Wheeeee! I really adored this, and I agree 100% that it is really cool when characters we hear about (real or fictional) are themselves fun... I guess it gives us more to relate to, really.

Also this:

"Do you not understand the meaning of no?" Peter asked, leaning back, not terribly concerned. "I know the word in several languages. Did you know the Romans didn't even have a word for 'yes'?"

"Did you know the Romans used frescoes of genitalia to ward off evil?" Neal shot back.

Fanfic is so totally educational! I am lost within websites of Roman Genitalia now ... send help!!
