I commented on your actual link, but I will comment here too, I loved this! I was surprised at work, because after I had stayed up reading this last night, I had found a jar of coconut oil behind the display at my register! Ironic!!

Oh I'm so glad Stephen isn't offeneded that Jack had refused Diana the passage!

So much love between the two yet again! And Stephen doing the first "sex act" after months as though it would be doctor's duty was somehow cute. (I'm sorry I lack the right words since my first language isn't english)

Beautiful beautiful scenes between them. Stephen losening the ribbon in Jack's hair and then stroking through it is one of my favourite phantasies.

Now I wonder if I still should read the books since I'll obviously will miss the real slash---??

Your English is very good. I would never know that you are not a native speaker.

I hope you do read the entire series. It is so very enjoyable, so complex and beautifully faceted. In many cases, as we say, the slash writes itself. For me at this point, there is nothing contrived or forced about it, it is the most natural thing in the world to read the series this way, in some strange way, it can actually seem canonical.

Thanks so very much for your praise about my English. *dances with joy*

I just bought the first book. It should be here in about a week :-)

Yay!!! So glad! When you catch up, if you wish, you should join us at the read over at Dreamwidth. We are on Fortune of War now and we do one chapter per week.
