I love love LOVE this. MZ was actually the first ship I ever got into on DA (there was that initial ML at the beginning that all of us probably liked) and now I'm MA all the way. Still, I love reading MZ stuff. Yeah, Zack may have been a teensy bit out of character, but who cares? He's almost impossible to write anyway. ;) This was a clever, humorous story, and I'm really glad you posted it!

Not bad...Not bad at all. And I agree with you on the whole Max/Zack business, I'm not really much into it either. But I really liked this story and Zack wasn't really that much out of character. Of course I don't really read enough of Zack to get a proper read on him anyway. And Alec and Mole as matchmaker...that was hilarious! Nicely done.

Now, if I ever read a near perfect, amazing love story, amaranth this would be it! *applauds frantically*
I loved the pairing, the humour, the characterizations... the way Max and Zack planned on dealing with their "annoying, meddling little brother".
Awesome and most convincing scene-setting. I really would have loved to see this come to pass on the show.

Love it!! Deliciously cheeky but sweet too - like a fine white wine. Mmmm.... wine... :D
IMO Zack is perfectly in character so don't worry your pretty little head. Especially when you write such fun scenarios! I love that Alec is their "little brother" despite the fact that he's actually older than Max - his trouble-making skills would certainly earn him the moniker!
Thanks for a fab challenge response, BadCat xx

If this is what whining gets me, I should do it more often! :D
I see the slightly rough edges in some parts but I'm sure we can polish it all up in the next few days (if you want to, that is) but really, it reads fine so you don't have much of anything to worry about.
As for Zack being out of character - a little, yeah, but then I find that almost everyone writes Zack out of character in some way - he is a difficult one to write. And just because you might hear him in your head doesn't mean it will transfer to paper. *sigh* I have to believe it gets better with time or else I'll never get any of my new (or old) Zack plots written!
Loved this line: She just couldn’t seem to think of Zack as both brother and lover. because I had to say I kinda understand why that might be a problem :P Hee! *smacks Max* honestly, girl! Just stop thinking about the sibling aspect. It's not like you are actually related or even grew up with the guy during your formative years! *shake head*
Anyway, nice work and if you do make any modifications/changes I look forward to reading the edited version and I'll comment more then. :D
I love you for submitting a story even when you didn't want to! And for choosing a pairing I am somewhat obsessed with lately. And for just being an overall sweetheart. *mwah*

That was sweet and so Alec=) I'm glad you decided to write this even if you don't like Valentines day.
Author's Response: Thanks! Glad I could make you smile =)
