Ah yeah! You have no idea how excited I was to see this appear on my flist! :D Brilliant, I love the way this was written, it flowed so wonderfully and Patrick was beautifully written. His childhood and how he can to become part of the family was awesome as well as Patrick and Bob's relationship.

I'm glad to see another of these stories! :D

:DDD We have gotten slightly distracted by other fandoms and fics but rest assured, this 'verse is not abandoned and we still have plenty of stories and fics to go with it.

And I'm so pleased to see there are readers who are sticking with the 'verse too :) Thank you so much for your enthusiastic comment, I'm so happy you enjoyed Patrick's back story and how he came to be part of the Family.

Ah it happens to everyone, I've been doing that lately too XD That's a relief though, I love this 'verse it's so rich and alive!

I do love a back story ;)

Another fascinating look at the background story. You do know that some day you're going to have to sort this out into chronological order and turn it into a book of some sort? (Maybe for AO3)

Glad you enjoyed this! It is all sorted in chronological order in the story index and we have a timeline sketched out. We're just writing and posting in somewhat random order from it... There's a reason we've kept this 'verse out of AO3 for as great as that site it, it doesn't support this kind of meandering form of 'verse creation and story-telling.

But it would, once you've got a lot further, maybe to some kind of 'volume end'. Then you could edit it into one long fic/series. I just think it deserves more exposure!! (Eventually.) See, you're writing this roughly the way I did my Harlequin universe. That was hell to wrestle into chronological submission,removing repetition, etc. but I don't think the story has lost anything and it has maybe gained because as I did that I got new insights and added bits. If you already have the chronology sorted, you're good to go!

Eh, not hugely bothered about 'exposure' for this at the moment. Frankly, I haven't bothered pimping this one anywhere because it's just a background piece to a wider 'verse and there is no titillating sex here, hence readership is going to be small. So, perhaps one day when we have more of the substantial story lines done...
