Dude, I was all set to make this your fic, I even had the dedication in there, and then I was like, 'no, lemme see what she wants. I won't go and pawn it off on her when she may not like it.'

If you *had* made this my birthday fic I would have been thrilled to my toes; as it is, I got two for the price of one. And the second one...oh look! I found my pronouns! I'll save the comments on the X2 fic for over there.

*This story feels familiar, have I told you this like 50 times already? My memory isn't so good anymore, damn youth.*

Er, no, you haven't told me that at all. But I know how you feel. Ah, to be 26 again. Or not.
