I know this story was out of your wheelhouse due to the nature of the prompt, but you absolutely knocked it out the park! Your dialogue is always just superb, and I love how it was used here to really bring out each character's personality.

The Douglas Adams references were amazing as well. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was a formative piece in helping me find my own comedic voice for some of my work. This was just the perfect blend of rom, com, and wonderfully wholesome vibes. Amazing work!

I loved this story! it has a unique take on romance/dating and had so many fun and charming moments. Love your character's use of poetry quotes, adds a really nice touch.

I love this story. It's very sweet with a very strong teenage love vibe. They're like kids at school.
