Oh my god, how great is it when a fic idea just comes to you out of nowhere and then you spend the whole day writing? I mean, ignoring the whole bunch of other ideas that I've been thinking about for ages and can't seem to write a single word of, and also the fact that this idea kept me up most of last night and I am now exhausted. My brain was

I'm going to preface this comment by saying that this is my favorite piece of fiction that has ever been posted to y_slash, and that's saying a lot as we have some brilliant writers.

This, though. This is so brilliant and well written and in character, your Alex voice is flawless and you are one of maybe three people I have seen write Charlie believably.

This is going in my mems on here, and I get the feeling I'm going to reread it over and over and over again. Thank you so much for writing it.

I can't get over how good this is. Just read it again and it renders me practically unable to move, just splayed in a puddle of bliss that only good writing can do.

Write more. Write always. Write forever.

Wow, thank you so so much for this comment. ♥ I'm really glad you liked it. And I'm really glad you thought they were in character - it was my first time writing them so I was anxious about that, but I guess the fact that I've been watching their videos for years helps. XD It's weird though, I expected to write from Charlie's POV if I ever wrote them because I am much more similar to him, but somehow it was a lot easier to write him through Alex's eyes. I was worried that he might seem too shy and nervous, so I'm really glad he was believable to you (especially if that's rare!).

I definitely want to write some more because it was really fun, but I don't have any specific ideas at the moment!

So... You are fucking brilliant.

How is this the first #y_slash you've done? I am like. Wow. Just. Jesus. You are such a fucking /good/ writer. And. God. You characterized all of them so perfectly.

The section with Alex and Tom and Charlie and sdlkfdlvknsdflkvsdfm. Basically, holy fucking shit write everything in life ever.

Cherimon is one of those pairings that are just so popular that everyone writes them, and a lot of the time they aren't written well. And I for one, find Alex and Charlie hard to pin down when it comes to characterizing them. But you ma'am, have written one of the best Charlie's I've ever read in my life and just df vldfkvsd.

God. I just want you to always write things. Legit. If you wrote any Hexamon at all I might die of flail. <3

♥ Thank you so much for this lovely comment! I'm grinning like a fool right now, jsyk.

I've wanted to write something in this fandom for AGES but I could never quite formulate an idea and I was worried it would be a total failure, and then there was all the weirdness with the Youtubers finding out about the slash, but...I finally did it. XD I'm so glad you thought they were in character - Charlie is definitely a tricky one to write.

The section with Tom is kind of my favourite. I didn't even intend to write so much of him, he just sort of showed up and then I got carried away, and it turned out to be helpful to compare his and Alex's friendship to Alex and Charlie's. He is super fun to write and I definitely ship Hexamon too so...if I manage to come up with an idea, I might write that too. :)

I'm really glad you liked it!!

That was fucking beautiful oh my god I love you.

♥ Thank you!!

Thank you! I really enjoyed writing the 20 Questions bit, and Tom particularly - I imagine a touchy-feely drunken Tom is always a good thing. XD

I'm glad you liked this, especially if you don't usually like Cherimon. :)

oooh, who are they? is curious!

/also, wtf, LJ is looking different...

[likecharity]

Omg, LJ does look different, what is going on?

Alex and Charlie are Youtube vloggers - I don't wanna link to their channels in case they trace it back here because I'm paranoid (they already know about the slash, but still) but Alex's username is nerimon and Charlie's is charlieissocoollike. Check them out, they're really funny and their bromance is adorable!

[estioe]

oh god, some reallly horrrriibbble fucking changes. and there's a huge outcry about it with the userbase. i hope they revert back, this new comment scheme. :/

and I will check the guys out! is that them in your icon?

[likecharity]

I kinda like being able to see the selection of icons, but everything else is...:/ I don't know how they haven't learned yet that LJers DON'T LIKE CHANGE.

:D It is!
