i love through-chat fics therefore i am so in love with this!!!!!! your everyday "wrong number” trope but so so so much better!!! cute and happy[4]
This fic is ridiculously popular, and with good reason. Scenario: wrong-number fic, done so, so right. Long-fic, slow burn, Pidge and Hunk are there for way more than moral support… The most important relationship is obviously Klance, but the author makes sure to develop the friendship between Pidge and Keith and Hunk and Lance. It also has smart Lance, which is just so God Trucking Bless. Incredibly worth it.[5]
Okay. So. This one. THIS ONE FIC. Honestly, I keep describe it the same way over and over. This fic is like a hot chocolate mug with marshmallow on a cold day. I’m not even kidding. If THIS don’t make you smile, laugh and feel like life may worth it after all, I don’t know what else will do.[6]
