So, basically, this is my new favorite Lost fic ever. It's a combo between something I always wanted to write and something I keep requesting. Plus, it's all about Miles and Juliet, who are totally my favorite of that bunch.
Mostly, because who the hell would want a chick who was that into Peter Gabriel anyway? This entire story is made of squee. Seriously. You are SO GOOD with Miles, it's uncanny. This line just sums up my love for Miles and the way you write him. I see him as a player, too! He's so cool and easy-going and I can just see him as the type who gets a lot of ass without being drop-dead gorgeous.
I love all the little sign that he really likes her, and how he tries to forget about it, and then EEEEEEEE! People being forced to share a bed is basically my FAVORITE thing ever! You have no idea. None. :) I clapped when she got into bed with him. Miles and Juliet really do have great chemistry here, but you've done this perfect job of building the perfect unrequited crush scenario. I want it to work because I want Miles to have whatever he wants, but at the same time, the dynamic they have really isn't romantic at all on her side. She really does think of him as the DUckie, and strangely the more she gets to know him (like the conversation in the bed), the more that seems to be true for her. That happens in real life; the more you get to know someone and like them as a person, the less of a crush you'll ever have on them. I love when characters in fic act in those kinds of complicated, real-life emotional ways, so I am totally applauding you here for that!!
I like the idea of Sawyer going on benders. He IS a fucking idiot for being hung up on Kate when there are awesome women like Juliet around. Thank goodness he came to his senses, but at the expense of my baby, Miles.
This story is totally fantastic. Had me laughing and then going, "awww, poor baby" all at the same time.
“Dan, I swear if you say whatever happens, happens to me one more time I will kick your ass,” That's my other favorite line. :)
