I started reading this for ... well, you know who ... *points to icon* but I really like this chapter. :) Love the way you write both LJ and Legrand.

[wastingyourgum]

I hope you don't feel you were lured in under false pretences! It's only a very small (and not very flattering!) mention of Guy but I was trying to be complete in the "Mentions" section.

I don;t usually write Guy but maybe I should try and write something with him and LJ for Intercomm? I suspect they could have some fascinating conversations if I could find a plausible reason for them to be in the same place at the same time and not trying to kill each other!

I'm so glad you liked it anyway and thank you for the lovely comment!

Oh, sorry! I didn't mean this chapter, I mean that I started reading the story for Guy but I'm now reading the other sections too. I actually thought the mention of Guy here was kinda cute. :D

Guy and LJ? sounds interesting. (Well, not Guy/LJ. That sounds... seriously disturbing. LOL.) But it would be interesting to see them interact, maybe after Guy joins the gang in s3?

[wastingyourgum]

Ahh - right! Well I'm still glad you liked the chapter and you're sticking with the story!

Hmmm, Guy/LJ... Would have to be a bloody strong bed! ;)

Yeah I think between the end of 3x11 and the middle of 3x13 is about the only time you could shoe-horn it in...

This was great! I loved the little peek into Legrand's life, and from it, the insight we get into John as well.

You have such a way with words too, with the description of the mist at the beginning. Go you!

[wastingyourgum]

Thank you! That means a lot coming from someone like you whose writing I admire.

Giving Legrand a whole life before "TotN" has been tremendous fun!

Eeee!

The whole John/Legrand exchange is just so perfect, the mix of serious conversation and humour makes it so real.

Loved Legrand being "helpful" with the ghosts and the not falling off the edge of the world thing.

And John's name-calling was also good fun (I had wondered how that was pronounced).

And being terrified of Queen Eleanor is a completely understandble response - but strong women can be so much fun :D

Anyway, point is - brilliant (as always) :D

[wastingyourgum]

Thank you - it was a fun conversation to write!

He means well, bless! I can just picture Djaq giving him "the look" tho'! :)

We love, love, LOVE, Queen Eleanor. I'm absolutely champing at the bit to bring her into the story but we might have to wait for that... there's the rest of the journey to complete and a king to save first...

Thanks for commenting (and continuing to read)!

I am seriously falling in love with Legrand! Too bad he only likes burly outlaw types. I could stop shaving my legs, but that's about all I could do. I guess I'll have to let John have him. Sigh.

Good chapter. Keep writing.

That makes two of us! Actually, four of us if you count darkentwisted and robinfanatic who enabled me to keep him alive in the first place!

Too bad he only likes burly outlaw types.
Mmm, and too bad burly outlaw types aren't so sure about him...

Good chapter. Keep writing.
Thank you! And we plan to!
