Perry should never have made Harry go undercover, even if it was supposedly one of the easiest assignments ever. Nothing Harry is involved in ever stays easy. Plus, both Harry and Perry are so in denial that it can probably be seen from space. Harry/Harmony, Harry/Perry, minor dubcon btw Harry/OC. Same rating and behavior as the film (meaning gratuitous violence, h/c, language and kissing). FYI: the Avenues are a gang that have been present in Glassell Park since the 1950s. There’s your obligatory trivia for the day.
R, 18,000 words.
“My safe word is ‘fuck off‘,” Harry said.
“That’s a phrase, and it’s not that safe,” Perry said.

Date: 2010-06-20 10:02 pm (UTC)AUGH. That bit was perfection.
The whole thing was just so great, even if extreme h/c isn't always my thing, that I was honestly just going through a sequence of *heartclutch*, read a line, *heartclutch*, read a line, *heartclutch*, and on and on. KKBB is for me a perfect canon, and this fic is just lovely as all hell. The kiss is so well deserved by the time it arrives, and so enjoyable.

Date: 2010-06-20 10:25 pm (UTC)May Hapless Harry's good luck/bad luck never change -- it's such a defining part of his character.
I enjoyed the switch up on the POV -- instead of Harry's narration we got to climb into Perry's for a change. Fun.
Good job. I laughed, I winced, I wanted to feed them both cookies at the end.

Date: 2010-06-21 01:23 am (UTC)When Perry dragged him upright and out of the party, Harry was sporting the noticeable beginnings of a boner.
“You are one confused little monkey,” Perry said.
“Ficus,” Harry said immediately. Heeeeeeeeee!
“You have the ass of a sixteen year old track star,” Perry said. Preach it, Perry.
Harry wandered aimlessly through the house, touching surfaces like they were something new and fascinating. Fingertips were brushed along walls, furniture, countertops. The look on his face was ecstatic wonder. He was obviously getting something out of every encounter, something that should have been ridiculous but managed to come off as sensual and evocative. He rubbed his face and most of his upper body along the back of the couch like a cat, eyes distant with some inner rapture.
Perry would take another bullet before saying so, but it was beautiful. Harry like that was beautiful. He felt a moment of self loathing for thinking so, even though it had little to do with Harry’s maleness. It had more to do with Harry’s Harryness. It was the penultimate version of the person who fished moths out of pools, who saved damsels in distress, who tried to breathe life back into near-strangers lying in the street. This was bad, this was the fucking worst scenario involving Harry that Perry could imagine, because Harry was damn near helpless when he was perfectly sane and sober, and suddenly he was wandering around Perry’s house ten times as helpless but also beautiful and begging to be touched. Oh, boys. And the ending!
Oh, I just want to chuck Harry under the chin and tell him everything will be okay, sweet boy. Because he wants so much for people to see how amazing Harmony and Perry - and even Violet! - are, and he's so earnest about it.

Date: 2010-06-21 01:47 am (UTC)Some favorite moments: every time Harry says he'd do anything for Perry. Ficus. Jackanapes. Violet and Bunny. Harry-sized cat!! Flowers for Violet. Blushing! Unicorn. Harmony totally knows. :grins:
A couple of tiny things. Some of your contraction apostrophes are backwards. Yeah..I don't even know - A) how they do that, B) why I noticed, or C) why I kept looking for 'em. Also, penultimate means next to last. That's my favorite brain-o besides bussed for cleared tables or sent by bus when it actually means kissed - makes for hilarious mental pictures. :mentally pictures Dean bussing tables: :giggles: (again)
Thanks for the fabulous read!
ETA: I figured I should give an apostrophe example, and isn't it just typical that the one I chose isn't a contraction, but rather a possessive. Whatever! :) Here 'tis: Harry‘s voice took on an edge of panic.

Date: 2010-07-06 03:44 am (UTC)LOL! That should have been on the DVD case. I love it.
The contraction apostrophes - bane of my existence. I cannot figure out why Microsoft Works does that. I usually catch them as I'm writing, and sometimes the conversion to html or htm at upload will fix most of it. UGH.
Aha! Good point! You can blame the 'bussed' problem on most folks who have worked in restaurants. It ruins your grammar for life. "I thought I told you to bus those tables." "Shut up, I already bussed those tables, you're blind." "You're the worst busser ever." XD
We all know Dean would kiss tables if it would embarass Sam...

Date: 2010-07-06 04:08 am (UTC)I think Word/Works is out to get people. A bunch of opening quotation marks on the J2 I just beta read fell down, and sat at the bottom on the letter to their right. Weird!
Focused/focussed always gets me. I have to spell check every time.
AAAHHHAAAAA!!! And arrange for video, for later replays of the bitchface!

Date: 2010-06-21 07:56 pm (UTC)I thought that the best line in this was when Perry reflect on Harry's amazing luck for someone so unlucky. It really sums the character up for me.
Also you're dialog is epic :)
Thank you so much for sharing this.

Date: 2010-08-15 11:02 pm (UTC)It would mean a ton to me if you wanted to listen to it and let me know what you think - I don't even know if you're into podfic, but I appreciate you letting me record this. It was a blast, loved it more reading it aloud, and I hope I did it justice! I will post it in a few days, but am happy to change anything if you think I missed the boat on anything. Thanks....

Date: 2011-05-11 06:50 am (UTC)I love your Harry & Perry voices, and ultimately defenseless stony Perry is against the puppy-dog charms of Harry. It doesn't hurt that Harry looks like he does (!), but in the end it's his personality (every little usually irritating thing about it) that is Perry's kryptonite. \o/
