Arrrh! Jack in wicked mood and poor Will with the sniffles! Am at work now and then have to go straight to little one's Nativity play, so forgive me if don't make longer comment till later, but this is a gorgeous present! Thank you!

[azalaisdep]

I'm so glad you like it! Thank you for letting me know so quickly, too. I hope your little one's Nativity play went well, and that you and your family enjoy a very merry Christmas!

He looked terribly solemn with his crook and his teatowel on his head, bless him, so the only photos I have are of the World's Grumpiest Shepherd, but it all went off beautifully and they all looked very sweet.

Anyway, back to the fic! - that was great fun; I love the way Jack teases James, and the poor Governor unable to do much more than roll his eyes in horror. And I wish I'd seen Will being "a devil with a blade in his hand." Now he needs a good few days in bed being hand-fed hot lemon, honey and whisky by Elizabeth. Only question is - will Jack come down with it too in order to get a bit of TLC?... ;-)

Thank you again for such a lovely, cosy, warming seasonal present!

[azalaisdep]

Forgive me for taking so long to reply. I really appreciate the detailed feedback, and I'm so happy the story conveyed the spirit of the season to you. Have a wonderful Christmas -- and thank you for the description of your little one, so cute!

Oh you set the scene perfectly, mystery author. I could almost feel the rain and Jack is as irrepressible as ever. :)
Nicely done!

[alisanne]

Thank you! Jack is always irrepressible, and much fun to write.

Thank you! (Love that icon - it is, it is a glorious thing!)

Great banter! I love Jack telling the story and being interrupted all the time. Hee.
