Wow! I loved this. Charlie's voice is fantastic, and I liked the random little bits of info he dropped, like his tattoo of Norberta.

Thank you!!

I adore this so much. Charlie's voice is utterly brilliant and Millie as a rock star-- Perfection. I love it all-- every word, but I swear this was my undoing: She won't wear socks to bed, so I get freezing cold feet nestled under lil' Charlie in the middle of the night. That's an unpleasant wake-up call, I don't mind saying. *giggles madly*

Thank you so very, very much Mystery Author. I can't wait to find out who you are!

Oh you're so welcome! You have no idea how scary and hard it was to write Charlie fic for you, so I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!

Yay for giving poor Millicent a rock-star adulthood! First person POV is so hard to write and you did it wonderfully well! Brilliant!

Thank you so much! It was my first time writing first person POV so I'm glad you liked it.

Hell yeah! I adore Millicent, I'm so glad Charlie does too. she's totally awesome! and i like the way this fic was written too, i feel like i'm sitting across from him at the pub!

but when I made her breakfast and offered to darn her socks, she thought I was a keeper.
Molly would be so proud of her boy! XD

Thank you! I thought Charlie would have made his mother very proud too.

So I think I've mentioned this already, but this is awesome. Charlie's voice is absolutely wonderful, and works so well with the story you're telling. The idea of Millie as a rock star is original, and also works wonderfully. Love that he breaks off to talk about Norberta! XD

Thank you! And thank you again for your beta help!
