Hee! I always struggle with endings, and this was no exception, so I'm very happy you liked it! Thanks for reading!

BAHAHAHA!! The boobcakes cupcakes! Oh my goodness! The nipple colored frosting in the captain's mustache!

Let's just say I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read this.

And the last two lines are so perfect.

[mrstater]

Haha! I'm tickled you found this spew-worthy. :D Thanks for reading!

*snort* Hilarious!

Other than the boobcakes, what I love is the zany stream-of-consciousness feel to the narration, like Eugene did get a little bit tipsy on his appletini.

Hee! I'm so happy this made you laugh; and I'm totally giggling at the image of lightweight!Eugene. Thanks for reading!

"Like piss," Günter mutters, sipping at an appletini.

Bwahaha! I love, love, love that. Günter is my favorite thug. I want to know all about him, and I want him to get his own decorating show: Thoughtful Thug Design.

I think it's pretty fantastic that Eugene ends up having an appletini too. He'd be a James Bond wannabe in another era. Plus, he doesn't mind stamping all over his image now. Beer bad? Serve me up a fruity drink!

"I'm glad this is my last night of freedom."

That's the perfect thing for a guy who actually wants to get married to say. I'd rather hang with Blondie than the thugs too, even if they bake a mean cupcake. :)

Totally made me smile. Thanks for sharing, my dear!

Hee! Günter is my favorite, too--he really needs to audition for HGTV's Design Star, don't you think? (OMG, crossover idea! He TOTES decorated Gaston's hunting lodge!)

He'd be a James Bond wannabe in another era. Plus, he doesn't mind stamping all over his image now. Beer bad? Serve me up a fruity drink!

Oh dear. I'm already drowning in AU territory, and now you have me wanting to write Eugene in the 60s, adopting James Bond for an alter-ego instead of Flynnigan Rider and rescuing Rapunzel spy-style...

That's the perfect thing for a guy who actually wants to get married to say. I'd rather hang with Blondie than the thugs too, even if they bake a mean cupcake. :)

Blondes are more fun, right? And Eugene so wants to get married. :D

So happy to make you smile. That makes me smile. Thanks for commenting!

James Bond wannabe.

Haha! Awesome.

My maiden name was Bond, so I'm especially fond of this idea...

Excellent job. I really like the idea of the Captain getting "nipple-coloured frosting" on his moustache.

Thank you!
