It's been a while since a Bandom story touched me so deeply on an emotional level. My heart clenched with Pete's the whole time. His angst is done so beautifully, and it's so great to see how he tries to act reasonably but still uses faulty logic. Your Alcia is very alluring, and I like how you make the essence of Mikey and Pete's relationship that they can easily make each other happy and that they just revel in each other's company. I just love this story, plain and simple.
