HA!
I can identify with Chris on the math thing... the whole 'solve for x' deal goes way over my head and I just started understanding that. xD

"Little Baby Animal Bum? That's just… wrong."
Seriously, that was funny.
More than funny...
it was hysterical.

Well, to me anyway.
Bumlets is absolutely ADORABLE. And he likes Dutchy which is just... aw... cute!

Alex is absolutely ADORABLE. xDD

You are seriously my hero.

This was the BEST thing I have ever read. Newsies slash or otherwise. I feel like I learned something--and I could see it all happening in my mind. Dutchy/Chris and Bumlets/Alex and all of that. Brilliant.

*beams*

I love this so FREAKING much. Tremendus job.

Bravo.

CUE APPLAUSE!!

AWW. So glad that ended with me giggling wildly. Nick! and his revenge! and "LESS TALKING MORE KISSING" and EVERYONE FOUND LOVE
wait
except richard
hmm
epilogue! ONWARD.

..that was a major, major downer.
unless the next chapter involves dutch/bumlets snuggling in a hospital bed.. i just don't know.. i just don't know.

WAAYYNNEE!

OH NO!!
DAMMIT RICHARD YOU DRUNK **

dutchy and bumlets.. adorable.. drunken specs.. adorable (somehow).. lonely CJ.. amusing.
i realize my reviews and comments are redundant. it's just that every chapter reinforces these feelings. siigh.

to like.. bond.. or whatever.. ah, rich.
ok CJ is definitely my favorite right now. i just love how you guys are juggling the conflict and the comic relief so deftly. CJ has always been comic relief and i love that, especially his current line of awful dates. like Sam. HA.
i see your point about bumlets being the gary stu - is he going to start writing song lyrics now, too? oh JEEZ.
not that it would make me love him any less.
not even close.

oho. here's the major conflict. sigh. i guess it had to come along eventually.. and a good conflict it is. and the awkward/firstlove dutchy/bumlets? again, simply adorable.

"right, and i appreciated the DVD."
oh cj.. cj, cj, cj, please come and be my best friend and set me up with "brothers" !
-
"boy. is it hot."
and CJ's persistent energy..
i love this.
-
"I just know that you're… You're the song that's been stuck in my head for months now. Longer maybe. But it's like I never learned the words, just hummed along, and now I know it by heart."
oh wow. that is the sweetest thing. i'm going to have to remember that.. well put, soo romantic. ;)
-
swoon swoon swoon x 100. especially eager-to-please-alejandro. !! homg. YOWZA!
unfortunately my allotted reading time for the night is over. breaktime! i'll be back, cause i'm HOOKED.
with love,
keza

uptown boyz? totally greasy. i mean you've got jack AND race. yes, race indeed. mixing his liquors, heavy tipping, greasy, alcoholic.. race. and don't i love it.
haha. and the "what"
"..i didn't say anything."
snodgrass? HA.
ohh, blink. so nonchalant.. SO not subtle.. well done.. well done.
what a disaster!
the uptown boyz are a walking disaster. except that i'm kind of in love with race, naturally.

ohmygoodness. the slash. the nick and CJ unsuccessful scheming. (umm they were all love songs.. CJ!!) the awkwardness between adorable alejandro and insufferable chris. but mainly the scheming. and nick's creepiness. ohh, the scheming.
-
is that what they say in real life? buddies? pals? hee. that makes me think of the summary of this story, which also makes me chuckle.
-
oh, BS. dutch totally likes bumlets and we all know it. it's just that he's too much of a BRAT to have anything come of it now, or ever. specs! SPECS! we need an intervention.. NOW.
-
oh ok also why do i have the feeling that the 'cute' story about alejandro and chris (fluff and press backlash) that everyone was gushing about is TOTAL FORESHADOWING!? hmm? yeah. that's what i THOUGHT.
