This was excellent, from the very first word. As soon as I saw it was finally posted I was all KICKYFEET and YAY and decided to devote the rest of my evening to it immediately.
You write Kon amazingly well, just perfect perfect perfect. I loved him here, wanting so badly to make friends, being adorable and clever and completely CLUELESS in turns.
The identity of the murder victim was so much more poignant for the meeting with Connor in the hallway. I had an image of this bright, happy kid in my head, and I was hoping Kon had made a new friend when... It really hit me like a sucker-punch.
I am still grinning like a loon that Tim showed up as Tim Wayne, snobby Gotham socialite, and at how Kon had absolutely no idea what to do with him. Also, I was going to vaguely threaten you for sequels, but I see you have admitted that there will be some. I AM VERY GLAD, BECAUSE I AM JUST AS CONFUSED AS POOR KON. Damn confusing Bat-brats.
JAKE. He was lovely and adorable and YAY.
I could really go on for years, here, because it's so SO fabulous, but I really need to go to bed now, so I'll stop.
