[ypaladinofchaos.livejournal.com]

Title: If You'll Marry Me, Say Nothing
Rating: PG-13
Characters/Pairings: Gino/Kallen, with a supporting cast of Milly, Rivalz, Tamaki, Ougi, and Viletta
Genre: Romance, Humor
Author’s Notes- Okay, I give. This pairing is cute. And abusing Gino is hilarious. Though I think I might have gone overboard. Also, Rivalz+Tamki=BFF. Remind me to write about them later, guys. Link goes to ff.net copy, once more it's too large for here.

Gino gets abused, Kallen is a tsundere, and somewhere down the line they manage to fall in love.

I d'awwwwwed.

Also:

One date led to a second, and the second led to a third, and by the fifth Kallen was slowly understanding that there was the slimmest, barest possibility, that she was falling for Gino Weinberg.

Quite understandably (though completely disproportionate to the realization, in Gino’s opinion), Kallen had a bit of a freak out (read: screamed so loud people in Korea could probably hear her and obliterated, not broke or shattered, the pencil in her hand once she caught herself idling twirling it and humming while thinking about the boy in question) and hid inside of her house for an entire day, phone turned off and hidden away in the darkest, deepest recesses of her closet.

was the best part.

*cackles* I particularly enjoyed writing that part, though I did worry whether or not the readers would appreciate those long winded and irreverent tangents.

“Sweetheart, if it isn’t the best date of your life, I’ll eat my own hat.”

“You don’t have a hat.”

“I’ll buy one and eat it.”

That was pure gold, hahaha.

And great, now you are gonna make me warm up to this pairing, damn, your writing is so good, ah.

[ypaladinofchaos.livejournal.com]

*laughs* Uh... sorry? I kind of just fell into this pairing myself. The idea came to me for this story and I just couldn't resist the pairing after that.

The hat dialogue was difficult for me, because I kept trying to come up with a reasonable bet that wasn't too convoluted. The hat thing was like the third rewrite of that exchange.

[snoozy.livejournal.com]

You better be sorry, yeah, lol.

Well, it was a nice idea and your characterization was pretty cool. //man, can you try to suck at writing just a bit? i feel kagino mode now, great.

[ypaladinofchaos.livejournal.com]

I suppose I'll try to suck next time. No promises though. *grins*

Kay. :D

[sincere]

Eeee, this fic is really sweet. X3 I love what you did with Gino in particular.

“Hey there,” Gino said cheerily, shirtless, wearing rather hideously patterned lime green swim trunks, carrying two glasses of punch in his hands, offering one to her. “What brings a cutie like you to a party like this?”

“Gino, we came here together.” So perfect. XD I love you ♥

[ypaladinofchaos.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it! *grins* I had tons of fun with Gino this fic- probably the whole reason I got into this pairing was because of how interesting it can be to write Gino.

Also, Rivalz and Tamaki becoming BFFs is especially amusing in light of the circumstances of their meeting (Tamaki busting in and pointing a gun at him.)

DEFINITELY WRITE MORE ABOUT THEM

RIGHT NAO

I DEMAND IT

FOR BONUS POINTS INVOLVE CLOVIS SOMEHOW

[ypaladinofchaos.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I'd forgotten about that scene.

I dunno if I can involve Clovis, but I'm interested now in writing things with them.

Thanks!

Thank you! Glad you liked it!

Loved the bit with Villetta talking with Kallen. XD

This definitely cheered me up!

[ypaladinofchaos.livejournal.com]

*laughs* That was one of my favorites too. Little bit of inspired dialogue.
