Interesting fic. Normally it is the reverse for these stories, but I liked the way you handled it. Great job.

I don't normally comment, but I wanted to say that I liked this. It was plausible and believable. The role reversal is certainly different and, while I can understand why you'd be reluctant to continue, I hope you choose to expand this story. It's interesting seeing Puck being the vulnerable one and relying on Rachel. Wonderful job.

Thank you for commenting, even if you don't normally! I'm so happy to see that it was believable. After having it live in my head for so long, you start to wonder.

Wow. I thought this was amazing; subject matter was really interesting, specially since it isn't something that's really covered by many authors.

I thought your characterisation of Puck and Rach were really good, given the circumstances.

Kudos :)

I know--it's definitely not an idea that you normally see. I think that's why it stuck in my head so much, getting to explore when this happens to someone you don't expect.

Thank you so much for commenting! I really appreciate it.

Oh sweetheart.
This is hurty and well developed and there was the perfect ring of their characters in all of them. The way they reacted to everything seemed true to the way they're portrayed. Your charactersiation of Puck made me ache, because even though he thinks he's being weak and pathetic, actually he's so strong and Rachel is wonderful. I adored Santana too.

I want more! I want to see you make him better! But I also really like this ending too, because it's hopeful without being explicit.

Oh, thank you so much! I'm glad to know you thought they were still in character, even through what was going on.

Santana is a little more clued in because she witnessed the freakout in his truck. I like their relationship--as so many other people have said, they're like the same person, just the male/female versions. They may screw around, but I like to think they actually care about each other.

I thought this was just going to be a one-shot, but everyone clamoring for more has planted some ideas in my head. We'll have to see if anything comes of it.
