Okay, this is officially the most uncommon combination I ever read. How do you manage to write them in character, believably and just as perfect as you do, I won't ever understand. But I loved this one, it's absolutely great. I think I love how you write Liam. I actually was never interested in the character that much but you definitely made him compelling. And I love how you use Eddie who I ♥ seeing that he's from of my favorite episodes and no one ever mentions the guy ;) great job!

Well I don't blame you, Liam is really too much of an expert at hurting the poor guy. And I totally understand how someone could block Eddie out, but since FI featured, apart from awesome!Charlie, naked!Desmond and ghost!Boone (I mean, that was the only way my two favorite characters shared an episode. I won't think about the sadness of it) I'm compelled to remember every single thing about that. Eddie especially XD and well, at least he's more pleasant to have in your mind then Christan and Cooper! ;)

Liam is such a manwhore! What a genius idea of a threesome. I loved the Jimminy Cricket reference. Oh and the crushing implication that Karen was Charlie's girlfriend first; so that's yet another thing his big brother stole from him. Poor Charlie...

Charlie snorts and shakes his head in disapproval at him, but there's very little that could ruin Liam's mood. He rushes over, milk in hand, to kiss the top of his brother's head as he grins and as daydreams of their future fame take root in his mind. "What're we gonna be, Charlie?" he asks quietly.

"Rock gods," Charlie intones solemnly. "We're going to be bloody rock gods."

He manages to coax a smile from his brother's mouth with a loud yell of excitement - because the future is rushing towards them faster than he can see, and he can't wait for it to turn their pitiful little lives upside down.

I can picture this moment. So in character. The ending was tragically tender.

Wow! You've really taken the flashback prompt and ran with it... all the way up to the top of the hill *grins* I found this really interesting, because the pairing(s) are so original here, and I must admit I couldn't remember who Kevin was until I looked it up first (which means your memory is totally awesome) but you still manage to put it all together in your mind, and within a fortnight too (which means your imagination is ever better) Well done! ^_^

Oh, this is so fantastic! I just adore your Liam characterization, he's such a petulant child, so bent on his own pleasure and destruction. He's absolutely believable - he just shimmers with life! I loved how everything that happens is interpreted through his selfish, self-centered viewpoint - you put that across so well. It might sound like I don't like Liam, but that's not really true. He's such a good character, I like him in that context, though he's not a very good person.

And points to you for even coming up with this 3some. As soon as I saw it, I had to bookmark it, because it was just so intriguing.

Wow, I don't think many people could pull off Eddie/Liam/Kevin, but you definitely did! I figured when I started reading that by the end I'd be completely convinced that this really should have happened in canon, and I am. You write all the characters so well, and you make me like them. Liam's voice, particularly, is excellent. I really felt like I was inside his head for this.

Amazing fic!
