I love this so much.

Ray's speech is brilliant and so in character, and I love that Brad recognizes right off the bat that he's a goner even if he doesn't want to look at it for that very reason.

Thank you! I think I like writing mouthy, wordy, crazy people! Not sure what that says about me... *g*

And thank you again for your help!

[romanticalgirl]

It says you're awesome and need to write more GK!

[oxoniensis]

Hee, am definitely writing more! I have vague ideas at the moment, but I need more rewatching - I've rewatched the first four episodes now (some bits multiple times), so I'm getting more familiar with it all. But I want to write stories set during the episodes, so I'm going to have to keep rewatching to get everything straight in my head!

[oxoniensis]

Oh, wow, thank you so much! One of the many reasons I'm nervous about writing in this fandom is all the different voices to try and get right, so your comment was a nice surprise to come home to.

[nicolasechs]

Oh, this is SO good. You have a great feel for all the boys' voices, especially Ray-Ray. And that penultimate paragraph was *scorching*.

Definitely not over.

I hope this means a sequel. :D

You have a great feel for all the boys' voices, especially Ray-Ray.

*beams* Thank you so much!!! I was nervous at even attempting to write them, but then I got the idea in my head of Ray ranting about moustaches, and it all sort of happened.

I haven't a sequel as such in mind, but I desperately want to write stories set as the war goes on, Brad and Nate dancing around each other and their attraction to each other. I'm all about the first times, and the UST, and the getting there.

Eeeiii! (Ok that was supposed to be a squeal of delight, but I have no idea how to spell it *g*)

That was awesome. I loved Ray's monologue--it was so very much him. But Brad standing up and shutting him down wins the prize. That was totally rocking.

And of course, Trombley's reaction just made me laugh. What a wonderful set-up to the actual clusterfuck the mustache growing contest turned into.

[oxoniensis]

A squeal of delight is welcome however it's spelled! *g* I was so nervous at posting this, so I'm thrilled to bits you enjoyed it.

And I'm glad you liked Brad's little speech at the end - I was trying to say it in his voice to see if I'd got it right (thank heavens there was no one around to hear me!)

Wow. That last paragraph -- so, so, so hot, especially considering how pitch-perfectly subtle the buildup is, in between all that banter. Kickass banter, by the way, fast-moving and quirky and funny and dirty like it should be for GK. Fantastic!

Thank you! I'm so glad the buildup didn't feel too forced or rushed, especially as it was just a little fic. And hah, the porny ending took me by surprise! *g*

I LOVED writing Ray banter! And the other guys for that matter. Just so many of them to keep straight in my head - with rewatching I'm gradually getting the hang of them all, but it's taking time!
