My Immortal. Prologue.

Apr 16, 2008 13:23

Here it is, finally. Well the very beginning anyway... Most of the timelines from the different canons fit together pretty perfectly, but there is one major inconsistency as well as the problem of how and why did Jack chose to become 'The Immortal'. This prologue attempts to weave all these things together in a way I hope you think works (behold, I ( Read more... )

This is wonderful! You have captured Jack perfectly, I can see him in my head doing all this. And having my two favorite fandoms combined, fantastic! I can't wait for more.

Aw, thank you! (I'm not kidding saying it was hard work to write. The first draft was *awful*, so it pleases me no end that I got it to work!)

That makes two of us. He's a lot of fun having around in your head. *g*

Trust me, I will write as fast as I can! The whole thing is eating me up and I keep going over scenes in my head. Thank you lots for your kind words!

Oh, promising beginning! And a good setting up of a mystery. My current guess is that you'll do something with that 2000 years under the earth nonsense and this is how future!Jack will set up current!Jack's existence as the Immortal.

It was a shame she wasn’t 25 years younger...

You know, the revelation that Jack is age-discriminating has been one of my few disappointments about TW s2.*g*

To be honest I've not actually worked out a theory for how he sets it up yet. As for the buried-alive thing, then I've mostly adopted peasant_'s fabulous fanwank. Although your idea is very appealing.

Well he does go a lot by looks... although in this case it's more that she's too old to run off with him for fun & frolics.

Despite my Spuffy preference, I can totally see how Buffy would be attracted because it's JACK ((**loves**))
I *know*! And because it's Jack he also understands loss and grief - I have so much I want to do with them!

Your Jack is totally plausible and I could picture him wondering what the hell is going on and then just going with it.
Aw thanks! Jack is such a fabulous character, and although I was nervous , he's not as hard to write as I thought. (I hope that's not coming back to bite me...)

Thank you lots for reading and your feedback! :)
