I have to say that this is one of my all-time favorite stories, maybe my favorite Daken story. It's so sweet but not at all sentimental, and I really admire the economy of your writing. You manage to impart so much depth without getting bogged down in details (something I find difficult to resist myself), and I really love the little details you do include--like Daken's awareness that the situation is making him "soft" because he hasn't unearthed Emma's past, or the observation that Daken and Victor probably have the same amount of "experience" despite their age difference. And I love the scene with Logan! You--or someone--needs to write a fic where they DO go and have that beer. Fic based on fic based on fic. Who could resist that?
