Thanks. :-)

I've been trying to make it work for a while, but finally got the right image going at the right time. I think 3x04 helped the fandom because of Nathan and Jack's scenes- it looked a lot like Jack wasn't just pining for Ali, and that in some ways Nathan was regretting leaving him behind. There were some slashy bits in 3x03 too.

That's honestly the only way it's come to me so far-- Nathan being the ringleader, convicing them both that it's right. And honestly? I see Nathan and Jack both being the kind that have the hidden insecurites behind the bravado but they've fooled the world by projecting themselves.

I think, however, I broke the fandom with it, considering the radio silence. Ah well, won't be the first time. My OTHER Jack tends to not get much attention, but you would think Jack/Nathan/Ali would ping a lot of people. *shrugs* Hasn't stopped me before, especially with my other Jack.

Yes! I did. :-D My first multipart challenge that I actuallly completed, so I am pleased about that.

Right. People are very one ship or the other. I've never been so much that way, but I know I'm in the minority.

Plus, you get a lot of people on both sides, slash and het, who get all fussy about "you got het in my slash!"/"you got slash in my het" eeww about their fic.

ROTFL I know that reaction, and that was one of the best descriptions of it I've ever seen.

Nooooooo I want more of that one! :-( I want to know how Nathan masterminded it and how it works out. Even though Jack is going against what he believes because of the whole cheating/marriage thing. Ali texted him because Jack wanted proof that Ali wanted it too, yeah? And backstory and invisible blowjobs and... yeah. Jack/Nathan/Ali works. In a very hot way. Except Jack and Ali are going to be a bit slower on the whole acceptance thing.

Plus, there's not really a comm for it on lj, it would end up being just on my journal and maybe fanworks.

For a threesome, I'd post on my journal, fanworks, eureka_fanfic and eureka_slash. The only one out there who has very strict posting standards is marshal_science, so I

Very nicely written. It's always hard for me to imagine this threesome working, but you've done a great job selling it here. Really good.^^

Thanks. :-)

They're a hard set of personalites to work with in general, and in that combination near impossible. I've come up with a very specific setup, and I can see the final result, but the path getting there isn't coming to me... Which makes it hard to write. But it'd be a pretty intersting (and hot) way to go with them. Maybe eventually.

And srsly? I am not a gamer AT ALL, and I see your icon and all I can think is Tuckerrr! LOL (RedvsBlue is the best web series EVER)

This story makes me so happy (despite, you know, the depressing subject). You do a great job of showing the gaping hole Nathan has left in their lives, and I love the sense that there's so much more going on with that conversation at the end of Fear to Eternity. Also, an Allison who's put together and in control, but still in love and grieving is wonderful (and way too rare in fic). Lovely story.

Thank you, glad you liked it!

It's always so nice when someone *gets* what you were trying to do with a piece. :-D

Nathan left a gaping hole in their lives -- (and the integrity of the canon of Eureka itself, IMO) and ever since day 1 there has always seemed to be more going on than meets the eye between the Jack/Nathan/Ali triangle.

Ali's really hard for me to read, so I'm glad she comes through well in this one.
