Yay, Deppenport is crack and you're My Man! The pangs of longing in this make me want to cry a little.

And I lu-huv this: When Johnny is around Jack, he want to tell Jack everything - everything that might make him look uncool or compromise his position as the guy to be around. Tell me you'll give me Uncool!Johnny.

Also, the little detail about Johnny being careful not to mention Jack too much is perfect - what an authentic, universal dilemma. I love it.

That it's from Johnny's POV is very cool as well; it seems more intimidating to write from his perspective, but you've done an artful job of it. Bravo!

PS - the Decemberists. You are awesome.

Thank you! Cry? Really? And not because it's super bad? SCORE!

Tell me you'll give me Uncool!Johnny.
I actually wasn't planning on writing a sequel, but this paring has really got an artistic bug in my ear. (Don't mentally picture that).

Yes, the Decemberists are MADE of awesome.

OMG, please, it was super-kickass and I'm now your super-bitch.

Pleasepleaseplease keep this pairing alive! I will do most anything. (*cough*FirstMove!James/Jack*cough*) Seriously, Deppenport is composed of 1 part crack cocaine and 2 parts irresistable manbeauty and I think I may die without it. DIE.

OK, I agree on one condition (who am I kidding here?): YOU write some more of your own Deppenport. I loved your fic! It was really different from mine, mostly in that, in your fic, the guys were looking for sex, and in mine, they're all deep and meening ful and stuff.

I really like yours. :)

Fantastic. I love the denial in this piece, which really rings true.

Johnny swallows. How is Michelle?
This line is fantastic because it doesn't actually say anything explicit about Johnny's emotions but I can see it in my head and the implied guilt and tension comes through really well.

And I have to add that I'm transfixed by your background!!

Yeesss...my background is making you veeerryy sleeeppyyy. Your eyelids are getting heavy....
You will dream of Jack/Will. When I clap my hands, Will will be replaced by Norrington. VERY good!

Thank you so much! I wrote this late at night, and I was worried that it would come off as a
crack!fic. Good to know it didn't.

Ooooh. C'est magnifique! XD

Orlando doesn’t get them. Johnny makes sure to laugh with reserved gusto. He likes Jack’s jokes.

And just... Horray for that bit. :)

The attraction (the whole story for that matter) is so subtle, and understated, with an underlying sense of yearning, disguised as simple admiration. You're letting us draw our own conclusions, without forcing anything on us. Very classy. *Golf clap*

Thank you!

...yearning, disguised as simple admiration
I was thinking of maybe writing one from the same time (like a parallel fic) from Jack's POV, where Jack's wants and emotions are much more out in the open.

*Golf claps back*

Wow that was really interesting. I've never read this pairing before. Not even Sparrington. I'm firmly in the Sparrabeth camp mahself. ;)

I hope it was somewhat enjoyable! I, too, am mostly a Sparrabeth person :)
