E! I love this! It's really cute and funny. Instant favorite!

This story is so cute...I love it!

Magic elves wrote it :'D
And I'd probably call it 'The Personals' [like...that part in some newspapers...?]
or him and the teacher could have a drink that they both like...like Pepsi or something, and you could call it that.

I REMEMBER THAT STORY TOO. O__O But I cannot remember it's name. That story was written AGES ago.

I do remember that the construction kid's name is L-something. Luke maybe?

Okay. Really really really nice story. XD Maybe it's the purple. And Linus' confession at the end. *_*

*relieved sigh*

i was starting to miss your work. the story is so realistic. i love it. i didn't realise i was going cold turkey til you gave me another fix.

you rock! xx

when i read the title, i started singing "trust the midas touch," and i don't even know what that's from... o.o

anyway. amazing story. linus is so cute! i wanna meet someone by calling a phone dating service and then stubbing my toe on my bookshelf! that would be, like, the perfect boyfriend!

also, chuck norris is amazing.

I remember that story! I don't think it was updated in years. I think it was written by either Esquirrella or JMA...ever since those two wrote that collaboration with the cat aliens I get their stories confused. I might be wrong, though, and just guessing. I could do some browsing for you, cause I suddenly want to find that story as well.

As to your story: quite lovely. Short, cute, and to the point. I, yet again, find myself wishing your characters existed in real life. It's things like not caring enough for your shoes to match, or the constant wearing of purple that make me happy. **sigh** those dating service things. I want to sign up to one someday...I just really like first dates. The second one's okay, but the third one and onwards are hardly ever as exciting. Heh...I'll have to try that someday. I'll be like one of those people who constantly have one night stands, except it'll be first dates.

^.^ I so wished our family would wear purple all the time! I'm glad to read a xanthie story and to know you are alive ^.^

Ah! I love it! Linus (-giggle- cute name) and Charlie are cute. Charlie seems...weird; he kinda seems like someone I'd like. Damn, they're all gay, aren't they?

Linus reminds me of Ryan from High School Musical (I don't know if you've seen it...) which isn't a bad thing. He just kinda does; I think it's the glasses...and the purple thing. xD

“…How? What were you doing listening to a het dating service?”

His mouth spread into the widest grin of all, “Insomnia.”

That part was cute, and it really ended the story quite well. This story had a cute element to it; but I really liked it because it was more funny. Charlies character just makes me want to laugh.

and darn, you don't own Chuck Norris? Or the bow flex? Damn. Chuck norris would be a nice person to have; he'd kick people's asses for you. and lmfao Perky man nipples.

Hmm that story seems familiar. I'll try and do some searching and see if I can find anything :D

Chuck Norris gives me nightmares.
This was a good one, I liked the randomness and how whats-his-name-the-main-guy is so like, nonchalant...It entertained me and my insomnia, for a little while anyway.
Your little one shots always get my brain ticking over for soemthing to write, even if they doo piss me off soetimes. I guess for an author, pissedoffedness is a good thing.
HM! I feel like leaving angry messages on 1800 numbers now (thats the free ones). Calling the people that sell ice is always good, and saying like 'WHERES MY ICE! I CANT THROW AN F-ING PART WITHOUT ICE!' Is always a lugh...Im rambling now.
Good story, you've gotta be my favorite fictionpress-ee so far.

I dunno what the story is called but this one is really good!
I can especially relate to the insomnia part. -.-"

It was... kind of interesting. Honestly, it's fine un-beta'd.

And I couldn't help but thinking the whole time, "OMG I KNOW!" Except for me, IHOP is Denny's, and Dr. Pepper is a bottle of Tequila that requires 3:00am trips to 7/11 for limes.

Great job on the fluffy piece.

you're talking about. it's by izzy-chan. i forgot the title, but the summary is on the author's page.


:)

I don't know if someone has already answered your burning question, but the story is "Getting Personal" by Izzy-chan.

I have a burning question of my own, who goes to IHOP in the middle of the night and DOESN'T order pancakes?! A hater of all things breakfasty, that's who.

This oneshot made me smile. It's overall tinged with the mad silliness of sleepless nights.

Speaking of Chuck Norris, did you know he doesn't go ANYWHERE without his male prayer partner? . . . Not that there's anything wrong with that, it just strikes me as skin crawlingly creepy. I mean, "prayer partner", wtf? I, unfortunately, imagine them contorting themselves into all sorts of 'prayer positions' that they believe will somehow increase the power of their homoerotically charged prayers,

"Oh, Jesus save the godless sododmites from the sins of the flesh and-,"

"No, no Chuck-"

"Yes, prayer partner?"

"I think Je-Sus will hear our prayers better if I bend over the couch, like this," prayer partner expertly face-plants himself into the couch cushions, "and then you drape yourself over me with your face resting on my shoulder. Yeah, I think that aligning our bodies with our prayers will help speed their message to Jesus' everloving ears."

Chuck comes up behind prayer partner and clasps him, "Like this, prayer partner?"

Prayer partner moans, "Oh, Chuck . . . Jesus! I mean, Oh, Jesus . . ."

Yeah . . . this review kinda got away from me 'cause I am easily distracted by creepy Chuck Norris-prayer partner scenarios that I then feel the need to share with others. :)
