    That was short but extremely interesting. I wasn't expecting it. Drabbles leave you...confused. No, no, more like wanting more. I want more. xD. This was good. You make amazing layouts and you're an amazing writer.

    Ooh, this looks interesting; and I haven't even begun reading yet! I love the simple layout you've got going on here. Pretty cool (: Now onto the drabble!

    Like everyone else said, drabbles really leave you wondering and wanting more. This one is really cool. Aren't Sam, Jack, Jose, er, alcoholic beverages disguised as real people and friends? You really took this strain of alcoholism and made it much more real by giving these "drinks" human personalities and characteristics. Very nice!

    Excellent job (: <3

    Drabbles always leave me wanting more. :P This is really good, though. Lots of reality captured in a very short piece of work. It's got a sort of raw simplicity that comes with having to keep it short, and the impact is impressive. I like that you don't really outright state who Sam, Jack, and Jose are, even though it seems fairly clear. Lends a nice subtlety, and leaves room for contemplation.

    The layout is pretty cool, too, though the pink and the stripes felt a bit out of touch with the drabble, to me, but I might be missing something.

    So yes. Excellent work. :)

    It seems like the main characters friends is alcohol. I'm pretty sure that's it. Duhh for me. C:

    I hate drabbles for the pure reason that they're short and leave me hanging when I want to read more. This is no exception. Haha.
    Zebra. I don't know why it fascinates me so, but I stared at it for a good ten seconds.

    Because of your banner, I immediately thought of booze when you listed the three names. I went back and looked at them like are they...? If I'm wrong oh well.

    But I liked it. It emphasizes my belief in the use of alcohol and stuff. I have an inkling as to why the main character would be in blood-- bar fight. Lol. Anyways. This was good. :)

    Huh... That was incredibly short... But I liked it! I liked how it didn't seem like the main character was talking about alcohol, but was instead talking about actual friends. I just... I liked it! :3

    I love the layout. It's dark and mysterious, just like your story.

    This was an extremely intoxicating drabble. The reason being that it leaves so many questions. I can't help but wonder how in the world the character ended up in a puddle of his own blood and vomit.

    I also love your use of the word reckless, and how you repeated it twice. It really gave a hint at how significant the word is to the story. I really want to know why he was called reckless by this girl. And who this mysterious girl is. And why she was the cause of him getting hurt. Or her. I have no clue if your main character is male or female.

    I really love the simplicity of your story. It leaves so many questions. This is totally going to haunt me to no end. Great job!

    Sam, Jack, and Jose- assuming you are talking about Samuel Adams, Jack Daniels, and Jose Cuervo? Or else I look to far into things, lol. But anyways, I really liked this.

    I get what the story is like. The feeling- I just get it. It is great for a drabble, just enough to make it interesting & for it to make sense. The layout was nice, too. I just really enjoyed the whole thing. :)

    Hm, that was very interesting. I was trying to think of another word to describe it, but interesting was all I got.

    Drabbles are my favourite things to write and read, because they can capture a moment or a whole story in just afew words. I think you did that rather well here. I knew what was going on, until the end because I have no idea how he ended up in a parking lot, but I think that's what made it really awesome. Because the readers can make up their own story to go along with yours, ya know?

    I liked the layout too. I do the the title being on top of the picture was a little annoying, just for future reference, but it was nice other than that.

    Anyways, sorry for rambling. I really enjoyed this (:
