This is the first fic I’ve published, and indeed only the second time I gave something back to this wonderful fandom.

I’d like to thank the following people:

Kryxel, who allowed me to help him help me help the both of us, and who bared with my occasional bouts of self-doubt.
Chatoyance, who gave me the last gentle push I needed to even get started on this, and who has had me glued to my screen on more than one occasion
AVeryStrange, who practically introduced me to shipping, and who wrote the plot for this story. (find it here.)

These are all amazing people, and have every right to feel proud about themselves.


Anyhow, on with the story!
