this one.

I thought about this fic yesterday; the line "an absurd amount of cheese" popped into my head, and Heero's estimation that Duo's eggs tasted like cheese with the texture of scrambled eggs.

I loved this chapter. I love all of them, anyway, but this was so much fun to read. "We're nesting." Duo tickled me. It makes you happy to see him trying to let Heero in, to an extent. I love their dinner conversation and their new dog and neighbor.

I always enjoy your language usage and very tangible metaphors and visuals. Keep it coming. I'm jealous.

Waiting patiently for you my dear~~~~~~~~

"That's why you only give me scraps, isn't it? You think that if I get too close, I'll see how ugly you are and leave." That floored me. How perfect is it that Heero summed up Duo's hangups so neatly? At that point, we, the reader, want to see Heero put Duo's frustration to rest and to see what he'll do to accomplish that. And yeah, jumping his bones on the pile of clothes on the floor pretty much fit the bill. But best line of all? "Fine, but I want a dog." That was priceless. I'm loving this fic.

lol, that was great, i was laughing so hard when i read this. I am a bit sad that duo is being so negative, hope he gets better after "meeting" WuFei. :D please keep up the good work, i look forward to your next update!

It's challenging to find a GW 1x2 fic these days that actually has a plot. I absolutely love your development of both Duo and Heero, and can't wait for future chapters. You have great writing talent, please keep it up!

~MM

I'm gonna cry if this doesn't go through AGAIN. *fifth time trying to review*

So uhm. By now I've kinda forgotten what I've written a million times before, let alone what you wrote in the chapter...
all I remember is thinking d'awww, Heero's kind of a sap, and boooo on Duo for being the heartless one. LOL kinda weird how that turned out eh? I think so. Mmhmmm.

I'm gonna end it there because my ADD is kicking in and the sun is shining. :D
Looking forward to more!

I appreciate the appreciation!

This chapter moved me, much like the last four, because Duo is so hard and so vulnerable at the same time. More cat and mouse, which I love, and his tendency to drive Heero a little nuts with worrying about him, right before flirting with him, like that little lip-bite he gave him. Heero removing the tarps from the windows and letting in the glare seemed like foreshadowing to me (I'm an English major, I LOVE foreshadowing), where he was exposing them to the light of day so they could come out of hiding. I can't wait to see what happens next between these two.

All of the details were perfect. The eating scenes in this story are as much fun as everything else; I'm still laughing about "an absurd amount of cheese." I was excited for a moment, because it looked like you had uploaded four chapters, but it was perhaps the fifth, more than once? Either way, please continue!

It's so easy to get lost in this story. Duo is such a study in contrasts, snide one moment, lost the next. Poor guy. It's so interesting to see Heero playing cat and mouse with him, too, wanting to help him but not wanting to step on his toes. Yet he won't let Duo ignore him. THis is excellent writing. More, please.
