Lol - you guys are frakkin' nuts.

True love," Bill said, cupping her cheek. Her ass cheek.

Awesome. Like, totally.

And La Isla Bonita? OMG, flashbacks to cruisin' to the lake in my Suzuki Samurai with the bimini top, sporting a Panama Jack tee and a denim miniskirt. Fer sure.

Oh, you know how I love frakkin' nuts.

Yeah, that ass cheek thing was totally me going along, writing, then realizing that I'd just written something that was fairly inconvenient, and making an amend... best part about writing crack is that things can just flow and it doesn't f*cking matter. Oh, he can't reach the cheek on her face? Oh, just have him do some grabass.

And WOW.... I hope that story about the Suzuki is true.

Hilarious.

And dude. Alum Creek Beach, where the water stained your swimsuit and the "sand" was the texture of kitty litter. The Samurai was teal, the tee pink, the miniskirt acid washed and the music a mixed tape including the likes of La Isla Bonita, OMD's Forever Live and Die and The Bangles' September Gurls. I can almost smell the Hawaiian Tropic tanning oil ...

Like, ohmigod, totally. Was your, like, bitchin' miniskirt like, totally acidwash? Because that like, would be, like, totally awesome.

We are frakkin' nuts. I'm so sure. And it's the best way to be.

The ass cheek thing had me ROFL when I read it. Crack, indeed.

OMG you did NOT! *reads again* Oh yes, yes you did. And for it, you totally win. This is insane and brilliant and incredibly clever. So many wonderful bits, but I think my favourites were...

1. the contents of the Argentina

2. Bill wishing he had a nice black fedora (I wish he had one, too.)

3. Bill realized he'd been bending her over his arm in his hard-hitting Gemenese gancho for a minute too long.
&
Laura was left staring after him as he ran for the hatch. She called out to him, reminding him that he was still naked. He thanked her, and put his clothes on.
&
"True love," Bill said, cupping her cheek. Her ass cheek. Because he was still behind her.
I swear I nearly died laughing at those.

4. Fangirl posse cameo

5. Emo Helo (ROFL)

Also, I am still laughing over them getting married. Not looking at anyone in particular. ;)

Oh yes. Yes we did. You are correct. We are certifiably insane.

flamingo55 insisted upon them getting married. I tried to tell her it didn't matter, they already frakked and were living lives in sin, but somehow, you know... in the end, it really seemed right to have them get hitched.

I loved hearing about your favorite parts, and I'm thrilled that you enjoyed this story so much. :)

YAY! Sorry to keep the Seekrit Project of Seekritness, um, Seekrit, but we wanted it to be a surprise. :)

1. That was one of the more fun things to write.

2. OMG me too.

3. How much do I love that you went 50-50 on the quoting? So much.

4. The fangirls, they are everywhere.

5. If he can't be dead, he should be emo.

And WHY is everyone looking at me for the marriage thing? How do you know I didn't have to talk icedteainthebag out of writing in tulle bridesmaid dresses? In seafoam green?

((((Zaleti)))) So glad we could Make Laura Happy with this fic. :)

"Borderline... feels like I'm going to lose my mind," Bill breathed, gritting his teeth. Then he shook his head, shedding his aroused stupor and reverting into Admiral mode. "And baby, I perish the thought of ever leaving, I never would."

Then, he left.

This shit cracks me up.

hat was a lie. That ship was a sitting duck, and he knew it. It was old and slow, and carried a bunch of useless cargo the Fleet didn't need - mostly 8-track tapes of disco bands, books about teenage vampires, and parachute pants.

Oh Gods.

While she did love it when he read to her veeeeeery slowly, right now she wanted more than just metaphorical frakking.

My icon speaks for me. I loved this. Thank you for distracting me from dull schoolwork.

Your icon rocks. So glad we could help you procrastinate. Lord knows we blew off enough actual work writing. :)

Thanks for reading, and I'm thrilled we cracked you up with our...um, crack. :)

Heeeeee Yes. So happy you loved our crack. Always willing to provide a distraction :)

It's 3 AM, and I can't stop laughing.... uproariously. Someone knocked on the wall so I could shut up. I can't. My sides. My ribs. OMFG I can't breathe. WIN WIN WIN WIN.

How lame am I for singing every line? Oy.

flamingo55 February 19 2010, 08:31:25 UTC
Not lame, more like OSSUM.

So glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!

NAY, YOU ARE NOT LAME. YOU ARE AWESOME.

I hope we didn't get you tossed out of your accomodations last night.

When I read "crack", I did not expect this much crack.

flamingo55 February 19 2010, 08:54:52 UTC
There can never be too much crack. :)

Hee. I didn't say it was a bad thing!

"Holiday," Laura demanded to the room full of Gaius groupies. "Celebrate."

This made me LOL.

Every time Laura demands that people celebrate, an angel gets its wings.
