As if the inclusion of TMNT references wasn't enough to snag me right from the off, there's this whole prize bit of dialogue:

'There's comics,' Jeremy said. 'I collect them. I keep them in order in a special box my dad gave me. You can read one, I suppose,' he added diffidently, 'if we're going to be friends.'

'I'd love you forever if you let me,' Brian told him seriously.

'You've only seen the cartoon?' Jeremy asked.

'Not him,' said Pepper, returning, looking a little flushed but otherwise no worse for wear. 'Not with his mum.'

'Not with my mum,' Brian echoed easily. 'My mum reckons if we watch anything except Songs of Praise on the telly we'll all probably end up in Hell.'

'My dad says television is the opiate of the masses and Hell is a bedtime story made up to subjugate the proletariat,' Jeremy said.

I love Them!fic so, so much. There is never enough of it in the world for my liking, which is why I always make a point of having one of my request-prompts be for Them!fic. If I keep requesting it, hopefully people will

How very sweet! I like the identity exploration.

You've created such a nice history for the Them and I can totally see them playing Turtles.
