Damn why are you making me comment on dw where I have no account? How can I possibly manage to enact my devious plan to make you my best friend for ever and ever this way? Oh well, guess I'll just have to flail about your brilliance for a while instead.

Because you are, you know. Brilliant. Otherwise how could you put together a combination like that and make it ring so true? And it does. Ian seems so perfectly, utterly himself it just makes me so damn happy and and and. And obviously, I'm a little incoherent. I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that something Mere recced, something you're blaming her for, would be so perfectly what I wanted to read, but I have to admit, I was a little surprised by how happy this made me. Thanks for sharing!
