Fanfic.

The frustration of immense storm-driven tides thrummed up through the cold stone floor.

By the guttering light of a single candle, James used a long steady finger to trace the wing-like shape of Flora’s shoulder blade.

He leaned forward and pressed a gentle kiss there, as though  his lips were like anchors, as if they alone were heavy enough to

Aww I love James so much. Just got finished watching Jack Dav in "The Talented Mr. Ripley." This was a nice capper!

I always forget he was in that movie. I hate that movie. I love Matt Damon and (of course!) I adore Jack Davenport, but I hate that movie. I think it's all Gwyneth Paltrow's fault.

I'm quite pleased with how this chapter turned out. It gives a tiny glimpse of detail from what was undoubtedly a long night, but somehow it manages to be more than enough. I thought about writing it longer, but I felt overcome by a strange sense of propriety. In contrast to the last James/Flora chapter, it seemed inappropriate to show more.

I'm blaming the sense of propriety on James. We all know it's his fault.

Nice. Only a few words, but still lots of detail! :)

[pink_siamese]

You guys are all smart. You can figure it out!

O_O Flora's an angel, with Stella as a mermaid! ZOMG, I knew it. (Not really ^_^() ).

[pink_siamese]

And Cutler is the devil, and Norrington is just...hot. ;-P

WOW. Simply WOW. That is the most honest if unhelpful comment I can send after reading your latest chapters. I love the turn you've taken with Norrington and Flora, and your Mercer has left me utterly speechless. *bows*

[pink_siamese]

I'll accept 'wow'. Wow is always good. ;-)

I've written a lot in the last week. Now I'm kinda stuck. But that's okay. There's a wee bit of mutiny going on in the back of my mind. That probably sounds like a bad thing, but it's not. I like it when my characters get headstrong on me. It saves me a whole bunch of work.

Glad to see you've got a new laptop! I've missed you!

[stabbycutlass]

Or more unhelpful, simply agreeing with another person's comment since its hits on the same parts I would have. ^_^()

Wonder detail in the brief chapter, pink_siamese.

[pink_siamese]

Squee! I love this little chapter, I really really do. I wanted to encapsulate an entire night in as few words as possible. Kind of a weird little goal I made for myself when I realized that this chapter just didn't want to be long.

[ariei_delmonte]

As short as it was, it's one of my favorites. Seriously, maybe it's because I'm developing this... thing for James... Lovely lovely! Yay!

[pink_siamese]

Yeah, I am too. It's part of the reason I'm taking a break from Luna: I'm finding James very distracting.

I'm glad it's one of your favorite chapters. It's one of mine too. I figured it was kind of experimental to make it so short, but it seemed right. Thank you for all your lovely compliments! They aren't the only reason I write, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't like 'em a whole lot. ;-)

Aww... ^.^ You made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside like a caterpillar crawled inside me.
