Dear Aral,
Please cooperate. I'm trying to compose fic about you. Not about Simon. Not about you and Simon either. Even if he worships the ground you walk on and you just-- nevermind.
Dear Simon,
I love how many fic ideas you churn out, but like you, I'm always on duty and leisure time is the thing that happens to other people. And I already have Oathbound to work on, and that half-written thing between you and Ezar in Boundaries, and that half-written thing with you and Alys based around Mirror Dance. And that half-written thing about you and ImpSec after the Pretendership. And that half-written thing about Aral on Beta. It's only 8 days into the year, how did I end up with so many half-written things. I'm not going to start on Yet Another Thing that involves assassins and enemies and will probably top out at 50,000 words. Or that thing about you and Ivan. Or that-- nevermind.
P.S. Stop jumping every time the word "Security" comes up in my documents. It inevitably means "Collateral", not the other kind of security.
Dear Ezar,
Stop sitting in the corner and rubbing your hands and cackling with glee. Seriously.

Oathbound sounds wonderful, and as someone who's pathologically incapable of writing Aral without Simon turning up and vice versa, I know exactly what you mean. I had to wrestle with the Shards AU when it suddenly tried to turn into the story of how Aral and Simon met in that universe.
And fics about Ezar are always good!
... I'm not helping,am I?
Oh, and I have the same reaction whenever 'security' pops up :)
