I was thrilled to find and read your tale! Astrid falls by the wayside on the show, so it's nice to see fanfiction writers take an underdeveloped character and flesh them out. I love the idea of Peter/Astrid and this story was just lovely. I loved your descriptions of the non-verbal communication between the two and you really have Walter Bishops character down... loved the banter with himself about the smell that reminded him of pea soup. Very good!
