My Comments/Thoughts: It's a long one folks! Get ready to be fed WELL 🍿

Starts off with the typical 'You owe me a drink' break in filled with great dialogue.

Yelena not wanting to get close to Kate but can't help but want to protect her and her with her>>

Texting buddies?!?! (more than buddies actually)

WORKING OUT BUDDIES?! (ogling much you two?)

BUTT LACE!!

I really do adore when authors write Yelena and Sonya's friendship. These two are so special to me. Their bond is so special to me.

THEIR FIRST 'NON-DATE' got me screaming crying sobbing kicking my feet

In trouble? Call Yelena because OVERPROTECTIVE GF

ALEXEI !!! His entrance to this story is actually so iconic. 

MELINA'S SUPPORT ON KATELENA !!

chapter 13 <33

chapter 14 <333

The way the writer inserts Jennifer Walters and the way she breaks the fourth wall to talk to the readers is fucking brilliant and HILARIOUS

alexei and kate's relationship do be adorable

yelena and jen's is even more adorable

the reference from 'a good person' !!! and the haircut for it!

The entrance of the bugs!!! Something about the the way this author introduces new characters in this is so fun and I'm a fan

I had an epiphany while reading this. I realized this story doesn't develop and contain much of a relationship between Kate and Clint. It's mentioned but Clint is not much in it compared to unlikely characters that have been inserted into this story. Do I mind it? Not at all. I love Clint, but it was so nice to get to read the relationships that did develop in this one. Especially Yelena and Jen.

This story has fulfilled so many self-indulgent relationships and headcanons, I have been fed and I can't thank this author enough for an incredible story.

Author said there may be a second part to this AND I AM HERE FOR IT! I shall be here patiently waiting ahhh I'm so excited!!!

Last and final words: engagement vest.

This week has been chaotically busy so it was an absolute reward to be able to sit back and relax after a long day to read this one :)
