This is marvellous! You've got to love the Armstrongs! This manner of speaking is contagious, though; I'm struggling to write this normally! It reminded me of a character from the Phoenix Wright games (I don't know if you're familiar with the Phoenix Wright series =s) pertaining to his tautological and wordy verboseness. But going back to my point, I liked this a lot. :3

I'm not familiar with Phoenix Wright, but I certainly like the sound of that character! I know what you mean about it being contagious--- after I finished this fic, I was writing like this for days afterward. I'm so glad you enjoyed it, thanks for reading and commenting! :D

Magnificently silly, the line about virility really put a smile on my face.

[colonel_bastard]

Heehee, that's my favorite line, too. So happy to hear that it brought you a smile! :D

Oh, Armstrong. So kooky, and yet what I love is the fact that they go about thinking that all of this is perfectly normal (and manly).

[colonel_bastard]

Yes, that's exactly it-- they all act like this it's totally normal! So glad you enjoyed it. :D
