Aw, History Boys fic! I always have a fondness for those. Not enough of a fondness to EVER offer that fandom for Yuletide again, mind, having already matched on it THREE TIMES.
1) Picking the quotes for each section was a lot of fun -- it's a pretty wide hodgepodge of poetry and song lyrics and nonsense. (The idea was that these were 11 verses that Hector never taught them, but Scripps learned anyway.) The Tom Lehrer quote was particularly pleasing to me.
2) Rudge's cameo still makes me grin.
3) Nothing about Scripps and Posner is ever going to be easy or even particularly joyful, but their gradual fumbling into something still feels pretty real to me.
