i actually read this whole thing late last night off the vs thread link you gave me. i actually fell asleep in front of the computer a couple times but i wanted to finish. so i staggered off to bed and figured, 'well, i'll leave f/b in the morning' and look how many people beat me to it!

this story is just another testiment to your excellent writing skills. god, i love it already, everything from the semi non-con in the first chapter, to the 'figuring it out' part, to sean's asking for his mark to be renewed. you tread a fine path between stubborn!sean and giving!sean and i'm really into it, both for sean's inner monologues and the dynamic between him and viggo. i was glad for viggo's sake that he'd already half wanted it anyway.
