Er, okay, or not! OpenID doesn't seem to be working for me right now, so I'll just post some of my thoughts here!
You're writing from the POV of my three favourite characters, so yay at that first of all! And, IMHO, all of them are really IC, but at the same time you've added an interesting twist to each of them. So I'm defintiely excited to see what happens next (after the cliffhanger...)!

My possibly favourite line to date: "At least let me make you some tofu!" LOL

Feel free to use this as an official comment post, sometimes blogger is silly and misbehaves.

They're my three favorite characters too, so I've been trying to figure out a way to get them into one fic for awhile.

The next part should be up... maybe tonight?

Mmmmh, the Effy/Katie interaction is starting to get pretty hot!! :D
I like how Naomi walks in on them and I think your description of how it makes her feel is excellent (and sad).
I'm looking forward to the next parts!

I really enjoyed this. It stands out from everything else in this fandom because it really doesn't ... turn pretty, at any fucking point, at all. Not many people are willing to toe that line.

That's what I do, yeah? ~Toe the line~.

love love love the ending. you should so write a sequle or something because your style of writing is pretty awesome and this story plot is to good to let go.

Thanks for reading!

I don't think I'll write a sequel, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I really, really liked this. Writing first person POV is quite tricky but you wrote it so well; loved the fact that the story was continued with their own perspectives.

My overarching thought is that I think Tony would be pleased that all went down on his bed.

Anyway, yay! I liked it a lot. I think Katie's voice was particularly spot on, especially when discussing Naomi's clothes haha ♥

Tony definitely approves, he's only sad that his duvet wasn't there to watch.

And thanks! It was a tough experiment, so I'm glad that at least some of it worked. :)

Two thumbs up - I loved this. Especially the Naomi freaking-out-and-masturbating-in-the-bath part.
