You know, I was sceptical because for some reason I am sceptical towards any Brad-slash (I know, weird, coming from one-sho-is-way-too-excited-about-troy-rps-before-it's-even-come-out-for-her-own-good) but this really drew me in. It's written in such a snappy prose style and that somehow just captured something about Brad (or the way I see Brad, heh). And the Colin Farrell thing! You had me scurrying to imdb.com, looking for 'joint ventures' until I got to the A/N at the end (duh!) -- and *screamed*! Brad is so not-slashy and so not-gay and maybe that is what, in a roundabout way, makes him slashy after all. I loved the way you wrote him as an Orlando-resister! Ah, after all these years of every man falling at Orli's feet in fanon it's like a fresh shower to have someone who can *hold his own*!!

And the references to the Lotr nuts... priceless!
