Recs and Reviews

This fic gives me that butterflies-in-stomach feeling I love so much. I love how it shows the trust grow between them, how they're carefully testing the ground, how it's kind of scary, but also exciting and new, both the sex and the whole relationship thing. How things don't automatically go right immediately, but they work it out. I love their sweetness and their mischievousness, the jokes and banter and the tenderness. Reading this fic feels like falling in love.[2]

Kind of an epic romance covering season one for Bradley and Colin, with reference to the video diaries and other things. Nice use of other characters, and a good, slow build.[3]
