Awesome on so many levels.

(The art's really good too.)

Thank you! The art makes me so happy, despite its theme. *g*

glockgal February 7 2010, 15:50:59 UTC

Thank you so much! I hoped the art would fit in with the fic. :D

I wish I could leave a better comment now but

OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMOGMOMGOMGOMOGOMG
this is bloody brilliant

I still love George and Ringo so much, even though George is a bastard ha ha

this makes me want to pet all of them on the hand and say, "there, there, it's going to be alright." even if it isn't. Love the way the illustration styles change and how the narration comes from each of them at different times.

I hope you both create more of these, because I will totally read them. Aww, Beatleies. My first fandom. Maybe my truest fandom, ever?

Re: I wish I had my hari icon now bossymarmalade February 6 2010, 23:45:11 UTC

YAY I AM SO HAPPY YOU LIKE IT

We were like "omg will anybody else EVEN READ THIS" because it's coming from the very core of our combined Beatles love, so this comment is totally and completely wonderful to get! Thank you thank you!!

Re: I wish I had my hari icon now florence_craye February 7 2010, 01:06:32 UTC

YAY

It's funny, because sometimes I feel the Beatles fandom is so deep in my past that I'm "eh, blah that was a LIFETIME ago" and then I read something like this and ARG that last image just kills me OH RINGO and I totally fall back into it again. It never totally goes away.

It's wonderful to read/view something like this and share the core of that love with both of you. I can definitely feel it through the darkness. YAY again!

ARRRR THANK YOU SO MUCH! OMG I let Mags handle all the John and Paul parts - writing Ringo was just so much fun because HE IS SO SWEET. Ahahaha, man, I love George, he can do no wrong! Well, except maybe. XD

KJHFDSJKHFKDJFh THANK YOU FOR SUCH AMAZING FEEDBACK. OMG I never know what to except or say to feedback for fic other than *FLAIL*

TRUEST FANDOM EVAR, YESSS. ILU.

This is *fantastic.* And fantastically creepy. I love the group shot at the bottom, and George hugging his sitar, and I love how brutal they are to each other, aghghh this is delicious!!

bossymarmalade February 6 2010, 23:46:56 UTC

I love how brutal they are to each other

I TOTALLY LOVE THAT YOU SAID THIS, because we wanted the whole thing to be a balance between their obvious love and closeness and the also obvious annoyance and resentment! Thank you so much for such wonderful feedback!!

glockgal February 7 2010, 15:55:09 UTC

Mwaaaaaa thank you so much! Once it started it couldn't stop and I LOVE that you think it both brutal and delicious. EXACTLY the combination we were thinking! *LOVES*

Jesus Christ. I've never read something like THIS before.

But damn, I loved the style of this story; the tone, the mood, the dialogue, and the narrative were all so unique and worked so well together. I'm jealous!

And gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah the art. The fucking art!

bossymarmalade February 6 2010, 23:48:36 UTC

The fucking art INDEED!!!! And I'm so delighted that you enjoyed the story as well; Lori's a more talented writer than she lets on, damn her. *g* It's always a good time when I manage to ootch her into writing something, and I'm so happy other people are liking it so much! Thank you!!

glockgal February 7 2010, 15:56:31 UTC

KSJFSHDFJK I didn't think I was capable of writing something like this but once it started it JUST COULDN'T STOP. And then came the art and it was like: "Okay, I'm done for". I am so glad you think it all came together, omg BB THANK YOU FOR READING, IDEK HOW TO EXPRESS GRATITUDE. <3 <3 <3

BWAHAHAHAH skywardprodigal February 6 2010, 22:29:21 UTC

George looks from one of them to the other, then stands up, exasperated. "Well, I hope you covered your tracks, anyway," he says as he angles himself into his coat.

Re: BWAHAHAHAH bossymarmalade February 6 2010, 23:49:25 UTC

OH THAT GEORGE. *g* I am glad you enjoyed it, bb!

Re: BWAHAHAHAH glockgal February 7 2010, 15:57:05 UTC

THAT IS GEORGE FROM BEGINNING TO END, HEEE. I AM SO HAPPY YOU READ IT, THANK YOU!
