lmao this confused me so much since i’m using that icon on my twitter hahaha WE ARE THE SAME PERSON NOW
LOL – well, you know how they say great minds think alike! And I mean come on – look at him with his adorable santa hat and the uniform. Who could resist that icon?
Ooh, good questions!
2. You’ll never believe this, but this one the first scene I wrote down was literally the first scene of chapter 1. I wrote this one pretty much from start to finish without pausing for breath, or at least that’s what it felt like at the time.
5. I think the hardest thing about this one was trying to get Flint’s voice right, and I’m still not convinced I managed it. I was still figuring out how to write him at the time, and I think I probably spent more time editing his POV sections than any of the rest of it, since Thomas and Miranda’s voices both come altogether more naturally for me.
11. What I like best about this fic… hmm. That’s a tough one. I think it’s probably the fact that it’s Miranda essentially taking the bull by the horns and rescuing Thomas with James’ help rather than the other way ‘round. I like giving her that kind of leeway and agency in fics. And, of course, the fact that it is a rescue fic is an added bonus!

*hugs* well at least now there’s the new black sails trailer to flail about! ❤
Yeah, there’s that at least, although I have to wait to actually turn the sound up until tonight when I get off of work. 5:00 cannot come fast enough!

*hugs* THIS IS STILL RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME AND YOU’RE THE BEST ❤
Thank you darling! *hugs back* You’re a ray of sunshine, as usual!
Aw, thank you!
*hugs* ❤ there’s no /need/ to get writing done! just take it easy ❤
Thanks darling! On the plus side, I am happy to say that I got a second chapter done, and with that I’m calling it a night, since I do genuinely need to get more sleep before I’m going to produce anything even remotely coherent.

aksdjfkjdf i am so looking forward to this!! flint being GIDDY!!! MIRANDA BEING ANGRY!!!! everything i love, honestly. so excited 😀
It’s kind of surreal, actually, because happy James is a completely, utterly different person from Flint and getting to write him like that is kind of a head trip. I’m sure that Flint as Flint will make an appearance again eventually, even if it’s only just to scare the shit out of someone deserving but for now… holy crap, hi there James, where the fuck have you been hiding?
Also, poor Thomas. So confused as to why everyone’s acting so odd.
