Disclaimer: I don’t own RENT.

This story will contain a female OC. She will be a main character. She also will not be “involved” with either Mark or Roger. Ever. She’s there to bring them together and be cute. Seriously, we promise. She won’t boink the boys.

Updating so often is very, very good. This story makes Marla very, very happy.

Okay, this may or may not go over your head, but I loved Roger being all "it's just pretty theft" because it reminded me of Firefly, which is possibly the greatest show in the history of time.

i wish i had friends like Mark and Roger in the weight room. my friends actually wanted to lift weight. i'm like...what is wrong with you?? and this: “Is that like, the Roger Davis girlfriend discount? Half the effort if I mention you upfront?” I grin at him. was one of my favorite lines. hillarious.

Aww yay for Mark randomly deciding to go bowling. And Roger being so bad at it! I'm better at bowling than Roger and that's saying a lot. i've been known on occasion to bowl a 13... i just found that so amusing. And Mark thinking the bowling shoes were cool i'm picturing Mark walking down the street in the bowling shoes and falling on his ass. Those things are slippery, man.

“What’s up with Molly?” I ask him, remembering her reaction to me that I found

Pfft. Participating in gym is for freshman. The only thing I did was soccer because it's wicked fun. ^_^

Aww, Harry/Ginny. I used to think her little crush was cute, until they actually got together. It seemed so sudden and forced. But I shall rant about that another time.

I've never read Perks of Being a Wallflower, but some of my friends swear by it. They keep telling me it's Catcher in the Rye for the new generation... which makes me even less likely to read it, since I can't stand Catcher in the Rye. One of my friends made me a mix tape with 'Asleep' on it when I was a freshman, which introduced me to The Smiths. Maybe they stole it from the book, haha.

Thanks as always. ♥

haha. yea, i always do soccer but this year me and my friends have the weird, retard gym that you can only have if you're in the first lunch because for everyone else it's a non-existent period. if that makes absolutely no sense to you i'll explain that. but anyways, we get really shitty activity selection cause our class is so small. at the moment we've taken up badmitton, and fuck, we've fallen in love with it. me and my friend who's coming to college with me next year wanna find a badmitton team to play on there. our love of badmitton is really sad... haha

OMG water thief! At my ma's work the vendor guy left out a whole bunch of water and she and a fellow employee took them...she got a 3 day no pay suspension, and the other person got "a stern talking to"

anyway, another great chapter. I love it how Roger can't bowl...but can play ski ball, hehe. And the mix tape?! that may quell the little 'Must have Mark/Roger NOW' people!

TA! ^_^

[the_frauleinfic]

Aww boo. That sucks for your mom. I used to steal water from the vending machines while they were stocking them, since they were always wide open after gym class with like, crates of water all around. It was seriously an open invitation. I never got caught, though. I guess that's a very good thing. ^_^

Just like Roger, I can't bowl, but I totally kick ass at skee ball. I go bowling for the shoes.

Thanks for reading. <3

Oh oh oh this chapter had some many moments that I want to comment on. I'm sure I'll miss a few, but I shall attempt anyways. Roger looking through Mark's bag? Priceless! And I loved how Mark just totally didn't care, he was all "Oh well, if you want I guess.." I was thinking the same thing as Mark, "What is he looking for?" And I was curious as to what Roger was doodling on Mark's notebook but then I forgot about it, so how fun was it to read about Roger's drawing later in the chapter of "Luke" and the phone number. What a way for Roger to give Mark his phone number! I love it! And the water "drinking game" in the weight room..haha those boys; the general banter between Mark and Roger makes me consistently laugh

[the_frauleinfic]

We've made Roger a very touchy-feely sort of person with people he cares about, and he's also starting to get a little more generally open as well. So you're not reading too far into it, that's exactly what's happening! :)

Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it! ♥

[cynical_end]

I'm really really REALLY loving the frequent updates! :D And I love this story so much.

[the_frauleinfic]

Haha, I've got nothing else to do, and I'm having a lot of fun with this story. So I've been going a little crazy. I'm enjoying taking a break from school. So thank you for reading!

[teh_dale]

Hehe...Roger bowls like I do! And I can't even play Skee-ball well to make up for it

[the_frauleinfic]

Hearing characterization compliments from you makes me smile so hard, because I always love how you represent Mark and Roger.

Mix tapes are amazing. I personally absolutely suck at making them, but I'll still make a pathetic attempt once in awhile for a buddy. (blank_stares, on the hand, makes amazing mix CDs.) ^_^

I'm on an updating kick, what can I say? The further we get in this story the more fun I have. I seriously can't wait to write all the M/R things we have planned.

Again, thanks so much, Dale. You know we love you. ♥♥
