Click. Day one, approximately... 8:47am in the New York City area. Log number one. This is Alfred F. Jones, and I'm currently on the airplane from New York City to London, England. I am in search for a story, a first-hand account from a London doctor during the Second World War. About... Hey, how long until we land?... About four and a half more hours until we land in London. I will log back in after having met my client, the doctor. Alfred Jones, out. Click
( ... )
I'm absolutely loving what you're doing with this. I love Alfred's explanation of Arthur being "a little too rough" when trying to switch clients. Totally an Alfred thing to say, I think, given the interaction between the two.
And please feel better! I can relate to the emotional issues. Don't pressure yourself into deadlines - take your time! No need to rush. What you have so far is brilliant. c:
Oh no, I'm better. I'm still a little disappointed in myself, but as my older sister had said 'At least you're fucking up for free' because she had fucked up in college like three times, and had to pay all three times so yeah. xD My family has a colorful past. Let's just keep it at that.
O-Oh really? You really think it's brilliant? ;u; I'M SO RELIEVED. I was stuck on this part too, especially the interview because I felt that it was too short but I didn't know what else to add so I was like 'AUUUGH' and whatnot. The next part'll be awesome, I can tell you that. :D

I can't wait for more interaction between our sweet boys ^^ *yes, I just called Artie sweet.* Oh...Atonement? I shall! *anon knows very well how lit/movies totally affect the fics >.>*

Ahahaha, don't feel sorryy~ Infact, you and the other anon were the ones that really pushed me to actually update the fic, so I should be thanking you. :D
Kesesesesesesesese... (* ω*) Ohohoho, it'll get very delicious... Trust me... *'kolkol's and 'kesese's in the background*
Now if you excuse me, I have to finish writing this part, which is when the real shit goes down! Author anon out.

Er, again, my bad. I'm in school and like. I don't know how to go through the new chapter. :v I've attempted but I'm annoyed and I'm thinking of scrapping the beginning and just going at it from a different approach, but idkkk. ;A; I dunno... :/ I'm (hopefully) gonna update later today, my sleep being the sacrifice, but yeah. v:
OH LOL if Captcha is trying to guess what's gonna happen, its far off, I can say that much. xD

“The entire day. Since I had first worked here as a doctor’s apprentice, I had never seen that many people here at a time. It was truly amazing. All I hope to be honest is that with the Blitz attacks, we won't have to experience that anymore first-hand.”
“Mmm… How long has your hospital been active?”
“Ooh, now that's a hard one. Ummm... Probably a little over 20 years? Give or take a few? If you're asking how old this hospital is, that I cannot answer.”
“Hmm.. Well, I believe that's all I need Mr. Kinlan, thank you.” Click

Click. Day three, the date is September 7th, 1940, 11:40 am in New york City, log seven. After meeting with the Director and having my interview, he left to apparently meet with a patient who was undergoing birth. After her baby was out, a nurse looked, found and spoke to me, saying that the Director had given me permission to stay at the hospital for a place to be until I had my article up and done. After a load of persuasion, I got my things from my hotel and I'm now currently under the actual hospital itself, where it has several separated rooms and in the center, a large empty area. I can only really assume that it's to store beds or something. *siiigh * Well, I suppose that's about it. Alf-*BOOOOOM! BOOOOM!* Get everyone downstairs now, as many people, as many patients, as much equipments, anything! Now, this is not a drill! D-Director...? O-Oh, AlfredJonesout! Click. - Click. *siiigh* Why am I doing this? I really shouldn't be reporting on something this serious... People are in horrible shape... Ugh, I just-... I-I just can't.

A gag in his throat warned Kirkland, warned him to stay away and pretend to have never saw the name on the chart, to go back to the Doctor's rest area and have a swig to drown out the memories and normally, he would have listened. But this time, a voice in his head called out, saying that he needed to face the music, saying that he needed to see his last evidence of his cheerful past, or at least the last piece of evidence that he managed to remember past the alcohol. So with a disgusted expression, Kirkland managed to sit down next to the patient (Mustn't refer to him by name. He mustn't refer to the patients by name, or he will get connected to them), just as Walker decided to flutter his eyes slightly and had noticed the man with the tossed blonde hair, caterpillar eyebrows and bleached doctor labcoat. "A-Arthur...? Is th-that you...?" Half his syllables were lost under the metal in his mouth, but Kirkland was able to get the gist of what he asked.
No Kirkland, don't fall into the trap. He will die soon, and you can't let your

The serious meat-and-bone of the story. :U
I think this part is literally one of my overall best; not just with this fic, but like. Ever. Also we get into the ACTUAL mind of our alcoholic doctor! :D But you already knew that. xDDDD
I finished the last part and then I was like 'Hmm, what do I do for the next par-- ARTHUR BREAKS LOL OKAY' so I made from when he received the charts to the end in like, a few hours, and then the beginning part, I started yesterday, but got stuck with because I was going at a different angle, decided that was horrible, and then I got beginning we have here. :U
Also, I posted the part I worked on before on my dee-aye account, where I have some other works (through in small numbers) and if I get enough people to ask, I'll deanon after I finish. :U

It's amazing anon. This fic is shaping up to be one of my favs in this meme. The details, the emotions... It's just that the words you chose to form a sentence makes those sentences flow so easily has we read them.
O-Oh my God. ARE YOU FOR SERIOUS ANON?! THAT IS SUCH A HIGH HONOR. ; U ; *IS SUPER-SUPER-SSSSSUUUUPPPPPEEEERRRRRR FLATTERED* *IS LIKE SO FLATTERED, WORDS CAN'T DESCRIBE* /Poland
But like seriously. Thank you SO MUCH. Ego +20! oh btw is this fic like, in cahoots with like, Who Slept with Alfred Jones? or the Financial Gangbang (the original, not the spinoff requests)?

Never, ever have I thought I'd give myself such a nickname. Well..I like for you to be able to recognise me XD
Anyway, I'm sooo happy you posted this chapter. I love being inside Arthur's...BRAIN. And... since I assume you like constructive crit I'm just going to comment on the fact that I was kinda put off by the *sob sob* *sigh* kind of thing when Arthur was talking... it just didn't flow I'm afraid D:
Apart from that, lovely job as usual. and... please author!anon don't tell me you like the Financian Gangbang? DDD': *can't stand the thought of it*
