The Big Gamble (Epilogue)

Oct 31, 2011 01:12

Epilogue:“Holy shit, how much stuff do you have?” Reid asked as he carried in the last box. He looked around his living room to see boxes of all sizes practically littering his living room floor. Not knowing where to set it, he just plopped it down on top of another ( Read more... )

This was SUCH a great read. After reading some very emotional fics, it was nice to read something light-hearted and very witty.

I loved both poker games. Your dialogue was very very strong throughout the story but the way you had the 'Oakdale cheering section' commenting on the face-down between Reid vs Noah and in the end Reid vs Luke as they kept upping the ante, was hilarious. I chuckled my way through it.
One of my fave lines:
"If he’s willing to part so easily with his boyfriend, I’m just curious. What is he an uggo? A buttaface?”

I loved the whole premise. Noah might do such a cruel, misguided thing and be totally oblivious about it.

I loved that Brad was alive in this. YAY! And that his family was focused on Luke's happiness instead of banging on about Noahs so-called merits. Lily seemed mature for a change.

And I love how this sums up how Reid is putty (snarky putty but still putty) in Luke's hands:
“Whatever you want to ask me, go ahead. If I think it’s stupid, I’ll say no and you’ll pout and I’ll say no again and you ( ... )

Aww, loved this. Even though Reid won Luke in a bet, he always respected him and made him feel special. Noah's a real ass. I'm so glad they moved in together. Very good!!!

Yay!!! so glad you got it posted for us... This was all kinds of fun and gooey LuRe goodness. I can never get enough he who shall not be named getting what he deserves and Luke finding a real man in the process! One that loves him like he deserves and treats him right... and Reid is just so adorable in all his insecure glory.
You know how much I adore your writing and this was great as usual.... Loved it ♥ and you :)

I <3 You too!

Okay. So we're sitting at #3. If Oklahoma State loses to Oklahoma and Stanford loses to Oregon, do you think it'll wind up being a rematch between us and LSU? Or do you think they'll have an undefeated Boise State jump us and play LSU in the BCS game?

I know the majority of people would be against a rematch, but....Boise State....they're schedule is just so weak.

And what happens if Oklahoma State loses to Oklahoma but Stanford runs the table for the rest of the season. Since we're #3, do you think we'd move into the #2 slot or would Stanford jump us so they could get to the BCS?

What's happening in the Sports World? Lol. What are all the professionals thinking?

I do absolutely think it would be a rematch! Oklahoma St and Stanford both have to lose a game for that to happen though... and Bama needs to win big in Auburn. If Stanford is undefeated, they get the game... but Boise won't get a shot even if they are undefeated. I agree the schedule is just to weak.
Things get really interesting if LSU loses the last game of the year at home to Arkansas....since their only loss has been to Bama.
See, THIS is why they need a 8 team playoff system. Plus, then you don't have to wait a month after conf. championship games to see who the national championship game. BCS just needs to change the format!
