Very amusing fic, yeah, and quite amusing in places.
I think the moment that really got me is where Peri says or suggests that she's lost friends before after sleeping with them. With the whole focus on her assets and attire from the beginning (which is of course very in keeping with her episodes)...it paints an interesting and to me slightly sad picture of a girl who's always had some of her self-esteem wrapped up in her attractiveness, perhaps. Not sure that's how I choose to think of Peri (and it fits far too well with the disturbing fan theory out there about her relationship with her stepdad), but it's well-played and thoughtful, and adds intriguing layers to her relationship with Six.
Of course, I also half-ship Five and Peri myself...
