A beautiful, funny, exquisite story; more of a sparkling diamond than Satine could ever hope to be, in my opinion. I wish there was more, but I dare not ask. Brava... brava... BRAVISSIMI! ^^

Bwahahaha! This fic really had me cracking up. Gah, hilarious. Even though things were a little fuzzy here and there (then again it could just be that I haven't slept in 48 hours), I completely loved it. Gyah, slash. We need more MR slash.

^^

Wow, that was...wierd.
It wasn't really slash, it it wasn't really not.
Yep. I think I've succeeded in confusing myself.

"You can't," he finally sighed, sounding rather embarrassed. "She's out with the Duke."

"You're full of dazzling insights today, did you know?"

Haha...that cracked me up. This entire fic's full of wonderful dry humour and fun slashiness. The Argentinean rocks. XD

I Love it! I'm sure that's what all the reviews say. Seriously, this is well-written and actually original. More, more!

lol... this is very, VERY well written... not unlike, um, ALL YOUR STUFF? :p

(*rolling on floor double up in laughter, tears streaming down my face*)

oh ho, dear! Your best yet!! Oh, this is brilliant, absolutely brilliant and hysterically funny and you get both chararacter exactly right--that puppy-dog foolishness of Christian's that very few people get right. this is as close to an OMG review as I can come. (there's a word missing here or there and a couple of places where I'm confused about which "he" you're referring to, but I'll email you directly about those when I've given the story a re-read.)

And kudos for addressing that whole issue of Satine spending all her time rehearsing w/Christian. I love that you've created a story that takes places within the timeframe of the movie but is still completely original. And hysterically funny (to me, anyway). And a great contribution to the underrepresented sub-genre of m/m slash in this catagory. (Ignore any flames by the way).

BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO

*stands up, sits down, and bursts into hysterical laughter*

Oh my Baz, that was bloody perfect. I love your characterization of them both; the Argentinean’s fire-eating comment was particularly effective, as was his monologue. And of course the kiss itself, just like the one on the night Christian first arrived. I love the way you write the tango dancer. He’s very driven and very passionate, just as he is in the film and how I’ve always imagined him to be.

Oh, and this line: “I've tried rehearsing with Nini, but nothing ever comes of that” – let’s just say I had to remember to breathe because the giggles were in abundance.

And Christian! The squeaks! The squawks! The studying of the pen! *giggles insanely* You keep him his naïve, adorable self, but with the shock at the Argentinean’s actions, he became all the more real. I love that he kept repeating Satine’s whereabouts; it just seemed so perfectly apt to his character. And his embarrassment that the dance scene is passionate! *dies laughing*

Of _course_ none of it is real.

Of course.

You wrote them both excellently, and made it FUNNY. I laughed from the first sentence to the last.

Thank you, love.
