Aww, pure self-indulgence indeed! And look at how nice your table looks now, all filled out and everything! Congratulations!

I really like the first one, by the way. Something about it feels very much like something that would happen on the show; we might not get a return or a cameo or a real mention but you'd like to think Peter would remember from time to time if not actually spend the rest of his life pining.

Anyway, good job with all of these.

I know! It's so nice to see, both the fruits of my self-indulgence and my completed table.

It would be kind of tough to film, I think, but it would be so very nice to for Claude to get a least a little recognition for all he did for Peter.

Thanks very much!

By the by, have you checked out the latest fandom!secrets post?

It's always nice to finish things. And as you know, I have adopted the second one as canon for the end of the series. No matter what else happens.

Seriously. Anything would be nice.

Mebbe ;)

This job is seriously cutting into my comment replying-time. :(

Mm, you know, it's nice that our 'ship can do that. Not many others can.

I'm honestly surprised we didn't think of Destro/Mirror!Wendy first. Unless it was your secret, in which case, how dare you hold out on me!

The first story has such a wonderful bittersweetness to it; it fits in nicely with the show and I could see it becoming part of canon, with Peter channeling Claude to teach his own students. Of course... it would be better if Claude actually returned but-- That's another story.

Which you already wrote with the second one. ;)

Needless to say (even though I'm saying it anyway), I adore the little scene you've made with that. It's very simple and very effective. Great work!

I like to think that's where the show is heading, if a reunion is off the table. Because Peter would make such an awesome teacher, with a little of Claude's tough love approach thrown in to temper his general cuddliness.

Hee, no matter what happens on the show, it's my personal canon that if Peter's still alive at the end, he and Claude will head off into the sunset together. Anyway, thanks very much!

Congrats on completing the table! I have one I signed up for what seems like forever ago that is woefully incomplete.

Anyway, these were both great. I'm echoing the sentiment that the first one is wonderfully bittersweet. It's good to see Peter teaching and finally understanding Claude a bit better. But of course... Claude isn't there.

The second one was lovely too. :)

It's weird how you can look at the table as soon as you get it and have plot bunnies hopping all over the place... and then suddenly it's a year later and you've still got blank spots. I hope you can get back to yours sooner or later.

Thanks! I had fun picturing Peter as Teacher and how his experience with Claude would of course color that, whether he realized it or not. And it's possible that there could be a reunion yet- I never said Claude was dead, just that Peter didn't know if he was alive.

XD Thank you! I spent a long time trying to figure out what my very last prompt fic should be. I suppose it only makes sense that it's my personal canon's ending for the boys.

These are so lovely! This is such a nice, refreshing break from the thesis, you have no idea. The first one broke my heart a little, but I don't mind. Seeing Peter and Claude twine hands in the last one made up for it.

Congrats on finishing the table!

I'm very happy to provide a little mid-thesis entertainment. ^^

Aww, it's not supposed to be heart-breaking! It's supposed to be.. I dunno, empowering or something! Peter's grown up, and realized he's learned more than he thought he did!

Congrats on finishing the table!
Thanks kindly, and thanks for reading!

It was just the fact that Claude isn't there that made me sad. But it is empowering. I just wish Claude would be there. But he is in the second one, so it's all good.

The first one is so sad but I love the second one.

Aww, I didn't mean for the first one to be sad, but I suppose it decided to be on its own. Thanks very much for reading and enjoying!
