^_^ This was definitely a really good piece. I never got to comment on the fic itself as I was betaing. Firstly, I like how you incorporate WWII things into the fic. A lot of 1950's fics sort of ignore the fact that it's the segue from WWII into the Cold War. You brought the history into the plot without making it obvious. Definitely a really good example of historical fiction.

And I can totally imagine Joe's car. It's like the little engine that could. XD

Thank you so much! And thank you again for betaing. I was so scared that it'd be just a caricature of the fifties, and, I guess it didn't :P I think I found my niche, now! I can't wait until I take the historical fiction class in my school!

Hahah, it really is! I kind of want to draw it now, little gears flying out of it and all.

OMG I love it...I'm so happy right now! I love how you involve WWII. I swear it's the best story I've ever read.

*hugs so fucking tightly* Oh my God! I'm so happy that you enjoy this! I was sitting around, thinking, "I need to make this cool, I need to make this cool... WAR VET PETE!" and kind of hoped for the best. It was either this or a play on "Grease" XD;

Ah! I'm so happy right now!

I think eather one would still have been great! But I will edmit your ending left me wanting more...lol I love how you wrote Pete kick someones ass with only one hand yeah!

[becomingblurred]

I am really tempted to continue, it was becoming a monster and I was trying to think of an adequet ending point XD;

Of course he could kick ass with one hand! He's gots legs! :3

i liked this! you took the time period very well and incorporated a good amount of era-relevant assumptions, i wish there was more, but this was splendid! nice job!

[becomingblurred]

Thank you so much!

I wanted to continue, but it was slowly becoming a little monster... maybe, if I have more time, I can extend it... just for my own sake XD; Thank you again!
