Reactions and Reviews

1993

I loved the imagery of Blake having a coronary over finding Avon and Vila playing "bumpety-bump" in his bed. The bit about the door — with Vila pulling on one side and an oblivious Blake pulling on the other side had me in hysterics. What choreography. [1]

2013

this is a hilarious one where avon is like 'hey vila, you know what would be really hot? if we had sex in BLAKE'S room'.

this is not because he fancies blake, btw - although there is a brief nod towards the possibility in vila's POV - but because blake is the boss and would not really like to know that avon and vila were having sex in his cupboard. vila is not keen - but while they're there really gets off on the danger and avon being nice to him.

there's also some really nice relationshippy dialogue, with avon sort of unbending a bit even as he is mocking vila and forcing him to do things he doesn't want to do (but also does). it is very sweet and nice, as well as being funny.

anyway, i really enjoyed this.[2]
