I still haven't seen the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. show, so I hope this doesn't go against any canon in there. And I hope that you like it! I strayed a bit from the prompt, but I hope it's still close enough for you! Have a magnificent 2014! *hugs*

First off, you must have been reading my mind or something because the “You do know that song’s about date rape, right? Are you luring me out here for some perverted purpose?” part? Yeah, was thinking the exact same thing last week. I have two versions of the song on my iPod listened to both of them while working the other day. One version is Dean Martin, whom I love, and the other is by some guy with a creepy old-man sounding voice. I definitely paid attention when guy #2 sang. I think I come with the same conclusion about the meaning of the song every year but then wind up forgetting about it until the next year.


Okay, now, I have read this probably about a dozen times since you posted it and have been thinking about what kind of feedback to write. And, well, I suck at feedback so first let me say thank you once again for another wonderful round of fics. I don't know why but every year I feel almost like I am not worth the time but appreciate you doing this anyway.

The whole week I was really looking forward to what you had come up with for me and you didn't disappoint. Cute guys and Christmas and snow and cuddling and such. Just what I wanted. Yay! And can I say that I as thinking of this image while reading:



Yeah. I don't know why he's doing a Fonzie pose but I love the idea of the parka.

Yup. Happy customer once again. Who can't stop rambling.

Oh, and don't worry about not having seen the TV show yet. The big reveal about Coulson's death is supposed to be in the next episode. I will either be very disappointed and angry or disappointed and cry. The show is an average show that I was hoping would be more spy-centric but is not.

Anyway, thank you very much once again. Perhaps one day I will be able to provide you with coherent feedback which is worthy of your generosity.

Parka-wearing!Coulson is love! Look at that sexy, warm beast! heehee The Fonzie pose is hilarious, also that you called it that, because that's it exactly. LMAO

Thanks for the feedback! I know what you mean about not being able to write comments that equal a story's awesomeness; I feel like that a lot when I try to leave feedback. I just appreciate knowing that you like it enough to reread it! :-)

How funny about 'Baby it's Cold Outside'! Even the young and playful versions are a little disturbing, but I can imagine creepy old man voice version would be especially disturbing! *shudder*

I hope you didn't mind that there's no cuddling out there in the snow, and there's a mix of less-than-happy emotions--Clint frustrated, Coulson trying to make up for being gone, etc. The angst just wouldn't stay away! I hope it made the snuggling more meaningful in the end :-)

You, my dear, are always worth the time! I'm happy to do it and happy that you liked it! And it's nice to write for you in a fandom I know a little better than ones I've attempted in the past :-) Though I really need to watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. already.
