I love this fic. I don't comment nearly enough to say so, but I do. It's awesome.

The song I hear when I read is Adventures In Solitude by The New Pornographers

I can definitely see (or rather hear) this! Such a good song.

I've been listening to it at work all day, it's extremely inspiring! Too bad I was expected to actually do my job instead of writing...

Oh and thanks for stopping by. :)

My Xabi-holding-a-giant-mix-tape icon is so perfect for this task! Wilco's 'We're just friends' isn't exactly not depressing (but not horribly so, quite). Instead I will brainstorm some songs that I can imagine hearing but haven't yet... Maybe some Belle & Sebastian? I don't recall which song Xabi tweeted a link to a while back, but it was probably a little too happy anyway.

I was trying to remember the lyrics for 'A Century of Fakers' and this part is almost appropriate enough that it made me laugh (sorry plump Xabi!):

If you ever go lardy, or go lame
I will drop you straight away

Or 'Desperation made a fool of me':

I'm tired, on my shoulders weighing heavily
Is the full responsibility for your troubles and your charms
Your betrayal goes around with me
Like the sword in some old tragedy
It is sticking in my back
People laugh

I think that picture is going to have to be the soundtrack cover (or at least the back cover, can't really have him smiling like that, can we?) so you've been doubly inspiring! Thank you!

ahahahahahahahahahahahaha! I will be laughing forever at this. He's ON A DIET, OK? GOD. (I miss Fat!Xabi already... I can't help it if I'm very protective of him...)

I love your angsty tags over Coldplay, when, let's face it, PHIL COLLINS is the elephant in the room here.

Hahahahahaha. My favorite thing about it is not even in this picture, it's the whole series of poses like that they did with Stevie and Kaka for example where everyone's supposed to be looking at each other all grrrrrrrrr, I will fuck up your possession stats and break your will to live. And then there's these two...

Too depressing?

Love Ridden
Fiona Apple

I want your warm but it will only make me colder when it's over
So I can't tonight, baby

No, not baby anymore
If I need you, I'll just use your simple name
Only kisses on the cheek from now on
And in a little while we'll only have to wave

My hand won't hold you down no more
The path is clear to follow through
I stood too long in the way of the door
And now I'm givin' up on
You

I Want You More Than Ever by The Clientele

Foolproof by Feist

Read your fic in one go today, REALLY LIKE IT SO FAR :3

'Mr. November' as THE STEVIE SONG is perfect. Though I'm partial to 'Slow Show'

I wanna hurry home to you
Put on a slow, dumb show for you and crack you up
So you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
God, I'm very, very frightened, I'll overdo it

Slow Show is THE song. It hits you right where it hurts the most. Man, fucking Berninger...

OMG, all of these are SO good. Um... we're going to need a double album. Thank you and thanks for going through the whole story in one go, I'm not brave enough yet...

Glad you liked them. :)

WIll Matt Berninger make a cameo in the story? A The National reference? Please let this happen...

I really like the banter between all the characters in the story, will patiently wait for the next chapter. :)

My brain would literally explode and go SPLAT against the wall if I ever attempted it... papper_docka and I have had the "Do you think they know OF each other?" conversation a dozen times (especially after someone from TN instagrammed a picture of a baby wearing the LFC home kit) I just... holy shit! I can't. BUT. Alligator was released in April 2005. So a little something could be arranged.

Thanks, that's what I'm enjoying in the writing process and I hope the readers do too. :) I actually skipped ahead and wrote some future chapters out of order, just need to plug the gap now...
