I absolutely adore "Hero Worship." I think it's one of the smartest things I've read all year. Okay, it's only May, but still! I absolutely hands-down hero worship your Charlie. Just an excellent character study. The tension with the kids and Al's sexuality is so good, as is James not being as dumb or homophobic as he looks from the get-go. Krum's one line about how he grew up is just chillingly good. *swoons a bit more over Charlie* Oh, and I know it's been commented on a million times, but James telling Charlie that there are lost tribes out of all human contact that knows he sleeps with boys? Priceless and too, too funny.
