Connection Part 2 (still not quite got a title yet, though I have a possible one in the running) is back from beta and has undergone what is hopefully the last main edit and I'm just waiting to sleep on it and check it through tomorrow before finally posting it. (Yay!)
But anyway, I realised something:
This is the first time in years (possibly more than a decade) that I've written Jack from someone else's POV. (All right, there was the end of Master Plan, but the Master's POV is a very crazed POV! Giles' POV is a much, much saner and more accurate POV!) But anyway, yeah - I've been role-playing Jack non-stop since 2009, and I like to think I've got to know him extremely well in all that time, but it's all been from inside his head.
So it's been absolutely fascinating writing him from outside his head for a change, and seeing him from another, specific, viewpoint. Lots of little insights that I didn't expect. Really cool.
Oh and god, I've gone and totally fallen for Giles again. I'm already planning more episodes for this little series, beyond just tidying up and posting the bits I'd already written!
