Hi larainefan!
I absolutley loved this, I must say. I enjoyed all the little touches you put in, like the candyfloss, the fact that with John&Paul at his side, George will be in the thick of the action.
Also like how you portrayed the gang-mentality they seemed to have, and how protective John&Paul were, closing around him. They seemed to do that a lot for each other in Beatle days as well.
I too thought the photograph of the three of them was very symbolic. I don't know if you meant it to be, but to me it just showed Ritchie will never had George completely to himself, because George comes with two others as well. I really liked that George looked around for their input on the ride. The dynamics were really nicely done, and subtly.
I'm always intruiged by any fic that explores that John/Paul/George triangle/trio... whatever you want to call it. I think the dynamics there are facinating.
And I loved Ringo rocking the cart and the sweetness of those first moments on the ride together. Awww!
Great read! <33333

I'm glad you enjoyed this, thanks!

The Beatles were a tight-knit group, weren't they? And once Ringo did join, he was included in that, I know outsiders spoke of how hard it was to break into their inner circle. Here Ringo was not yet part of the core group, and I also thought John and Paul staying so protectively by George's side gave Ringo a chance to yearn with angst for George. But in the end they (especially Paul, here, though John was just kidding with his remark about waiting around all night on George) did encourage him to go off with Ringo, to broaden his horizons a bit. Maybe they saw they had each other and George needs someone too! :)

That early John/Paul/George triangle fascinates me too, that would be so great for someone to do a psychological study on.

This was great! I really loved it. :)
And here the George wallpaper- it´s a litle out of topic, but I hope now it will finally work, because I´m not sure if you received it with all those Inbox messages :)

I really enjoyed this! I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. It was an intriguing story.

I also took the John/Paul/George picture as some sort of symbolism. XD

Young!George/Young!Ringo is adorable and I need to get my hands on more.

Not sure how Hot this was, not quite what I was aiming for. This was intended more as a sweet, initial-overture-type story. Thanks for the compliment!
