Thank you, Moonlighter and Alle.
I think in Moonlight, even more than other shows and with Josef and Mick in particular, the mannerisms are integral to the characters. Those little motions tell so much about them and make them ever so much more endearing. In writing, for me, it makes you feel closer to the character to recognize these little habits. So I really, REALLY appreciate that you feel the same.

Re: An Unexpected Gift (Rated G)
This was such a nice surprise, here I thought it was just posted but it was from last year. I could so picture the happiness on Mick's face and just feel the joy that he was expressing to his friend/brother that yes Beth does love him, something he would never think possible after Coraline turned him into a vampire was possible.
Bravo GA this was just wonderful.

Re: An Unexpected Gift (Rated G)
Absolutely lovely, short but perfect.
A little piece so powerful, we're all so happy for Mick, but maybe Josef is the happier, even if his brother's joy is reminding him of what he has lost, what it could have been.

Re: An Unexpected Gift (Rated G)
Guardian Angel you brought happy tears in my eyes reading this...finally, he can accept himself through Beth's loving eyes..and sharing his joy with the only man who really understands the feeling...well, some of the tears are for Josef, for what could have been....

Re: An Unexpected Gift (Rated G)
How many times have I read this gem?
Lots, but it doesn't suffer from frequent reads in the least!!! What a wonderful gift you have for being able to capture the magic and romance and bring it to us anew and fresh with each reread!
I think you are incapible of writing a fic that is not fabulous. Mick finally recognizes what we have known all along...
Thank you.

Re: An Unexpected Gift (Rated G)
I'm enjoying some of the older challenges. It's so wonderful that Mick is so happy here. I feel a twinge for Sarah and Josef but I'm thrilled for Mick
