One of my favourite things about the Punks is that Jason considers so many members of his clique to be "the kids". But it's not even really that he's just doing it because they're younger - he actually caves and gives into them, just like they were his own kids or little siblings. Despite his larger-than-life character, it shows a very human side of him that non-clique individuals would never see!

I love the atmosphere you've created in the Pearce's trailer, though. For anyone who has ever spent a fair amount of time in a trailer, you can feel the cramped living space, but it's more homey and kind. I think there's probably too many people in one small space here, but it really adds something to the togetherness and the spirit of their little party.

It's an excellent build-up, with just the right sprinkle of comic relief to spare it from being a very sad Christmas story.

And that reunion!

It's such an emotional scene - probably because Jason isn't the type to choke on his laughter like that - but it works very well. A true Christmas miracle!

Can't wait to read more about these guys! ( :
