Wonderful!

Thank you! I had a lot of fun writing it. Glad you enjoyed.

Eeeeeeexxscellent! Oh, the mid-90s obsession about family values, often trumpeted by people who ended up being in situations like this one... hehe! Peter's jealousy feels perfectly real. Great job! :D

[ozwich]

I'm glad you picked up on that. I always roll my eyes when someone runs on this platform cos I can just imagine what's really going on.

Nathan can be forgiven tho, since we all get so much out of his 'values' lol.

Thanks for reading and your kind words!

Srsly, that was the lamest part of the 90s by far. Really, I don't think that rap music / the underinvolvement of Gen X in civic life / Marilyn Manson / whatever your own particular bogeyman was really caused you to cheat on your wife while prosecuting Clinton / go to the same high-end whores in DC that everyone else was / hit on teenage boys....

Y'know, that's make a really interesting AU - what if Nathan stopped the bomb, got better in time to take his Congress position and not lose Heidi, was still fucking Peter blind every chance he could, and then got found out? Hmm. I smell a leaked sex tape... ;D

(edited 'cause I say "seriously" too much, srsly...)

[ozwich]

That idea's taking me back to my West Wing days. I did a couple about Josh and Sam being found out.
Hmm.... may have to drag them out of the closet so to speak.

Welcome to the fandom. I liked this.

Praise from one of my favourite authors, thank you so much!

Whee! A perfectly mischevious Peter. And jealous too!

Liked this: Goddamit, Peter thought. I’m your brother, for chrissakes. That’s our look. You haven’t said a word to me all night, and now you’re all over this creep like he’s your new best friend.

And this too: “I know what you were getting,” Peter snapped. “Problem is, I haven’t been getting any at all.

Well done!

[ozwich]

Thank you! I loved the idea of Peter being totally mischievous and Nathan not being able to resist, to the point of risking his career for it.

I think you've managed to capture both Petrellis perfectly in this piece.

“Well, you’re not giving me money,” Nathan replied flippantly. “Offer me 50 grand.”

is definitely one of my favourite lines.

Please keep writing!

Thank you! Glad you liked the fic, esp since it was yours that got me writing it.
