Fifty Snapshots of a Descendant of Achilles

"Accuse
As helpful as Hope had been in the battle against the plague from Pandora's Box, and as pleasant an abstract concept she was, the others couldn't help but find her the fault of the annoyingly hopeful high Archie had been in for at least a week after the fight at the reservoir."
That one, to me, seemed to be the funniest and I do agree with pretty much the entire story. It was funny, enlightening and believeable. Good job on this one!

Strangely enough, I think 'Accuse' was one of the words I had the hardest times trying to write a sentence for, so I'm glad it worked out in the end :) Thanks very much, and I'm glad you thought it was good. And I swear I'll get around to reviewing your story eventually -- I've so far been putting off reading other people's long fics until I start mine because I don't want to subconsciously copy anyone. -

Very funny. It sounds so much like Archie and the way he thinks (to the best of my knowledge, or at least they way he acts which could be how he thinks right???). Anyways I liked it a lot.Author's response
Thanks :) I'm glad you think I got the characterization right for the most part, as it was something I was really worried about and trying hard to nail. -

Loved that one, since I found Hope herself rather annoying and wondered just how much it would affect Archie. Then again, there were all pretty neat. I really like the references at the bottom.Author's response
Thanks, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who found her a little tedious after awhile :) I'm really glad you like the footnotes as well, as I really enjoy writing them up and it's nice to know that people like reading them and, in some cases, are learning things as well. -

"Change
Love it, i laughed for an hour ( thus resulting in my little sister confirming the fact that im crazy, but im not). Your right, with out Herry of Theresa there they probebly would have had to count there change to catch a bus.Author's response
Thanks, both for the comment and that you found it funny :) I generally don't do humour very well, so it's nice to hear that it kind of worked in a way. -

lol thats very Archie...you got the character down really well...i can't really choose which one's my favorite, though...maybe you should do something like that for the other characters too? just a suggestion.Author's response
Thanks! I'm really big on characterizing character's properly, so I'm really really really glad it the fic actually sounds like Archie. As for the others, I'm doing some brainstorming on the theme words of another set for Neil, but I'm not sure if I'll do everyone in the end. I did Archie first because he's the one I have the most ideas about concerning background and character, but we'll see :) It's nice to know that people want to see more, so thanks again! -

Whenever someone asked him about why he never unzipped his favourite blue sweater, he always muttered something about just liking it that way and leaving it at that, though the truth was that he'd never been able to get the zipper unstuck and he damn well wasn't going to ask anyone for help with something like that.
