Brilliant, everything from it being Evan's point of view to Brad humming "We Didn't Start the Fire"

Loved the lack of clarity to the relationship. They work that way.

Thank you so much! I'm so happy the lack of clarity worked, and I was quite pleased to come up with a Billy Joel song for that bit. It seems like exactly the type of music Ray would hate.

This was fantastic! I loved the perspective; it's something we don't see very often. Very well written and funny and subtle.

I love this story, especially how you narrated it.

[perpet_fic]

Thank you! It kind of went to Reporter by accident, but I'm glad it did, and I'm happy you liked it.

This is wonderful!

At first glance it seems so understated - just Reporter observing - but it's soo much more than that. Love the little details, like Walt tapping his foot to Brad and Ray singing; it feels so like the series. And love Brad's last line; very in character :)

This is already on my "to reread" list.

Thank you so much! I'm flattered to have made the list so quickly. Honestly, I nearly forgot Walt, since you usually only see his bottom half, so I was glad to fit him in.

I really, really liked this. It's great to see it from Reporter's point of view. It's funny, and thoughtful, and just really lovely. :D
