I cannot emphasize how much I love this story, I'm now going to go back and curse you with rereading it, and will attempt to give you a review per chapter that you deserve... unfortunately I doubt I am up to the task but it's the best that I can do, I am going to attempt to take my time and not rush through every chapter at a break neck pace like I used do. Wish me luck fellow fans!

It just occurred to me, the scenes with the shrink/psychiatrist are a lot like similar scenes from the movie Grosse Point Blank.
A short-sighted platypus shrink is perfect to deflate Nick's ego.

All I want for Christmas/Next Year is another chapter of this wonderful story! I'm not above begging, either. Real life permitting, dear writer.

Minor plot error I have to point out: In the movie, the rhino train does not change course, only Judy's wagon does. Though I guess that falls under artistic license. :-)

Just wanted to say, yours is one of the best multiple-arcs-long stories I've read so far. Nick and Judy's characters are spot-on, Clawhauser's and Bogo's too. The OCs are interesting yet subdued enough so they don't become obnoxious and irritating (which is a major problem with OCs in general in my opinion) and the subplots concerning Nick's love life and his struggle to leave his life of hustling behind wonderfully completes your work.
However, may I advise you using a (better) spellcheck in the future, proofreading your chapters multiple times and/or seeking out a beta-reader?
When writing such an extensive story, you're bound to make mistakes, I write myself (though not here but on AO3 because I like to write E-rated fics) and I find dozens of mistakes on my third and fourth reading of my works,but it would really polish your already shining art. :-)

Right now, I'm thinking con job for the twenty million. There was no software, the wolf is all three missing mammals, using the window to duck in and out past a rhino who couldn't tell species apart visually... And the game app is going to nail him by giving him away with location logs of some sort... If I'm right, that's bloody, bloody good. _

This is, I think, the first Zootopia fanfiction I've seen where Nick is actually badass by way of being Nick instead of tacking on mad ninja skills... High speed con artistry, noticing and remembering things, making connections and a little light Bavarian Fire Drill to bring it all together.
The Blackadder and Pratchett references don't hurt either.
Very nicely done!

Well, what have we here I thought when first reading this fic two weeks ago. Within the first half chapter I was hooked, at the start of the second chapter I then went through the first chapter again and put all of the songs you mentioned in Spotify and let er rip.
Wonderful story, extremely well fleshed out, the only tiny things is some, not spellcheck, but wrongly chosen words due to spell check scattered around. But seriously not big. Looking forward to seeing more. Really, I love ZG and what she adds to the dynamic, I also adore the references, pretty sure there was Terry Pratchett in there for a bit, blazing saddles, Agatha Christie, oh and I truly truly adore the shrink, (seeing as he is a platypus, dare I say quack?) Still loads to catch up on as you continue your story, we need to know about Wilde's old case file, Doug, oh, and I need to continue to add to my playlist, ;) keep up the good work, take your time in posting, for such high quality everyone is happy to wait.

Great! Best New Year's present I've had yet,, for a long time.
Am so embarrassed I did not see this up here the night you published it. I have been watching,, and waiting,, and trying to figure it out.
Thanks for all your clever work and wordsmithing.

Thank you sooo much for keeping this up! Seeing a new chapter trully made my day!
Love your brilliant, funny, detailed writting; witty dialogues and jokes! Also that psychological depth of every character, and the chemistry between them! (NxJ)
Eager to read more! Right now, I bet my odds in the adopted son, or better yet, someone very close to him (biological family, possibly ex-worker of the rich family... ) Hope to find out soon!
THANK YOU 3

The crazy fic continues.
Witty and brilliant dialogue as usual, and all fantastic fun. No big clues just yet, though if forced to guess I'd go for the campaign manager or the teenage son (super ratings/heroic story or anger/feeling he was only adopted to win votes). The loud one or the quiet one, or maybe one of them framing the other.
The scenes were all described in luxurious detail, and this whole thing is only just starting. I'm looking forwards to seeing where this goes.

Marvelously entertaining and detailed chapter as usual. It was fun seeing ZG expertly dance around Calopus' question about who Hopps and Wilde are and then have Judy just blurt it out. All of Nick's observations and opinions about the house was interesting. I suspect you threw in some clues along the way but I haven't got a clue yet. Good job. Looking forward to meeting some of the other members of the family and household.
