Let's get the party started -- birthday fic for Karaokegal

[vanillafluffy]

As we know, Fluffy hasn't been writing a lot of fic lately. This tale, however, has been patiently waiting for me to scribe it for a few years now, so I finally obliged.

Here for your birthday pleasure, dear karaokegal, is a bit of backstory:

Thanks! It's one of those things that I've been contemplating for a while that was finally ready to be written.

Despite Jools' remarks to the lady at the opera, I've never thought of him as simply a cruel and perverted power broker, so I love stories that find that remarkable beginning for him.

I loved that scene with him in the gentlemens' club, and I wanted to see the Old Boy Network at work...and Dunkirk is one of those topics that always brings a lump to my throat, I couldn't tell you why.

THANK YOU SWEETIE! Wonderful B-day present, especially when I still feeling rubbish. I could so perfectly hear those plummy accents and smell the fireplace. OH JOOLS! Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

You're so very welcome! I'm sorry you're still feeling unwell, Hope it clears up PDQ.

I'm glad the atmosphere came across, that was what I was aiming for....
