Prosfic - Perfect Alignment

At 0.22 GMT (the lads' time!) the northern hemisphere was tilted as far from the sun as it could be, and so the sun has now set in my tiny part of the Subarctic for 20 hours and 19 minutes straight. Also - it's snowing outside! So for this long, dark, cold night - Prosfic.

I don't know, maybe panic is a good thing--this certainly worked for me! *g* I liked the mix of action/case and emotional/relationship. I liked that it focused on the younger lads, and connected every aspect of their relationship with their partnership. It's intriguing to think that their physical relationship would be so closely tied to their partnership--like the sex was an almost inevitable byproduct of the intensity between them. And then, when the sexual/emotional led to a disconnect, that affected their ability to do the job together. They're still learning what it is between them in this story, and that's fun to read.

I loved the scene at sunset and how they somehow ended up nearly melded together. *g* There was a stillness about them as they stood joined, a quiet, and a *rightness*. Yeah! Thank you!

I've got to admit, I think it'd be quite hard for them to keep the relationship and the job separate, if you write them as really passionate blokes. And considering how often they're off with this or that girl in the show, you've got to think that they're quite fond of sex... But that's the question I guess, too - what makes a good partnership, personal or business, friend or other? How close can you be to someone... Anyway, thank you, I'm glad it worked for you!
