oh! thank you for such lovely and long feedback! i always feel inadequate when i reply to feedback, so if this response is inadequate, allow me to apologise in advance. i'm delighted you felt that it was like an episode of the show. that's how i tried to think about it while i was writing it - like a crack episode, only with slightly more slash. i adored writing an ensemble like this, with crack and more crack and all my favourite pairings and everyone together as a group, because that is exactly what i love so completely and so passionately about tenipuri itself. thank you for all your compliments. i can't stop blushing. :) but for the record - i don't think fuji understands ryoma completely, though he has a better idea than most. there are a few times in canon when he surprises even fuji, and tezuka is the only one who is just quietly satisfied, because he already understands it all through their psychic connection. ♥
