The first time I read this, it was the middle of the night. I burst out laughing at the last line, loudly enough to wake hubby. It just /resonated/ in ways that surprised me, as I have little experience with martial arts and wasn't expecting the details to be so /engrossing/.
Getting to the lessons and back may pose a deliberate challenge-- one way to see /how/ serious Phil is, now that's he is on the verge of the high school years and right about the age when kids in our neighborhood are still encouraged to go door-to-door looking for odd jobs as a step toward building a work ethic and earning pocket money.
Really, really great.
(And I burst out laughing /each/ time I read the last line. I can totally picture young-Coulson's expression!)
