Well, now that Peter has spotted Neal, there is no way he is letting him disappear again any time soon :D

Awww, I love the snow falling ♥ Peter always notices/finds Neal -- it's his superpower, so Neal will be back with his family in no time.

Oh, happy HAPPY sigh.

This actually might inspire a very late Advent fic. Not that I signed up for a date, but maybe...

Sooooo gorgeously done, and also so, so *perfect*. I'm not at all worried -- I know Peter will "find" Neal right when he's most needed, and Neal will be inside, wrapped in hugs and loved (and possibly hand-knit blankets) with either Italian Roast and/or hot cocoa from El very, very soon!! <3

Heeeee {{{hugs}}} Thank you ♥ Yes to all of the above cuz Peter and El missed him just as much as he missed them ♥ It's Christmas, time for love and forgiveness and best moment to start fresh :D

Gosh, that's beautiful! And I bet that as soon as Peter realizes who the guy standing across the street really is, Neal finds himself pulled into Casa Burke XD Great work, sweetie!

Thank you *bounces* And yes, that is exactly what happens :D I mean, sure, they have a lot to talk about and issues to work through but it's Christmas and they have missed each other terribly and now Neal is finally home, anything else is just background :D
