Where Edge of Sorrow goes off Canon-compliant and becomes AU...

I've been struggling with the S6 resurrection scene in the next chapter(s) of Edge of Sorrow, Heart of Truth (previous chapters on AO3 and at LJ), and I just realized at least one reason behind it.

I applaud you for embracing the challenge of mixing AU and canon elements. (I've done it and I know you'll excel!) Trust me, when it's over, you'll be glad you did it and the next thing you know, you'll be doing it again!

Thanks. You've done it well in Answering Prayers! (And that's how I knew it wasn't going to end with a "happily ever after" type of shippy ending, with a return to canon. It worked beautifully, even if it made me sad...)

Golly! Thank you! I am so flattered you think well of my story. I'm a big fan of your work, as you know!

I'm glad to hear that you are mixing canon and AU. I think that has the potential to lead to some great storytelling and I am rooting for you to find a solution to your current problem.

Potential for great storytelling, yes. Also for plenty of hair-pulling. :) It keeps me on my toes, as a writer, so I suppose it's good.
