I had so much fun with Nick in this. When I first came up with the idea for the story, he wasn't in it in any significant way. Then I added the scene where they're together in the hotel, and all the other scenes just snowballed from there. Every time I found a problem with the story, it seemed to be fixable by adding more Nick. (Which I think is something that could be said for many problems in the world.)
I'm really glad you liked Joey, too. I hate any character bashing, but Joey-bashing makes me especially sad. (Almost as sad as Brian-bashing, in fact.) I did feel like I'd rather short-changed the other Boys, so I'm happy you enjoyed the little bits which were there.

Nick was so much fun to write in this. It was one of those times when a character really did just take over the story once I let them into it.
