Eeeeeeeeee! This is adorable! I love Wolfe's deliberate distancing of himself from any of that messy "overemotionalism", and how it all comes through so clearly in his thoughts anyway. I love Archie's attitude and snark. I love Saul's protectiveness of Archie--everything from jumping in to get the guy who beat Archie up (and refusing payment), to shepherding Archie safely home, to keeping Orrie from sitting at his desk--so perfect!

The whole thing is a brilliant little gem and I'm so glad you decided to go for it, rusty or no.
