Oh my heavens. Beck, you just ripped my insides out AGAIN. I won't have anything left soon.

This may be my new favorite. It's epic. It resonates with me so much.

Damn.

yeah, like when richie dislocated his shoulder turning off his alarm clock? kay, maybe that was less him chucking his phone at bobby than, you know, having lots of sex with bobby, but same basic principle applies.

I don't know how this could get better, though I'm sure you could prove me wrong.

You did it. I don't know how, but you did it. Street's still a goddamn boy scout and I love him despite the colossally huge flaw of not having any flaws. Life is good because he can get chicken-fried steak anywhere and he says that's terrible and means it because you shouldn't try and hurt someone like that and right in the middle of everything he asks Richie not to swear and really, Huston, whatthefuck.

I love Zito's role in this too, he's the one that's been around the longest somehow and he's the one who won't let any of them be hurt and he makes sure everyone knows there's trouble in Huston.

Kills me when Harden is You and him are just fucking miles apart, you think I’ve missed you the way I’d miss him? and ripping into Huston where it hurts the most because he thinks he's a phobe ( ... )

the hardest part about writing from street's perspective is not swearing in the narrative. so. difficult.

how have you not latched on to danny haren?! c'mon, dude. the splitter. the blue eyes. crazy big shoulders.

i am actually endeared to your happy place thing. it is refreshingly different.

That's right... had to keep it clean for Huston. You did it well apparently, 'cos I never even thought about it.

I think I have a little unjustified bitterness of my own. Haren and Zito are tight and Zito won't return Mulder's calls. Someone Haren gets the blame in my mind. When he stopped and signed my hat, in a suit no less, I kinda forgave him a little.

Aha. It's different alright.

Simply amazing.

Because of this, my take home final was extremely close to being submitted late (though I forced myself to get it in on time). I would also like to mention that I refused to get up and pee even though I really really really really had to, because I was afraid I would miss something. Like this was a TV show or something.

I'd swear to God how amazing this is, but Huston might find me and ask me not to swear.

I'm speechless.
