Oh, that was so, so good. ♥ This is the first time I've read this pairing -- haven't read much X-Men fic, all in all -- and I think I may just have to read more if there's other stuff out there as wonderful as this is.

I loved the way you summed everything up in so few words. I'd love to see more, sure, but this is lovely and complete on its own. And it is perfectly characterised and it hurts, in a good way.
