(mostly) SPAG beta needed for Fake News FPF

1. Pen Name: kribban
2. Fandom: The Colbert Report/The Daily Show FPF
3. Rating of the story: PG-13. There's a brief mention of non-con fantasy and 9/11.
4. Word Count: circa 8k Words.
5. Spoilers/Time Line: 2013 Canon events
6. Pairing: character!Jon Stewart/character!Stephen Colbert

7. Beta Type: Spelling & Grammar, American-picking. I have a big problem with punctuation, so I need someone who really knows their grammar. I also need someone to check my dialogue and see if it really is how a US American would phrase things.

8. Harshness: Please, be as harsh as you like.

If you don't get someone else and don't need it back super-quick, I think I could beta for the areas you're seeking here. (The "someone else" thing is simply because, while I've been a fan of both shows for years upon years, I've only ever dipped my toe into the fic fandom and I've never thought I really had a handle on the character voices for these guys, so if you do get someone a little more firmly in the fandom, they might be a better choice for you. But I'm pretty solid with SPaG and with flagging non-Americanisms.)

Not sure what format you work in; if it's a document, you can email it to me (same username) at Gmail if you do choose me.
