this was very bittersweet, i loved it

Great story! I enjoyed it!

I love this story. I've read it a couple times and had to remember my id so I could log in. (fail).

I love how he looks after her. How he worries about the bruises, but knows that she's all right and knows just what to say and what not to push. There's so much kindness and initmacy between them, it's just great.

And May and Skye! I love May and Skye so much.

"It's a band-aid on the larger issues at play... Because Coulson knows things are changing between them, have been changing since May stepped foot on the plane, and it's not an evolution he wants to stop" - neither do we!

Wonderful little vignette and another really interesting and original take on May's feelings about Ward and what happened.

I don't think you can do any wrong...

This is lovely! IReally nice touches ofhowuch they care for each other.

Well-written. I loved the poetical finish. You also managed to keep them very in-character, which is hard and you did it seemingly without effort. if you have thought about it, I would love to see a continuation or more of anything Philinda-like from you.

I like that you've only hinted at what they might have. Too many fanfics spell relationships out big, loud, and done. Here you say "might be headed" and "a much bigger conversation that needs to be had." May keeps her feelings inside, as does Coulson (to some degree)-their job requires it. So, in modern vernacular, "they're not so good with teh feels." Again, good job.

Cnalcociusvwkaiqia! This is so precious. You kept them totally in character while managing to melt my heart! Absolutely beautiful! I seriously hope you'll write more Philinda fics because you ROCK at it. Not even exaggerating!

I enjoy reading Philinda fics, but they often are just a little too fast and open to be Phil and Melinda. You, on the other hand, did a wonderful job of conveying the reserved but warm tenderness that is their relationship. This could have been on the show, and I loved it.

This is so good. I like that they take care of each other and are so concerned about what Ward could have done to the rest of the team. Love that Melinda and Skye are getting closer.

Very well done and insightful. I could definitely see this scene happening :)
