I always take the longest time to reply to these, perhaps because I can keep you and your lovely comments at the back of my mind for a rainy day. Something like that.

My consistency is something I've always worried about, since my writing is modular due to lack of free time. It doesn't stand out (much) in the short fics; when there's a word count of five digits, however, it tends to show.

I love this fic, it's my painstakingly-raised younger child, but it festered for a long time. I began writing this last April or so, and along the way, I deleted it completely by accident and had to re-write, and by that time a lot of the initial inspiration -colors, lights, Jensen frowning over the prompt book with a streak of blue glitter across his forehead, Jared sketching on a napkin- had all dulled somewhat. Jonjo confirms that though the second version is easier to keep up with, my first stab at the theatre tech monster was a tad more poetic, and therefore typical. This fic is forever destined to be the somewhat disappointing follow-up to Drifts in my head.

I'm really not supposed to be doing this, but I really, really need to write Sherlock fic.
