Once I saw the similarities I couldn't *un*see them, they really are like the same characters (although it won't show up in the vids, s2 Allan=Moist even). The later ones are actually more intimidating to me, partly because they are generally longer and partly because the mutual plots get so...hurty. But one day I'll get there.

But for right now the fic muses have moved in and I'm glad to have them for a while. But knowing people are still looking forward to this series is quite encouraging that I really should get back to them when I can. I'm glad for that and the feedback.
