Oh, I like this! Such a warm but still casual start for the guys, and Jim is just endearing here.

No big deal means he sweeps in like a whorl wind and leaves his mark then chases off after the next rainbow to come along. Hell I had hoped that he would at least try to stay. Weasel his way into my home and heart as he had managed to do in my work.

I love that description of Blair. And Jim's hope that Blair's would stay and weasel his way into Jim's heart is just so endearing, since it's Jim admitting that Blair isn't going to have to work very hard at all to weasel his way in...

Tiny typo, maybe? "Whirlwind" instead of "whorl wind"? But maybe I'm thinking of something else...

as easy to spill as love -- wonderful phrase

"I didn’t have room for two roommates, you know?” How’s that for round about, eh Ellison?

Heh heh heh. Jim is just *so* endearing here. And Blair not catching that hint just serves Jim right. ::pets Jim::

Jim pulling the backpack from Blair's shoulders makes me melt; I can just see him doing it, and it's so symbolic, and works so wonderfully here.

And it's so nice that it's both guys wanting Blair to stay, that Jim's already figured out he likes having Blair sharing his territory; that leaves me feeling all warm...
