Awww, neat Abby/Connor centered timey-wimey fic. Loved the people from different periods, the faux Vader and the Eldritch electric eels? Shai-hulud’s sushi platter? (LOL)

easier to say than "future!Connor", yes? :)

It was "eldrich" or "lovecraftian", and I wasn't sure which one would have given the wrong impression of wings and tentacles.

thank you for your reply.

To being with, thank you very much for volunteering to be a pinch hitter when the person assigned to me bailed. Very kind of you.

You're quite talented, there's a cunning and intelligence to your prose, as well as a depth to the tone you set, - reminds me a bit of Harlan Ellison. You've taken my prompts into unique and surrealistic areas I was not expecting - very cool stuff.

I think we may have similar tastes, as I knew precisely who Mara Jade and Paul Atreides were (for example). Connor would too of course.

Thank you for this strange and beautiful tale.

I'm quite very glad you're pleased.

Normally, I'd err on the side of caution in how much reference-dropping to do...but this time, I figured "we're inside Connor's brain."

i confess that, what I know of Mara Jade, is from my friends & from book jackets.

>Thank you for this strange and beautiful tale.
you're very welcome. and thank you for such great feedback.

You're correct, I did mean, 'begin'. Sometimes my fingers and my brain completely disconnect when I'm typing fast.

"we're inside Connor's brain."

Yes we are. It's a strange and scary place :D

Cheers!

no worries; everyone typoes eventually.

once I learned that "code-switching" was a recognized phenomenon, I knew I had to find a place to use it.
