Oh! So glad you liked that "loses his hat" line - it made me snicker when I was writing it. And yes - what a peculiar thing to have in common - Oriental teenagers hurting Fraser. *g* Oddness!
I love Ray's realization here, sweet without being soppy:
*sigh of relief* Snowy went over this with me and gently pointed out several instances where it could easily have sunk into schmoopiness, something I wanted to avoid at all costs. It's a fine line, as you well know - loving and sweet, but avoiding teh pit of schmoopy blech. So thank you so much for specifying this!
