Thanks! Pete's one of my favourites, actually, probably because I think there's a little deranged serial killer in us all and Pete is so civilized it just contrasts even more. The gun worries me D: (They say if you introduce one in the first act...)

Fantastic! I love your style here, and you've really captured Pete's POV.

feeling like a giant kid in a grown-up's suit

Perfect.

Thanks! That's always been the way I've felt about Pete, especially since VK has such a baby face.

Thanks! Pete seems very intelligent, but at the same time 'not all there' to me... the gun worries me, too; you know what they say about introducing one in the first act - it's like a ticking time bomb, really. And at the same time I feel so incredibly sorry for Pete :(

Very good writing. Pete have been my favorite character from day one and what a dark, twisted mind he has here. Great character-study which made me shudder. Pleasant reading. Less pleasant youngster. Love him anyway.

Thanks! Pete's definitely my favourite; for all of his creeper qualities, I can relate to him the most out of anybody at SC. Funny how that works, isn't it?

Trust me, you don't want to read Atlas Shrugged. *shrudders* It and the Twilight series (or maybe Tess of the D'Ubervilles) are up there in my least favourites.

And yes, I think Peter is definitely the most disturbingly relateable character on the show (and Peggy too, for some). It's why I like him so much, but like you, also fear for him.

Thanks for commenting!

The Fountainhead's probably the best read out of the three - AS is a behemoth D:

I haven't read Two Girls Fat and Thin, sorry to disappoint! It definitely sounds interesting, though, from your description and what I can garner on Amazon. Anything that mocks Objectivism is must-read material to me! ;)
