MrsScruffyNerfherder chapter 1 . 11/7/2017 Awwwwwww! |
argellastarkiller chapter 1 . 7/24/2017 this is really sweetgorgeously written and portrayed, as always. |
OtterAndTerrier chapter 1 . 7/3/2017 Sorry that I took such a long time to review this! But... it gave me a good excuse to re-read it! As always, I love how you two portray their physical intimacy along with the emotional part, making this anything but hollow smut. Loved how Han upgraded the Falcon just to get home sooner, and how palpably they bask in their happiness together. Great story! |
StatsGrandma57 chapter 1 . 6/25/2017 This is so gorgeous! Hot, gentle, sweet, spicy, it's all there! Now, as always, when you two get together, I need a cold shower and a bucket of ice! |
lilacmermaid33 chapter 1 . 6/21/2017 Lovely job with this! |
KnightedRogue chapter 1 . 6/9/2017 I can't believe I haven't reviewed this yet. It is spectacular, just the happiest height of good fluffy-smut, all bound up in love and honest care for the other. I lovelovelove that Han cranked the Falcon's engines to get home to Leia faster than he'd originally planned, and I love that Leia just falls into a happy euphoria after their little sexual interlude is done. I LOVE THAT. I love that Leia gets a rush after the act itself, that she knows how much she is revered and adored by Han in those moments. I also love how you guys wrapped it up, that your fic funnels down to Han making fun of Chewie for missing Malla and Leia reprimanding him for it. It's a beautiful little addition at the end to give us relationship context - this isn't just smut, it's a league ahead, because we can figure out through the story itself where the relationship stands. Gorgeous work, as always. Just superb! |
Ravens23Princess chapter 1 . 5/25/2017 So cute and lovely! Wonderful job as always! |
Lils chapter 1 . 5/21/2017 This was so sweet! I love it. |
JustAFlick chapter 1 . 5/23/2017 There's nothing better than imagining Han Solo cuddling up to you like a kitten and then f***ing your brains out. Lol. This was like a decadent chocolate dessert, luscious and captivating...followed by a nice cup of coffee aka the conversation about how committed he is to Leia. Pretty much living the dream, Princess! I appreciated how detailed the smut was without being vulgar. I often get impatient (in life and in fiction?) and want to skip to the finale, but you guys took it nice and slow. Thanks for this sweet treat! |
Jedi of Grace chapter 1 . 5/23/2017 "What's your hurry, Princess?" What wonderful words to hear. I love Leia's musings on Han and the little details of life with him. How she has to force herself not to think of him... I love that Han raced home to see her. It sounds like youthful exuberance but Han isn't terribly youthful here, so it just makes it sweet. And oh, the end... Chewbacca... loveliness all over the place. |
jeanmarie3 chapter 1 . 5/22/2017 I absolutely adored this fic **squee** Your writing is so richly descriptive and just beautiful!~ thank you for sharing your wonderful talents with us :) Ox |
Zyra M chapter 1 . 5/22/2017 I really enjoyed so much of this. Really any Han and Leia reuniting and being happy to see each other is always good. But this was an especially good reunion. Aside from the obvious reasons, one of my favorite things about it was Leia's mention of just feeling so loved when Han was there. Very touching and I think very accurate. I also had to laugh when Han thought she was insulting the duration of his performance, haha. And then I really liked the way you brought it around at the end where Han used to make fun of Chewie and not get why it was a big deal for him to be away from his wife. And now he totally gets it. So sweet and I'm sure so true. Loved it! |
Sofie.C chapter 1 . 5/22/2017 Somewhere on tumblr I have read justinegraham and erindarroch are well known as the "Smut Girls". Well yes, with this story you have certainly lived up to this name, but to me "Smut Girls" does not fully represent your amazing ability to embed fluffy, sexy and highly enjoyable smut into a well composed background story. A background story which always involves Han and Leia at their best and which makes it plain and absolutely obvious these two are deeply and madly in love with each other. There is so much adoration and devotion transpiring in your work, which never fails to make me FEEL their love. This is no exception: Han asking everything from his ship to get home to Leia, because he cannot wait to get home to her (!), Leia being delighted to have him home earlier and also having had her schedule cleared in order to spent some real "quality" time with her husband (a gesture which matches Hans ruthless getting the Falcon to new speed records), the passionate, yet tender lovemaking, the little misunderstanding about "a new speed record" with Leia being sensitive and loving enough to throw in "another aspect of his ego for good measure (because that is what lovers do from time to time), the morning after and the wonderful reference to Chewie and Hans admission, he is only now (since he has Leia) able to fully comprehend Chewies yearning for Malla. It is fun to imagine, two big saps, one slightly bigger and much more hairy than the other running around the galaxy while they are getting into bad moods, because they are missing their wives. Two big softies - but i guess we have known this, ever since we have seen Han ruffling Chewies hair in ANH, while they were leaving the Falcons smuggling compartments on the Death Star. Besides the highly enjoyable subject matter of this story, there is also your absolutely wonderful choice of language. It is stressing and highlighting the general tune of romantic and meaningful smuttiness of this story perfectly well. Lines like "... Leia sent out a probing tendril through the Force, and the unique and distinctive masculine presence that flowed back to her - deeply, weary, but calm, peaceful and happy - was unmistakable," and "The bright morning sun poured through the bedroom window, casting a diffuse glow over Leias pillow. The golden light penetrated through her closed eyelids ..." are giving evidence of your stunning ability to create a certain atmosphere just when it is needed. Also your writing style gives evidence, you are not only mastering the art of creating meaningful and romantic smut, you are also masters in handling and setting up language in all its aspects and shades in the best possible way. In short: You once more have given us an absolutely delightful story, which has been a real pleasure to read. Thank you for sharing! P.S. You know, sometimes I think, it would be great fun to listen to (read) your conversations while you are mapping out a story, especially certain scenes. |
addyfox chapter 1 . 5/22/2017 Ahhhh. Really lovely. Going to spend the rest of the day imagining a sleepy Han ;) Always look fowards to seeing your fics as they hit the right note every time. Thank you! |
CorellianAngel chapter 1 . 5/22/2017 Oh what a lovely story. The slow, sweet crawl into bed , and smut is oh so beautifully rendered. I dunno, what it is...but you gals just keep getting better and more beautiful in these tender scenes. Aaaand, Leia's use of the force to enhance her bond!? Never used enough if SW fics. Very well presented here. Though I admit I'd like to see Leia link in further. Also, I adore Han's admission of how he misses Leia via his story about Chewie missing Malla. Awwww! Thanks so so much for sharing |
