Why This Must Be Read: A large part of the pleasure of this story is just how well the author nails the distinctive character voices, with Kelly and Nathan hanging out and bickering and just being themselves, over pizza. I alternately want to strangle, laugh at, and ruffle Nathan's mess of hair here (a sure sign that the author has captured the core essence of the character for me - as one of the other commenters said, "God bless that obnoxious little shit") and cheer on Kelly's accent and blunt attitude and awesomeness. This short story is funny and reads like a missing scene from the show.
