Break seemed a little more flustered than we've all know to him to be, but dammit, you write Rufus amazingly. "If there’s anything as sexy as knowledge... ." That is exactly what he would say! And the way he keeps on hiding and plotting and making mistakes and covering them up, LOL.

Thanks for your kind words! Yeah, Break was extra flustered 'cause I think that's what the prompter wanted ... "no matter how embarrassing it is for the other party." LOL.

I hope you don’t mind that I rewrote a bit of PH canon with a new subtext to support this crack pairing

Are you kidding? That's the best way to write crack -- not rewriting canon so much as skewing subtext just enough to support your own theories. For me, at least, the funniest stories are the ones where you can look past the craziness of the characters and feel like their antics are things they would really do, given the proper set-up.

On that note, I laughed the whole way through this.

Thanks! I agree with you about the best way to write crack. I felt compelled to be obeisant to OP in my note probably because I had just been slapped in the kink meme for a couple of my fills, which apparently didn't meet someone's requirements. (I'm still scratching my head over the situation). Anyway, I'm glad you got a laugh out of it!

LOL I'm second omohnio. I rarely read fics cuz my English is not that good. xD But I really understand about 80% of this fic, and I lol'ed a lot, too! Break seems to be feebler lol but shouldn't he be in front of a Rufus like that LOL LOL

Can amuse someone who don't read often, you are "hired", Alyssa, congrats! xD

As for the requirements for general fanfiction, I think it must have:
Rating: K, K+, T or M.
Genre: no yaoi/yuri. Can be boys love but only just a little.
Also, for general fanfiction, it shouldn't be too focus to anyone/pairing.
English (optional) : make it simple to understand as much as you can.

I don't know much about fanfiction so I'm still not very sure, but you can write something similar to those stories in ~caucus race~ novel so not only yaoi lovers/fans of the pairing/character or something like that but everyone can read and enjoy it.

What do you think?

I can totally write simply so many people can understand...it's what I like to do best! I haven't found English translation of Caucus Race stories, but I will try to come up with something general that a lot of people could like. Thanks!
