This was so bittersweet. Now obviously, you know my OTP, but I sooo love Felix and Dee interactions. I fit them into Gaeta stories whenever I can. I would really love if Season 4.5 does anything like this, if Felix and Dee can return to being best buddies like they used to be in S1 and S2.

Anyway, about your story: I think one of the things I found really entrancing about your fic was the little details about Felix's situation that you got really spot on - the difficulty he has dealing with pants, the wheelchair discharge because he's still too weak to make such a long walk on crutches, the fact that he's relieved not to hear beeping monitors and smell disinfectant anymore. You often have such a good awareness of the five senses in your fic, something I also really noticed appreciatively in your "Life" fic from a while ago.

I think my absolute favorite line in this is: Nothing had been normal for a long time, though. I can't quite explain why, but it just jumped out and grabbed me.

Great ficlet.
