Very funny and entertaining. I would say 'poor Jacob'. But then he does end up with one of the most attractive characters in ME. So it's not all bad. Not my any means.

One point of criticism aI would make is the inclusion of the song. Firstly, I personally don't find the inclusion of all the lyrics as adding to the story. It jousts tales up space. I just skipped it completely. Secondly, someone (but not me) may pull you up for breaking the rules.

The fact that the song is from the 1980s does not bother me. It's just copying and pasting the whole song feels a bit unoriginal and even (sorry to say) lazy. Although, I stress to say that I don't regard this story as lazy by any means as you put a lot of effort into it.

I personally think you may have been better picking something shorter and more simple. Perhaps a modified version of Gangnam (You could call in Bangman style or something) style or something. (And because it is Korean it would be regarded as vaguely more culturally relevant to Kasumi.) It would probably be more amusing to describe how Jacob does the moves to the dance rather than just copy and paste lyrics from a song.

Anyway nice story. But the song lyrics are not required for me.

RICKROLLED BY FP WHAT THE HELLZ! This is brilliantly funny and just... yeah. I laughed so hard, poor Jacob. Life is so hard for him sometimes. So, Finally a review from Amiee huh. You know I'm no good at this so I will just do my best. You have a great way of throwing your readers in such a way they're left saying huh? until they get to the next line where they go... oh... damn FP this is brilliant. I love it, well done babe. xx

Baka day! This was flipping great! It was the perfect set up and you did a great job with Jacob playing the putz.

I loved it, your sense of humor is just phenom!

This was such a fun, silly story. Totally at Jacob's expense, but at least the man got a little limelight. I was laughing at the Baka Day performance and the crew's reactions. Poor, oblivious Jacob gave it his all, and in the end it paid off. I like your sense of humor and the way you worded his thoughts, such as when he was worried about his sunglasses falling off and looking ridiculous as a result. If only you knew, Jacob...

You definitely get props for writing in Jacob's perspective and giving the reader insight as to why his personality is so bland (workout, train, armory, rinse and repeat). And I liked how so many things just went over his head. The slight ooc-ness was actually fitting for this story.

I did catch a few errors, namely at the beginning: "He need to keep his heart rate up..." ("need" should be changed to "needed" to stay in past tense) and in the middle: "Ken was going through his personal looker..." (should be "locker"), but these are just nitpicking.

Overall, the Baka Day shenanigans were an enjoyable read. (I can't believe I missed this back in April!) Awesome work!

Ha, I like Jacob being pranked, but there are some things that I found strange. How can the song from the 80s era appeared in the future like this? You should write about how can the music from that age come. Like Kasumi likes collecting retro music or Ken loves listening to old music. Another thing is Kenneth doesn't have accent like that in the game. He never says anything in accent like this. But it is accurate about Kasumi has a crush on Jacob. Also another good one-shot.

I facepalmed ;that hard;

Well let me just say you had your work cut out for ya. I mean Jacob? That man is SO boring. But somehow dressing him up as pimp-Regis was the best remedy to an otherwise hopeless character. Thanks for the mental image which will now scar me for the rest of my ME2 playthroughs. :P Other than that, well done!

... You are evil...
Poor Jacob!

Got me too. xD Rick rolling in a fic - seriously, FP? Seriously? :P

I usually cringe at fics that use the word 'baka' in an exclusively English language fic but you somehow made it work. My favourite scene was when Jacob was being given all the clothes with Ken and Kasumi trying to keep it together and he just goes, 'Damn, I look good.' XD

A sequel would be nice where the following year, Jacob does it again - in public. And he still believes he's promoting the spirit of Baka Day!

Initial impression: I was laughing out loud several times, especially when he started singing. Dear god, you rickrolled your readers. Please tell me this is Keelah-canon, because holy cow Tali needs to mention this somewhere. :D

CONTENT: Aside from wondering just where in the hell Kasumi and Donnelly got a pimp suit, or decided to work together in the first place, I'd count this as canon. EXCEEDS.

CONVENTIONS: As usual, there are a few spelling mistakes (Mirada's voice) and a few places where you're lacking commas. I'm curious if you had someone else beta it, or just went over it yourself a few times. MEETS, just barely.

FLUENCY: Your sentences, aside from the few mistakes, are put together well and do a good job of conveying the emotion and the situation. EXCEEDS.

WORD CHOICE: Again, your writing creativity shows here. EXCEEDS.

ORGANIZATION: The story is put together well. It goes through everything quickly but without feeling rushed. I did think Donnelly should have made at least one smart-ass comment about Jacob stripping in the cargo bay, or maybe had someone like Zaeed walk by the windows, but it's not really needed. EXCEEDS.

CHARACTERIZATION: The only place I didn't feel like people were in character was at the finale. Some of the non-humans (Samara/Grunt at the least) should have been mystified and not getting the humor. And Gardner is never that amusing in canon. MEETS.

VOICE: The whole thing is well written, it draws you in and then holds you down until you're done reading. Though I think you could have quit once you hit the refrain on the song, rather than copy/pasting the lyrics. Everyone should have gotten it by that point. EXCEEDS.

And I should deduct points for still not correcting the spelling on the rubric. :p

Oh my god, that was hysterical. Love it. 3

Heeheehee.

You...you...
*runs away*

Pretty loltastic. I really wanted to see something pertaining to old spice, though.

Looking forward to the next update for meek.

Daaaaaamn youuuuuuu FFFFF PPPP. I didn't see that coming at all. You led up to it very well without revealing what it was, and all the references to Jacob's lameness earned a few chuckles as well. Plus his outfit (I want that cane).

The only thing I can complain about is just how much you references Jacob being boring. Near the middle, right before the rick roll, I was getting pretty bored of it. You already established it plenty in earlier bits, it was getting kind of old.
