Wow. Wyatt seems destined to be using his teeth on Lucy's clothes. I'm sure he's oh so upset. And Rufus really helped break the tension. Wyatt withdrawing because he's unsure seems realistic. Poor Lucy. But she sure tells him off. Mason walking in on them is hilarious. His response about not dirtying up the Lifeboat was hilarious. I can imagine him saying that.

Oh, Wyatt, I need you to get your ish together and just be with Lucy. Because gosh you're both adorable. This fic was amazing as always. I love how unashamed he was when Mason walked in. That was perfect! haha.

Ugh... can they be any more perfect! Love it! I always try to leave more of a review but sometimes there are no words to describe just how much I enjoy these stories. Great job!

Well, I found it quite original and quite enjoyable at hay! I love reading your timeless work. It's pretty incredible!

Making out in the Lifeboat...I hadn't even considered that before...how is it that I *hadn't* thought about that before!? Really great stuff! Wyatt "protecting" her by being distant and closed off sadly does seem rather consistent with his character...but I'm glad he came around!
thanks for this!

oh nice! they sure belong with each other

It is 220 am i am wide awake and smiling. This was fantastic. I live they way you captured them. Bravo.

So good! :) Love their banter at the end. Some of the beginning descriptions were confusing, but their chemistry made up for it. I can't get enough Lucy-Wyatt fic lately! Keep it up! :D

Please continue this cheese. I'm curious about Lucy's ideas as well.

Ahhhhhhhhh! *fans self frantically* This was everything I didn't know I needed. The angst was so perfect. Rufus's lines were amazing and so perfect for him. I kept expecting him to be the one to catch them in the Lifeboat, but Connor Mason was even better!

"Crippling bouts of self-inflicted uncertainty is kind of my specialty." Oh hey there, Lucy - didn't realize we were the same person.

But anyway... kinky lifeboat fantasies, lol. I've often wondered if they could swing the making out, or more, in the lifeboat once they get together on the show. Lol again at staining the interior :D

Now, this was a lovely story and all, but if Wyatt pulls this closed-off crap next season, I'll need to kick him. Hard.

Next fic soon? Pretty please?

*large smile on my face and profoundly excited and pleased slow clap* nice work :)

I'm now late for work but I don't care because reading this was worth it.

guuuh so so good. *hearteyes*

Yay! You wrote a new fic! Had to read it twice before I could even review. Have to tell you that I honestly laughed out loud at Rufus saying "...like you want to eat each other's faces..." I think I actually scared my dog, ha this was a great idea. Keep 'em coming...

Such a wonderful set of scenes. Love how Wyatt makes this choice to try to cut feelings off, just like he shrugs off pain, and tries to power through everything. And of course this would infuriate and confuse Lucy. They are so perfect. Thanks for another amazing story! Sorry it's just a one shot. Kinda love to see how these two would deal with the tensions on the job.
