Sleepless Nights - Epilogue is up
Jul 23 2008, 8:00 PM EDT Well, this is the end! I had no idea that this would end up as 12 chapters, or that anyone would actually read it, but i'm happy i finished. And now that i'm finally getting better from my cold, the romance and fluff writing is returning with a vengance lol (though the angst was fun, and i'll probably write another one down the road) Thanks for reading and thankyou for commenting (it makes my work days bareable lol) Do you find this valuable? |

Thanks so much!"He just seems like he'd be a right slob somehow lol And i can totally picture some scenario where someone would see his mess, and playfully ask him if he'd grown up in a barn, which would be followed by some characteristically sarcastic retort being thrown back at them Lol Do you find this valuable? |

He's had Emma picking up after him, not to mention two doting parents. When they live together, Noah, the military brat, will have to take care of him. Not that Luke won't try...but he's the sort that will set fire to the kitchen and turn all of Noah's underpants pink accidentally. "Noah-I have no idea how that red sock got in there!" But since he's probably very good in bed, Luke will make up for it. Hmm...fic possibilities. :) Do you find this valuable? |

He makes me think of those little kids that follow their parents around when they are little "trying" to be grown up but just making a huge mess. But i agree, i think his enthusiasm would be a bonus in other areas... They are quite a pair aren't they? lol It's like Felix and Oscar in their teens hooking up haha Do you find this valuable? |

RE: Sleepless Nights - Epilogue is up
Aug 10 2008, 2:43 AM EDT Dani, this is just amazing. I loved every minute of it. I was crying through a lot of it. As I've said before, yes I'm a guy, yes I cry, and I really don't give a fuck if you think I'm any less of a man for crying. I believe that it takes a true man to admit that he cries. All that bullshit about "you're not a real man if you cry, real men don't don't cry" is nothing more than that, bullshit. But back to the fic... great in every way. I haven't commented on every thread because I just marathon read it. It's only the second one that I've ever marathon read, the first being your own "not gay. not interested." You're a great writer, keep up the good work, like I said the only reason that I haven't commented on every chapter is because I couldn't stop reading until I got to the end. I would have been in agony if I had been reading this as you posted it, and had to wait for new chapters to be posted every so often. This is like a good book, you can't put it down until you've reached the end. MAY NUKE PREVAIL ALWAYS! Drew Do you find this valuable? |

Thankyou definitely comes to mind. I certainly don't find crying an unmanly thing (and now i'm hoping that isn't a comment in response to something in my fic - if so, I apologise) Marathon read away - It can be easier to comment on the story as a whole anyway, and i certainly find it easier to reply to. I can be just as impatient with a good book, often even flicking to the last page if there is any worry certain characters won't survive :-) Thankyou again for your fabulous comment. I'm very flattered, and yes - Nuke will prevail! Do you find this valuable? |

I certainly don't find crying an unmanly thing (and now i'm hoping that isn't a comment in response to something in my fic - if so, I apologise)Hey Dani, Just wanted to make one thing clear... You don' t need to apologize for anything at all. That thing that I mentioned about "real men don't cry" was not something that I felt coming from you in your fic at all. In fact, some of my favorite Nuke fic scenes are where the boys are letting their emotions out and often times crying together, and sometimes holding each other close or hugging. Here in the states, there is this prevailing attitude that says "men are supposed to be macho and not cry, if you cry you're just a sissy." It's the kind of bullshit line that Col. Whackjob would have fed Noah if he had seen him crying, something like "be a man, men don't cry, you're such a baby, just suck it up and deal with it." Personally, I am so sick and tired of all this macho bullshit that I see as the prevailing attitude in the American culture, although thankfully those ideals are starting to slip away, slowly but surely. Internalizing your emotions and not letting thigs go can be extremely dangerous. My godbrother was going through a difficult time at one point, his girlfriend had just miscarried their baby, she was having further health problems, and there were other things going on to further complicate their lives. He was internalizing his emotions and not letting things go, trying to "suck it up" and "be a man" because "real men don't cry" and all the stress led to a series of panic attacks. He came very close to having a heart attack and he now has damage to his heart as a result of all this. I spent a lot of time talking with him in the days after that. I like to think that my talking with him may have helped him in at least some small way. I'm running out of space here so I'll shut up and quit rambling. Again, great fic, and keep up the good work!
