I think I love you. No, really, I think I do.

This? Is utterly amazing crack. Coach Gideon leaving due to the "horrific" events in Boston, the "cameos" by all the characters, Spencer's emotion on the ice, the reactions of Emily and Derek, Ethan... OMG... EVERYTHING about this was awesome. It was fun and silly and yet somehow actually emotional and... *deep breath* Okay, I'm gushing now. Um... bottom line... I really liked this. In case you hadn't noticed.

Aww, I'm glad you liked it! It was so much fun to write- I spent way too much time going through the important/recurring CM characters to see who I could throw in. And then bending "reality" to my cracked!out will.

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

Seconding daylyn's words - so much love right now. Total awesome. Never, ever stop posting.

[jujuberry136]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.

Never stop posting? You'll probably live to regret those words ;P

Thanks for reading and reviewing!

I don't see how I could like to regret them, unless we're talking about zombies using the internet, in which case I marvel at the evolution of zombie thought.

Crack!fic is AWESOME. I'm so glad you liked it too!

And Dvorak is so cool. I'm going to see one of his cello concertos performed in a month, so that definitely influenced the Spencer's song choice...

NEVER apologize for gushing enthusiasm. It's awesome (from my end at least). Thanks so much for reading and reviewing! I'm glad you enjoyed the fic :)

Awww, poor Spencer, no gold!!

This was a fun read and I liked all the guest appearances.

[jujuberry136]

Considering Spencer wasn't really a medal contender at all, a silver's pretty awesome :)

Glad you enjoyed the guest appearances, I had a lot of fun trying to figure out how many CM folks I could toss into one cracked!out fic.

Thanks again for reading and reviewing!

OMG Reid won a silver medal!!!11!!

It's only with great restraint and by reminding myself this isn't actually that I'm not jumping around.

Apart from the sheer awesomeness of this (how can you make crackfic so brilliant? This definitely takes second place after you giant lizard in TTHCTBG) what I love is:

- Gideon is and always will be a douche
- The Unbreakable Spencer Reid! No matter what, you can't bring him down: he's going to survive and rise again
- "Hi Mom!" oh, Reid! How cute can someone be?
- the massive amounts of affection for him you can just sense in Emily and Derek: I wanna be a part of that group hug!

Only a nitpick: I think Sarah Hughes won gold in the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, not Turin 2006 (which I'm sure were won by Shizuka Arakawa)

[jujuberry136]

You're totally right about Sarah Hughes winning in Salt Lake! Crap! I got confused as Emily Hughes competed in Turin...*headdesk*

Fixed now. Thanks for the heads up!

I couldn't possibly let Gideon off the hook, could I? As you say, he is and always will be a douche.

Spencer Reid will take all the shit the world throws at him, steel himself, and totally Reidalanche you until you acknowledge the sheer awesomeness that is him. At least, that's the way I see him...

Thanks for reading and reviewing! Glad you enjoyed this too!

I only caught it because obviously Turin 2006 ws a big deal here in Italy but mostly because I was totally blown away by Shizuka Arakawa's performance on "Nessun Dorma" from Turandot: almost as overused a music as Carmen but she was just amazing. I taped it and still ocasionally rewatch it! *is huge nerd*

Me too! "What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger" should be his motto. Crappy childhood, depressing job, kidnapping, torture and drug addiction, betraying mentor and even anthrax poisoning... and he stll goes on, tougher than before! How can someone not love him?
