Summary: Cormoran hasn't been on a proper date since his last boyfriend pushed him off an overgrown vegetable. That was 600 years ago.
Some of you may remember his best mate Twixt. And credit for the...twist...to pockypuck :)

SO. MANY. PUNS. <3 <3 <3

I am not ashamed to admit that I squealed like a three-year-old when you used the word brobdingnagian. Oh my god you're wonderful.

And all the giant/badger/hedgehog references... GUH. Every other line, it seemed! I was quite literally wriggling with glee. Thank god nobody could see me. It was not pretty.

Also, you managed to combine a Doctor Who joke with a hedgehog pun. Would you like your Internets well-done or served up with (golden) eggs?

This made my night, you fantastic person you.

I'm so glad you liked it!! I cut it down so much I was afraid it didn't make sense anymore. In fact, I'm pretty sure it doesn't make sense. (Actually it didn't make any before the cuts, either. I was going to post the 'leftover' on my lj, but then I realised it was composed almost entirely of a conversation about fish sticks. So no great loss there.) But it has *puns* so who needs *plot*? Plot is stupid.

I spent so much time on Wikipedia staring intently at the hedgehog and giant entries and trying to come up with puns. Like you have no idea. Wikipedia now owns significant real estate on my soul. But it was all worth it because you caught my Doctor Who/Dreamcast gag, which I was pretty sure was far too complicated to live :D INTERNETS ALL AROUND. <3

(ps and *completely* unrelated, but your icon reminded me: did you hear the news today that JKR announced Lupin is 'ex-gay'?? SIRIUSLY WUT.)

pockypuck April 5 2011, 06:11:06 UTC

(...WHAT. 8D

Strictly speaking, I'm a tad bit offended and worried about the 'ex-gay' part and really want to correct that to 'bi' or 'Kinsey 2-4', but OMFG it's like she CANONIZED SHOEBOX.

SIRIUSLY.

Immensely entertaining piece. I'm sure I missed some of your references, but I'm still giggling.

I'm a little annoyed with myself, in retrospect, for making some of the allusions so esoteric, but I'm glad you enjoyed it anyway. Cheers :)
