Good and Bad

Good: I've posted all of Dreamverse as a single fic (but still with the chapter headings) to AO3!

Bad: I failed to finish the last square of my Kink Bingo line, so I've gone ahead and just posted the four fics I did complete before Amnesty closes on the 15th. I've got company and things to do this weekend, so there's no hope of finishing the other fic. But I am still resolved to finish it One Of These Days! It's only been four years...

Cleaning up

Remember Dreamverse? And Bjorn? I've never posted that story other than as chapters, but I have a file now that's almost ready to be posted.

But I've found a couple of errors I want to clean up:

At one point I used 'beg the question' incorrectly:

Jack’s heart clenched. He leaned back in his chair. “Is this conversation over yet?”

“Daniel… but you did not want to talk about Daniel.”

“Please,” Jack said through tight lips.

“I thought you should know these things.”

And didn’t that just beg the question of what Daniel had told Bjorn.


I want to replace the incorrect usage, but I still want to keep the bitter flavor of the original sentence. Somehow, 'didn't that just raise the question...' doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have a suggestion to re-work that sentence and still hang onto Jack's anger?


In a later section, I have Teal'c announcing his need to kel'no'reem. BUT, this is after Daniel descends, so Teal'c is on tretonin and doesn't need to kel'no'reem anymore. Does anyone recall canon references to kel'no'reem post-Season Six? Maybe he desires to kel'no'reem? It's really just an excuse to get Sam and Teal'c out of Jack's house, because PLOT...so he could just decide it's bedtime, it's getting late, he's tired, whatever. Thoughts?

Belated Announcement of Great Squee-worthiness

OH YES!

I won a Blue Moon Award. \o/

Blue Moon Awards

I don't remember what other stories were in that category. I was surprised to find my story placed in "Other Slash", but when I compared it to the Jack/Daniel story nominees it definitely didn't resemble them, so I let it be.

(Also, I knew I had a better chance of winning if Dreamverse wasn't in competition with all the wonderful stories my friends wrote!)

Thank you to everyone who voted for Bjorn! *G*

Daniel's head - a Dreamverse addendum

Just stumbled across this tonight and thought I would share. These are notes written on May 17th, sometime before the last two Dreamverse chapters were written. The entire series was written from Jack's POV, and some very wise people made it clear to me that the reasons for Daniel's behavior were going to need to be explained before all was said and done.

I spent a five hour drive to Wisconsin communing with Daniel, and the following notes were the result. The bit that is underlined was the big revelation that made everything else make sense.

I hope fans of the Dreamverse series will enjoy this outline of a love story.  :-)


 

I miss Bjorn )
