I, for one, think you should feel great about this. I could actually hear Angela's voice as I read this. Really, you've captured Angela perfectly here!

Oh, and I really love the line about mixing the colors for Hodgins' eyes. Beautiful imagery!

Thanks, Margaret. That's a relief. It was neat writing from Angela's point of view for a change.

I love that you mentioned that bit. Thank you.

Your Angela is dead-on. Love this.

Thank you, Sophia! :)

Well I liked it.
I noticed Angela hasn't been trying to push them together much lately, then again she appears to be out of a job.
*thinks*
You know, I kinda doubt Brennan and Booth would stand a chance if Ange and Caroline teamed up..

Thanks, Ren. :)

Oh my god. Can you imagine?! *g*

*grin* I think that if anyone could take over the Jeffersonian, it'd be them, lol.

I generally feel that telling Booth/Brennan stories from Angela's POV is a quick 'n dirty go-to for Bones fanfic writers, but I actually really like this. The length lends itself remarkably well to the perspective; any longer and I usually begin to think it's third person omniscient disguising itself in Angela's conversation style. I absolutely adore the paint mixing bit--it reminds me of the many beautiful paint color-related analogies in the novel Girl with a Pearl Earring. It also exemplifies the freshness I love so much about your writing. How many clichéd ways have we read blue eyes described? Your words and your colors are yours and yours only and I love that.

And you also get bonus points for imagery of Booth bending Bones over a stainless steel lab bench because that is hot. Thanks for sharing. :)

That was the best line I have read today.

I love it. I love Angela trying to capture Hodgins' eyes and never succeeding because they're just that unique and bright. I love her and Hodgins watching the show that is B&B arguing.

I'm particularly amused by "that big body of his" since I always thought of him that way as well, especially in comparison to Emily's incredibly slight and willowy frame...until they had the shot in "Girl in the Gator" with the camera looking DOWN over Stephen Fry's shoulder at what looked like a wee, tiny David Boreanaz and suddenly I realized that, as much as he looks big, a lot of it is in comparison to those he's around and he's actually got a relatively slight bone structure as well (and utterly gorgeous hands) for all that he's tall. But Emily is so fine-boned (except that amazing facial structure and jawline) that Booth LOOKS big next to Brennan.

So...yes. And Angela's voice with "Check them out" and her and Hodgins' excellent lip reading skills...perfect.

Darlin', you done writ some right fine story rat cheer--and yes this is the way I sound when I talk with my family--this is just screamin' hot and fine!
