Afskljklzdjkhzkjg!
Banimal wrote my amazing, lovely Medic/Scout fluff!
I’m experiencing an acute need for age-bait emoticons, damn it! THANK YOU! I don’t know why you’d feel sheepish about admitting to being my Secret Santa? I already commented above (and on tumblr, which I now realise you must’ve seen too—oh the embarrassment) on how much I loved your fic. It was perfect to me! I’m so glad you stuck with it and finished it, because the result is everything I could’ve hoped for and more. I realise my request was very open-ended, maybe too much so; I’ll remember that for next time. But you gave me exactly what I wanted and I’m very, very happy!
>Getting two hardened mercenaries with very little in common to act tenderly towards each other is surprisingly challenging.
Haha, yeah, I know! No wonder my Scout always ends up in bad ways, poor guy. It wasn’t an easy pairing either; Medic/Scout is just begging for weird kinks, but it’s my favourite pairing and I’m a total sucker for fluff. And I have to say you pulled it off amazingly. I kept smiling when I read it. And laughing too. I didn’t want to add a huge list of copy-pasted quotes to my post above, but there were so many paragraphs that really stood out to me as excellent. Their dialogues too. And the jokes, which I mentioned. Perfect in every way.
>Fortunately I love writing Scout, so I was able to have fun with it.
I’m really glad to hear that! And there are not too many of us Scout-fans out there, which makes me extra happy you were the one who got my prompt.
>Y U so good?
Y U so good?!
Seriously, though—I think I’ve mentioned this before, so please bear with my silly fangirling—but your fics have been a huge inspiration to me. I read your Muscle Management series and that fantastic Sniper/Scout piece you did, and then TeratoMarty’s In From The Cold, and I thought, this is what I want to write and that’s how I want to write it! And I’ve been trying to since. I still track down your thread here on the ‘chan every so often to read through it again and go ‘...damn it, not there yet.’ Your style, pacing, and dialogue are all just top-notch and the characterisations spot-on, as I’ve said above. So I’ve totally been trying to emulate your writing. There you have it, my embarrassing fandom secret.
Knowing you read and liked my Secret Santa fic too just totally made my day.
tl;dr: Best Christmas gift this year. Thank you!
