Woah now. I got all distracted by your icon and totally lost my train of thought. Oy. ANYWAY. My brain does a lot more cracktastic things since I met you:-P But I consider this a positive development;)
1. I'm glad you liked the flirting! I kinda struggled with balanced in this fic, because I wanted it to feel like a genuine break, but I also didn't want to write as if they were tiptoeing through the tulips and I was discounting the massive sucktasm everybody had just been through. But yeah, they're the masters of deflection, so hee.
2. A true story. I'm still terrified to write Jack. I see him in such a specific way and in my head it's all supported by canon, but people have such different ways of reading the character, so. I never get over how hilariously adorable Jack is with women he loves.
3. Just, squee! Augh, that's one of the highest compliments ever, because to me that means I might have succeeded a little and moar squee.
Thank you for the kickass comments:) London is going to happen. I have to switch gears, because what I was doing isn't working for me at all, so I'm starting all over (don't worry -- not throwing the old stuff out). That's fine with me -- I never thought this would be easy. I figure I just have to get it done before a certain important date, because after that you'll never have beta time again!
