For the three characters: Admiral Hennessey (or A dot Henn as I just referred to him in my head even going his first name probably doesn’t start with A), Thomas Hamilton, and Miranda Hamilton :)

I’m totally good with his first name being Admiral (As in “his name is Agent), but I actually did give him a first name that starts with A in my fics! Also, if my legacy to this fandom is redeemed Admiral Hennessey, I’m pleased with it.

for the fic title ask meme – as a stranger give it welcome :D

Thanks!

As a Stranger Give it Welcome I credit to @gedsparrowhawk, who kindly suggested it when I was looking for help coming up with a title for the fic. It comes from a line in the ghost scene in Hamlet. “Horatio: O day and night, but this is wondrous strange! Hamlet: And therefore as a stranger give it welcome.There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,Than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” This is said when he’s telling them about the ghost, so it seemed appropriate, not to mention of course that in the fic Silver is telling James about his encounter with a sort of ghost (Thomas).  Bri, you’re welcome to weigh in on this one – that’s what I got out of your suggestion but you might have had different reasons.
