Thanks! (Oh, I'm so relieved someone liked it.) I've always wanted to write a telepathy fic and after many, many conversations about wanting the internet in my brain, I figured I could put it in Jack's brain. ;)

Also of note: Longest fanfic I've ever posted.

That was really cool! I have to say, when I saw that prompt I crossed my fingers and did a whole lot of "pleeeeeese don't let me et that one!!". You did a fabulous job with it.

I like the culture you built - very detailed! and the use of the tech for a type of telepathy was good, especially in that it showed that knowing what someone is thinking isn't really enough. Like Gerard said, you still have to ask them.

I like that you set it at the very very beginning of Jack and Daniel's relationship so they still have that uncertainty and vulnerability.

Just lovely.

Thanks! I actually had to laugh because when the prompt went up I jumped up and down and was really excited that someone would write it, but I never expected that I would be the one writing it. It was a bit of a challenge, but really rewarding. I'm quite satisfied with the results.

Like Gerard said, you still have to ask them.I'm glad you enjoyed the culture. I've always wanted to write an SG-1 fic that really dealt with a culture so that was one of the best parts of this challenge. Cyberpunk traditionally has a lot of world-building involved, so having that prompt meant that I had to dig into the culture and really think a few things through. I have so much

I don't need him getting twitchy.

Too late.

♥ Derek's fingers. ♥

"Neither Henley nor Dawes gain enough power,"

*sigh* I'm scarred for life. Where are Tom and James to balance out my sanity?

Poor twitchy Gerard. One day he'll catch a break. Who am I kidding? Joss Whedon is my master; Gerard's doomed.

*sigh* I'm scarred for life. Where are Tom and James to balance out my sanity?

I do wonder what's happened to Tom. James, though, *sighs* you know James had to die. He's too sweet to have dealt with this. (Though could you imagine him with the internet in his brain?)

[momebie]

*snort* James with the internet in his brain. I can't imagine James with the internet period. He gets in enough trouble with books and strangers. Seriously. And I imagine Tom is still plugging away somewhere in Henley's cabinet. He's steady like that.

Oh, Gerard. *snugs*

I really, really like this. Really really.

Really?

Exhausting and satisfying. I'm really glad I got this prompt.
