I told you I’d be back to stalk more of your oneshots, and here I am! This was sdjjl;kfds-worthy, let me tell you. I’m assuming that the contest was to keep your drabble to a sentence, but I didn’t look to make sure. At any rate, this was so adorable and sweet and just UGH all over. I love how you repeatedly used the title of the drabble all throughout, and it just tied everything up in a nice little bundle of adorableness. My absolute favorite part was this line: “the way he bounds around like an honest-to-god actual baby deer”. It was just so adorable and perfect and I could imagine it so well. Once more, you have astounded me with your talent.

So, I quite love it. You made good use of the space alotted while still breaking it up into sections to make it easy to follow. The repetition worked so well. Normally it would have been tedious, but this piece really needed it. This bit was seriously my favorite: "his big brown ridiculous eyes that are like something out of an actual cartoon and that Jesse has officially banned from deployment because they render him utterly powerless;" It's just so cute and friendly and very much your style.
I did feel though that the ending was a bit abrupt. I totally understand why, but it just didn't seem like it did the rest of the piece justice. Maybe it's just the "and all" that I'm unsure of. IDK.
Other than that, I love your writing a ridiculous amount xD
