Not for long, and certainly they would NOT be allowed to open this post-Renaissance detective agency they've taken such a shine to (O_o), but...it's not impossible. It would just be largely irrelevant to the story, for all Eliot parallels them in his mind. And Lavinia is largely the reason why he ended up helping Tess in the first place. Er...<br /><br />I'm away this weekend, hopefully I can spend that time in the hotel tidying some stuff up to share...! >_< I'm so easily distracted right now. Dammit, Ryenn and Arosek, shut up, I have other things to write...<br /><br />As for Morgan...I would trust very, very few people to write her properly. I mean, she appears to be off her rocker and would be so easily Flanderised it's not funny. The only reason I have any control over her is because I know how far is too far. That line, however, probably wouldn't be as obvious to someone who hasn't known her as long as I have, ha ha ha. But I would just live in terror of the FLUFF. Morgan's not against fluff, of course. She just tends to think of fluff as that stuff that lives in the lint-catcher in the dryer and is so wonderfully flammable.

I totally understand. I've also o...You know... I totally understand. I've also often wanted Blair and Hobbes to meet, simply because Blair thinks of himself as an intellectual, but Hobbes would make him seem comparatively like the class dunce. I just want to see how he'd react to that. He'd be just smart enough to be really useful to her--reliable, independent, and very intelligent--just enough to recognize how very far she surpasses him.<br /><br />I'm so mean.<br /><br />But yeah, totally get that urge. And while it's fun to daydream such meetings, it's probably best to keep them off the page until you FINISH TJB AND SEND IT MY WAY, HOW LONG DO YOU INTEND TO KEEP ME WAITING???<br /><br />... sorry about that. I just want to see what happens. XD And I miss reading your work!<br /><br />Also, the fanfiction question: you know I actually did write a fanfic for a writer friend once? Only it was a joke fanfic. I took one of the most awful slashfics I'd ever read, and put to of her characters in it (I just changed the names) because she had made the mistake of telling me that "it would be really cool if there were fanfiction of her work someday." I wanted to show her that it might not be as cool as she thinks.<br /><br />It was such a naughty prank. I think maybe she's still scarred... but the funny thing was that it was a *real* fanfic, just slightly adulterated...<br /><br />(Woody/Andy together... so wrong. And can you imagine what they would do to Morgan? *shudder*)G.B. Skyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13798228862436721498noreply@blogger.com
