!!!! HOW DID I NOT KNOW YOU WERE IN THIS FANDOM? What is my everything! I am so excited! And ahh, thank you so much! I am delighted you enjoyed!

Oh man, I AM SO STOKED. GK is just -- I am glad there is a fandom, but even if there isn't one I think I would keep coming back to it and rambling about it and probably writing about it, too. But seriously, finding fellow fans is one of my favorite things about fandoms, regardless of fic, you know? Being like, OH GOD YOU LOVE THIS TOO? REALLY? I AM SO HAPPY!

Huh, actually, now that I think of it, GK kind of reminds me of TSN in a way -- it just strikes such a raw chord and has such depth of feeling, though obviously it deals with VASTLY different subject.

“You’re incorrigible,” Nate says, fighting the flush rising in his cheeks. “I didn’t mean to - it’s wasn’t a kiss. Shut up.”

“I can’t help that I’m irresistible,” Ray says, mock-apologetically, making a moue and fluttering his lashes, and Nate snorts. Ray grins at him and holds out the water jug again, and Nate doesn’t want to shiver as Ray’s rough fingers brush the corner of his mouth.

\o\ /o/ \o/ YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES! \o/

RAY IS THE BEST PIRATE EVER. AND BRAD IS HIS GRUMPY FIRST MATE. ♥ COFFEE ♥ AND NATE IS NOT EVEN GOING TO KNOW WHAT EVEN HIT HIM BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO BE THE MOST AWESOME PIRATES EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER.

ETA: NOOOO, I get this all cleaned up just in time for it not to be a threesome for the threesome fest! BUT I LOVE THREESOMES. Hmm. FINE YOU WIN, BECK, I WILL CONSIDER A SEQUEL. *shakes fist*

BB, I feel like I talk about this subject a lot, but there is NEVER, never a bad time for a Ray/Brad/Nate threesome. Go with that instinct ALWAYS. IT IS A GOOD ONE. \o/

Go with that instinct ALWAYS. IT IS A GOOD ONE. \o/

Yes! This! Yes!

[novembersmith]

YOU ARE ALL SUCH ENABLERS.

[novembersmith]

I am with you on the Ray/Brad/Nate thing. O-T-FUCKING-3, YO. Just, ARGH I HAVE SO MANY THINGS TO BE WRIIIITIIIING. DOOOOOM.

Oh, well. *rolls up sleeves, attacks keyboard*

Also, TY SO MUUUCH EEEEEEE! I am so glad you enjoyed Captain Ray-Ray, who is ever-so dastardly and also dashing. NATE IS GOING TO BE SO HAPPY, SRSLY. A little dismayed, because seriously, PIRATES ARE SO UNCOUTH OMG, but also HAPPY AS FUCK. Brad and Ray in his bed at night may have some little tiny bit to do with that. :D

[laliandra]

STILL DELIGHTED. OH SULKY NATE JUST GIVE IN TO RAY HE WILL ~APPRECIATE~ YOU. HE WILL APPRECIATE YOU GOOD <3

Also the bit where Ray calls him a poor lamb :D:D:D:D

I feel like it is my duty to make sure you unleash your awesome upon the world!

[novembersmith]

HE'LL APPRECIATE YOU SO HARD YOU'LL FEEL IT FOR DAYS.

You are the best. ILU.

Heeeh! This is brilliant! Ray as a pirate, with his smell and his taunts and his disarmingly straightforward nature! Nate's honour and duty and irrepressible sense of humour! Brad's regular mutinies! (IT'S SORT OF THEIR THING!) I grinned my way through this, and I'm sure I'll be coming back to it in the future when I need a pick-me-up. :D

[novembersmith]

Brad is so long-suffering, but if Ray doesn't reappear within their set mutinying schedule, Brad flies the flag and goes after him and wreaks holy hell on the Caribbean until he can find Ray again and get him on board. THAT'S A TOTALLY NORMAL FIRST MATE/CAPTAIN DYNAMIC, WHATEVER. :P

Thank you for such a lovely comment, and I'm glad you enjoyed! \o/

MY FACE IS IN A PERMANENT GRIN. OH GOSH OH GOSH. Ray is the most infuriatingly charming pirate captain, aaahhhhhhhhhhh.

And ooh, Mr Fick, ooh. ;__;

[novembersmith]

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

LOL OH GOD THAT IS THE MOST APPROPRIATE COMMENT. THAT IS TOTALLY WHAT RAY IS DOING. IT STARTS OUT MOCKING AND THEN TURNS WORRYINGLY SINCERE. Because seriously. NATE IN A CRAVAT. HE CAUSES SWOONING EPIDEMICS ACROSS THE LAND AND THE SEVEN SEAS.
