Whatcoloristhesky: Damn, that was good! I really enjoyed your take on how Darry works out the lessons in life, from dirty pants, to his kid brothers, all the way to his final decision to be a guardian. I loved the wording. It was powerful. This was the best line, in my opinion: "I couldn’t replace my parents, I couldn’t replace any thing I’d ever said to anyone, and I couldn’t replace my actions." Real words to live by, no matter who you are or where you come from. Excellent job, keep on writing!
Two-Bitty: I thought that was an awesome story! You don't see a Johnny and Two-Bit story too often. And Two-Bit with the book...man, talk about your irony! I liked the under currents you had going on in this one. Johnny and his father, Two-Bit and his father, fathers in general. It was great that they just hung around like that, despite the mess of Two-Bit's room. I love how random he was when it came to cleaning it, too. Keep up the great work!

Two-Bitty: I really enjoyed it! It was so accurate, too, as far as kids' bedrooms go, hahah. Yeah, my bedroom is nothing like that . . . ;D
Tens: Another great story! I couldn't imagine what on earth Steve could have found. At first I had thought maybe Soda would get excited over the party stuff or something. Dumpster diving: the frugal man's way to shop, hahah. And yeah, nice touch having Ponyboy remind Two-Bit about his knife.
