750 word HiE story · 10:10am Sep 29th, 2013
I originally wrote this as a prologue to Elements of a Successful Tourist Industry, as I felt I needed to explain a bit more about the bizarre AU I had created (and make it clear the story was not just driving a tour bus through the fourth wall). I then decided it wasn't necessary and didn't fit the rest of the story. But it's okay as a stand-alone piece. Enjoy.
