Dude, thank you so much! Man, I could ramble on endlessly about my views on Patrick and his relationship with Pete and how I really do think his obsessive music tendencies translate to his relationships with people. I mean, god, it's got to be really intense to be attached at the hip to someone like Pete, especially if you don't intrinsically "get" the whys and hows of depression and crazyness, and especially if you're more comfortable with composing music than you are with people.

Sigh, I wish that a lot of the canon stuff in this weren't so rough. Unfortunately, it was really hard for me to keep track of my canon mistakes in something this huge, and I was so stressed on getting the emotional and character stuff huge that I let a lot of those kinds of mistakes slide. Oh well.

It is so cool to see you like it so much, seriously. Thank you!!

God, please do! Because I adore Patrick like crazy, but I would love some critical meta about him--fandom as a whole seems to have no problem with dissecting Pete's various problems and disorders, but there's not a lot out there about Patrick being anything other than sunshine and kittens.

Oh well.

The canon stuff that I noticed was just the whole switching up of the timeline of Hushie album/BCAU Tour/Pete and Chris' breakup/Pete's pics leaking in relation to each other, and I actually figured that it was part of your purposeful switching up of the timeline, because it really does work for the plot (making the tour the focal point of Pete's breakdown because it combines his jealousy of Patrick and Greta, his sadness over the breakdown of his friendship with Chris, and his blaming himself for the pics leaking). I think the only reason it distracted me is because that whole period of time is reaaally fascinating to me because I'm interested in the whole Pete/Chris relationship and how it ended so the timeline for that is, like, jammed into my head, but like I said. It works for the plot, so don't worry about it: it's just me. :)

And you're welcome! Thank you for writing this, because I always love your take on Pete and Patrick's relationship. I missed your fic, dude.
