It only took a Vulcan and a puppy.

I really like this; the way they reconnect. I like Tuvok’s intervention - could just picture it. Great story!

Someone in the Voyager book club rec'ed this story for a "most romantic fic" thread for Valentine's Day, and my golly what a fantastic tale it turned out to be. I should have been working but just couldn't stop reading! Beautiful use of language and ideas, and a wonderful journey back to friendship and ultimately love for them. A wonderful setting, too. I really appreciated the little dog! A great story!

Utterly beautiful mesmerising writing

d'awwwwwww 333! You are such a good writer, and capture the characters perfectly. Thank you for this!

Lovely fic. Nicely done!

This is one of your very best stories. It captures all the nuances of their relationship beautifully and is a fitting tribute to the evocative portrayals that Kate Mulgrew and Robert Beltran give us on screen.

Exceptionally well crafted. Thank you for sharing your perceptions with us.

Dear Northernexposure,
That was beautiful. I loved it. I loved the slow, sweet tone. I loved that you included Tuvok and B'Elanna, but in a small role. I adored the jotling. Thank you for sharing this with me.

I love this so much! You are an amazing author . I can’t tell you how much I adore how you write. Your characterizations feel so real. I can’t even pick a favorite part. It was all too good. I feel like I’m gushing. I’m too overwhelmed to even make sense. ( Incoherent squealing). Please just write more j/c :-). Please!

Hello there, I hadn't realized I'd never finished that story, so I had the pleasure of reading it again. It's perfect, thank you. If you ever feel like a sequel...

Wooow, just woow, I coudn't stop reading, that story ist amazing

This is f-ing brilliant. I've been reading Voyager fic for... 16 years now, and this is really tops. It has a deep, rich reality to it, and the longing is palpable. The post-Equinox timeline is so interesting, and you beautifully draft the tentative reaching out, the repair, the rediscovery. Excellent work.

Wow I am so glad I clicked in this fic tonight! What a rollercoaster of emotion. You really nailed both their characters, and it was very, very believable. And Tuvok... where to even begin. That Vulcan is such a meddler. ;)

The scene where he kisses her and she's drunk... argh. Brilliance.

Amazing job. Thank you for sharing.

"And then there was no distance between then at all." I'm ugly sobbing too hard to put into words how much I adore this story. Just... Please accept this bucket of my tears and know that I would write a PhD thesis on your writing if I were capable of doing so. Brilliant. Utterly gorgeous. Pure evocative poetry. Thank you for writing this and for making my day so, so, so much better.

"This was you," she said, her voice rough. "This was YOU."

THANKS A LOT FOR MAKING ME BURST INTO TEARS AGAIN BECAUSE I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING MORE PAINFUL AND POIGNANT AND HEARTBREAKING AND BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT THAN THIS.
