So I was saving this as a reward for finishing something I haven't yet finished, so nevermind that. But it kept teasing me from the corner of my browser so I decided to let myself read it anyway, and am I glad I did. It's just so wonderfully, refreshingly grown-up, and Noel sounds delicious from McCoy's POV. (Plus, flirting with Jim to piss him off is *sheer genius*.)
