LOST Fic: 20 Degrees of Separation

[jenthegypsy]

When you've had a dry spell as long as the one I've had, you jump on the first plot bunny that wanders by. Even when it involves the one and only Lost character that you hate with every fiber of your being

That was good Jen! Ok, so I hate him too, but still it was good. :D

[jenthegypsy]

It certainly doesn't give him a happily ever after, does it? If this fic had written the MRB a happy ending, I wouldn't have posted - ever - if I never wrote anything again I wouldn't have done it.

Most hated man ever in my fictional life? Hell yeah! Pretty darn close in my RL, too!

Thanks for toughing it out - I know what a sacrifice that was, honest!

Oh, that was good. Looks like Michael went off course -- there could be side effects. :)

It was missing one thing -- "Waaaaaaalllllt!!!!!" lol.

Good story!

[jenthegypsy]

Yeah - the MRB got off his course and onto Daniel's freighter's course! Mindfuck much?

It always gnawed at me that Ben was so specific in telling all of us that the bearing was 325, so when Daniel was equally emphatic about the bearing Frank was to follow 305, well, my brain went bzuh? and the fic hopped right out of my fingertips without me even realizing it!

And, of course, astral projection Walt was a given...

So, here's hoping the side effects for the Murdering Rat Bastard are as bad as Minkowski's x infinity!

Thanks for reading and commenting!

ohh, so the Walt with Michael was some sort of astral projection? cool! I just ADORE your Walt voice in the dark room, so spot on. of course Michael will panic any second now!

love what you did with this babe, yay for inspiration!

[jenthegypsy]

*Smushmooches!* Yes! Astral Projection Walt, not to be confused with Tall Ghost Walt, would be the perfect pawn in a game of Fuck With The Survivors.

And the MRB ended up on Minkowski's freighter! Pure speculation, but then again...

Thanks for the encouragement! I'm hoping for Fun Fic next. ;)

You wrote something involving the MRB? Seriously? I sort of love you and at the same time am horribly concerned for your mental state.

That said, this was excellent! So glad to see you writing again!

[jenthegypsy]

Oh, you're the one with the perfect icon! Although my OMGWTF is applicable, too, don't you think?

Mental state? Mindfuck is more like it. I was horrified to see the words appear on my laptop screen! As hendercats said, at least I managed to not say his name throughout the entire thing. That's something, I guess.

Thanks for your cheers and for your concern - I think I'm okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay...

;)

MRB and Ghost Tall Walt, quite the pair!

But this story was really good; a really interesting idea on what might have happened to both of them, and a really great picture of Walt; his devotion to his father and his innocence, at times, and yet how he still manages to be really frightening at other times.

Loved your story!

[jenthegypsy]

Thank you so much! I really, intensely hate the MRB, and was surprised that this story took the turn it did. I'm okay with the TGW part, and since things didn't end well for the MRB, I guess I'm okay with that, too.

Isn't it sad when your muse totally ignores your desires and gives you what it wants to, your ideas be damned? *sighs* Well, at least it's back.

Appreciate you stopping by and letting me know you liked the fic!

[failoh]

I could never totally hate the MRB; I don't know why, maybe it's because I really like Harold Perinnau, whose name I probably just killed, but I always felt kind of bad for the guy. Even though, right after the betrayal I kind of wanted the character to die...but that's that.

And yeah, I totally get that part. I've been trying to force my muse to write Sun, and it gave me Locke. Oh well!

And no problem; it was my pleasure! Thanks for reading mine a while ago, sorry it took me so long to read one of yours!
