This was brilliant. Sensual, erotic, heart-wrenching and everything that I adore about vulcan romance. Kudos to you!

Ah, it’s obvious this isn’t about BDSM. That’s not what’s driving Amanda, not the flavor she’s after. But it’s damn cute that there are people who conflate them! (Oh she wants it hard... must be that leather and spanking stuff I saw on the tele!) xD

Hair! He touched her hair! Right there on her head next to her ear! SMUT! SMUTTY LITERATURE!

How sweet, a not-a-date that ended with (oooo) touching fingers and (oooo) an exchange of words. With staring. Scandalous! Delicious! I hope nobody else has forgotten that Amanda needs impaling. I sure haven’t.

Very enjoyable.

This is a fantastic story! Thanks for writing it!

The story plot was great with Amanda working in the school and the bomb was really traumatic. Are you planning another part how they live on vulcan? Learning how to deal with Sybok?

loved this story! are you going to do any more Amanda and Sarek stories cause I would so read them if you do!

lovely...just lovely!

Knowing your write Doctor Who, I had to chuckle at Sarek's comment that Amanda had accessed 'entertainment tapes from the Nothern region'. Immedately I thought "Lots of planets have a north!" :)

Love!

I saw the first sentence and thought, "Oh, it's going to be a PWP," and I don't really care for those. Glad I kept reading because this was an excellent story.

Yes, at first I wanted more, but you are right. Thanks for sharing. xo

I'm loving this so far. I've read a lot of Sarek/Amanda fanfic, and tons of origin stories, but never the rom-com "How Sarek Met Amanda" version.

Truthfully, I've never thought I'd like something like that, but you've got great pacing, the emotional interchange totally works, and your Amanda is a BAMF.

Wow, really don't know what to say, there's shivers going down my spine as I read this chapter. Yes, you did it justice... the power of the imagery is incredible and so unexpected in a story that began by describing a horny school teacher. This isn't the piece of fluff it looked like and I suspect that the image is going to stay with me for some time. Thank you for this story.

I love your Sarek/Amanda fics! It was especially interesting to see how the characterizations of both characters, and Sybok, too, changed in this fic versus "Allocations." I was surprised that I really liked both works considering the changes, but hey, when you have such a good writer, you get sucked into the story. :)

I'll be reading some of your HP fics, next!
