Thank you very much for coming back to read and leave such a lovely review!
The idea of the birthdays came from a prompt Tater gave me: cake, and it seemed like a good way to use the different birthdays to chart the progression of the relationship, and I wanted, for some reason, to do something a little angsty at the beginning. It's really great to hear that you thought that all fitted in with their characters and found it a believable scenario.
And also that there was UST! As that's what I was trying to do, but it's quite difficult, I think, to read your own work and know if you've pulled it off, since you know how things are going to turn out.
It always makes me smile like crazy when you pick lines out, so thanks for that. It's nice to know you enjoy that in my fics.
