The big day is here! If you are a participant in the "Alias: Dearly Departed" ficathon, post links to your stories at the master list!

First up, I'm posting my own. This was written for silk_knickers, who wanted Francie alive again, by hook or by crook.

SpyDaddy sends boys who mess with his darling daughter to Guam. And then they stay there. I have no doubt Mickey Kipp has yet to find his way to the mainland.

So glad you enjoyed!

This is fantastic. I love Francie, and I'm so glad to have her alive again in your story. Very cool! *happy dance*

Thank you so much! I have missed Francie too; it was fun, writing her.

You know, I never really liked Francie, but this was pretty damn enjoyable. She's so no-nonsense. Heh. And you've got her voice down perfectly. Great read!

[yahtzee63]

Thanks so much! I had a lot of fun with it. :)

Yahtzee, this is hilarious! You have Francie down perfectly. You have to write more Francie-fic. Seriously. :)

[yahtzee63]

I don't know how much more there is to do with Francie! But I definitely had a blast with her here -- glad you did too!

[silk_knickers]

Oh my god! Getting you to write for me is like hitting the lottery!

I laughed so hard through this. The Francie voice was absolutely perfect, and I loved knowing so much more than the narrator. It highlighted how completely absurd the Alias universe really is (which was what Francie and Will were all about anyway.) Thanks so much!

Hitting the lottery, nothing -- I keep trying to decide who to give the assignment to, and then I thought, I just can't make anybody do that, b/c it's too hard. To avoid guilt, I took it. Then I realized I could do it funny instead of straight, and then it all seemed much easier.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

Eek. I really wasn't trying to "stump the author" or anything... I just knew there would be a million requests for Jack, and wanted to give someone else a chance to be not-dead. And Francie definitely got the short end of the stick in being friends with Sydney. In any case, this was better than I could have imagined, so thank you for tackling it.

Oh, no worries, I knew you were sincere! And it was good to have some variety, and I definitely had a lot of fun with this. :D
