Ya know, I just started pilfering through fictionpress tonight, despite having been a member for months now, and I think this is the best initiation story I could have hoped to find. It's funny and light, short and to the point. I really like it. Given, I don't have much to compare with here as far as original stories go, but I enjoyed it tremendously. Awesome job.

Oh yes, I do like that ending. Much better than the one I last saw. _ You definitely seem to have worked out what Gabe really did and found a humorous/sarcastic way to end the thing decisively without it being too rushed or too long.

Excellent! :-)
