I love you a lot.
Dammit. Maybe I am the Pomeranian.
Like, seriously. Shopping for engagement rings.
It’s like Mr. Kool-Aid’s voice, but, you know, meaner.
This is wonderful. The whole fic. The voices are spot on. And oh, badass Mr Kool-Aid, how do I love thee?
a party where the guest list included Guns N’ Roses and maybe a tiger.
Stop making me LOL. It's undignified.
In conclusion, that was great, and I only wish it had run a few thousand words more. Perfect characterisation. <3

Thank you very much for your lovely feedback. You're absolutely right; it could have been longer; I had originally started with two plots that came together at the end, but it was my first time writing for this fandom so I was kind of nervous about biting off more than I could chew. I'm really pleased you liked the abbreviated version, though. :)

That's how I took it; no worries. :)
(Thank you! The style sheet is by milou-veronica. The header is by myhappyface; we are what you might call worryingly obsessed with "Thunderheart." Seriously; I think we're the entire fandom.)

Aw, Perry, that almost qualified as sweet.
A++ job, especially with the character voices. ♥

Sweet is not Perry's strong suit. I love when Harry's so upset over shooting the Dexter Clinic guard, and he looks so sad that Perry tries to comfort him even though he's still absolutely flabbergasted that Harry could be so stupid ("Eight percent? Eight percent? Who taught you math?"). It's the lamest pep talk ever, and for the first time Perry is really, clearly uncomfortable. "Can we please get back to shooting people? Kthx."
Thank you so much! It's my first time writing in this fandom, so I'm thrilled it worked for you.
