Really well written, I can imagine "Robotic Henry" getting ready in front of the mirror when you write: "Today is the day" , he tells himself in his head. Good work capturing the nerd factor! LOL.
But...I prefer Gio :D
He's THE GUY.

What delightful fluff this is! I adore the "terrible lack of citrus" and your parodic, tongue-in-cheek turn of phrase. :)

I love that last line.

So sweet and aw-worthy. The twist snuck up on me, because while I knew that Henry was somewhere on camera, I didn't figure out that he was on Today. The build-up makes the reunion that much sweeter.

1) There is no such thing as a ridiculous amount of baseball chatter - fellow Astros fan.

2) Love these lines: he departs the comfort of what he knows concretely to the novelty of that which he has only imagined.
In her mind she can see his face, his eyes focused on her as if she were the only thing in the world worth his stare.

I loved it! It was absolutely adorable. It was extremely well written, and it was all very realistic. Great work!

Fantastic. I'm sorry I wasn't on-line last night when you posted it but it was a welcome sight this morning.
