I am so excited for this fic. This is such a beautiful, bittersweet moment and I really love the palpable tension you've managed to infuse throughout the scene. It's almost another fully-fleshed character in the room there with them in a way that hurts but also makes me want to cheer them through at the same time.

Also, LOVE this line, lol:

"I'm long past the age where I've any virtue left to trouble me," Andy said finally.
