This is excellent! Nicola having to fight for her own seat and doing it alone is a great plot. I love your Nicola and I absolutely adore your Nicola and Malcolm interactions. I'm really looking forward to part two.

Thank you! Malcolm and Nicola yelling at each other is one of my favorite things to write, so I'm glad it works for you. :) There will definitely be a second part, but it might be a bit before I can get it posted, thanks to THE EPIC MOVE.

WHY DOES IT END, WHY DOES IT END THERE?

like some grey-suited fucking Lazarus

Why does it end there?!

WHY DOES IT END, WHY DOES IT END THERE?

BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I GOT FINISHED IT IS A THEMATICALLY APPROPRIATE ACT BREAK NEAR THE MIDDLE OF THE STORY.

I wanted to post something before the ficathon deadline, even if (I am just now realizing), I didn't actually post it to the community proper. I am such a winner, look at me go. And, yes, I will post the other half soon. Cross my heart, may all the forces of media darkness hound me to an assisted suicide if I lie.

Oh, hey, check out your new icons! Approve!

Thank you! I hope you like the second part, too. :)

This was just awesome. I love the way you've written Nicola so in character. I do hope there is more on the way.

Thank you so much! And yes, indeed, there is.
