Awww, this was really, really lovely! The whole idea is just adorable and hilarious, because I can totally buy that Katie would be a bet crazy woman who'd always win. What I love about it, though, is the relationships between everyone. I don't usually read gen fics, especially RPF ones, but I'm so glad I read this. The friendships were so wonderfully played out in this, they just made me grin! :)

I don't know if this was done intentionally or not, but I also really got a light flavour of various ships -- Katie/Angel, Bradley/Angel, Bradley/Colin, Colin/Katie, etc. I know that's not the point, but I just felt like it was very equal opportunity and I quite enjoyed that! (I'm probably making no sense, sorry... but I really do mean this as a compliment, haha!)

And you had me cracking up throughout! Everyone is so cute in this ;)

Also, not gonna lie... the end, with Bradley finally winning a bet, actually legitimately made me tear up, I was so touched by it. This was just such a delight to read. Thanks for sharing ♥

Thanks ever so much! The friendships were what I was intending, yes, but of course I couldn't go without hinting at the ships! ;D Ah, thank you, so muuchhh. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. ♥♥♥

I loved this light hearted story and I could totally see Katie being super observant and detail oriented enough to win bet after bet with the less focused cast and crew. Her insistence that they are not friends even while being super tight with everybody had me laughing. I love the idea of her swanning down to the pub in pyjamas. Rambo could totally pull that off.

There was a wonderful feeling of love and camaraderie through this charming story. I really hope the cast get along even a quarter as well as the people you've written.

Thank you so much! ♥ And I must admit that this was mostly self-indulgence on my part for the relationships - I want them all to get along so badly!

This was adorable. I loved the banter and all the bets. Loved that Katie was winning them every single time and yet Bradley couldn't stop betting. So darn cute!
