Glad you enjoyed it everyone. I was a little nervous about Chapter One but hey, they are very much in love!!! Now i've posted that though, i think i will put up Infinity Unedited because it's probably no worse, hehehe ;D And without giving anything away, i find it really interesting that everyone was so surprised about what happens in chapter 2. Because i've known it was going to happen for ages!!! Ever since i wrote His Three Favourite Words, in fact. Jacob is after all, a very talented man, in more ways than one. I know my enjoyment of EH is much enhanced now i know what he's really like behind that conservative facade!!!  |

It's so funny because even though it's fiction, it somehow feels like Ru's personality is in there as well, or am I just delusional from the heat, LOL? :-)

No, you're probably right rugirl. I guess i tried to bring more of Rufus (and all the other characters that we know and love) to Jacob, because he was never really given the chance to open up much on the show and reveal his true personality - which of course would contain a good dose of Rufus type cheekiness!!!
I often include little lines which have a veiled reference to other characters - probably too subtle for anyone else to pick up, but they amuse me.
In Chapter 2 (Tomorrow) there's a little reference to one of Petruchio's lines for example!!!

I thought I saw shades of Petruchio in there numbat. I could see some of his facial expressions as I was reading it thought it was just me. The closed eye's the delighted smile on his face etc etc. Good.... maybe I'm not as crazy as I thought after all !  |

I will be on hhe lookout and glad to know a new chapter is arriving so soon! Sorry rugirl, i was referring to Chapter 2 which is entitled "Tomorrow"!!! Have made good progress on the next chapter today though so should definitely have the it up by the end of the week. I'm glad you felt the presence of Petruchio, nell. He was definitely there i think (also when he said "it's either positive or its not positive" as in Petruchio's "either get married or don't get married" - i really like the concept behind that line. Stop worrying and messing about, it's either one or the other and that's it!!!) |

No worries, I am happy to read it whenever it arrives, lol!
As for Petrucchio, I will need to re-read it in that light; it never occurred to me but I can see your point. I always thought he was more like our friend Mick Carpenter, wishful thinking!

No, you're completely right rugirl. There's a bit of Mick in there too - tattooed on Jacob's ass for a start They're probably all there in some shape or form throughout the 110,000 words that i've written so far. Watched Illuminata tonight and realised that a version of one of Dominique's lines ended up in Chapter 1!!! (and no, i don't just mean the f word!!!) |

For those of you who may be interested I 've posted 2 more TOTS stories in dropbox These urls should take you straight through to them. Morning After follows on from Teach me tonight. dl.dropbox.com/u/5081292/TOTS%20The%20Morning%20After.pdfdl.dropbox.com/u/5081292/TOTS%20Talking%20To%20him.pdf Quote from Numbat's Post>>>>>Petruchio's "either get married or don't get married" - i really like the concept behind that line. Stop worrying and messing about, it's either one or the other and that's it!!! I agree with you Numbat . As a self appointed Petruchio student , that's how I see him too. I also see him as life is for living, laughter and fun.

Thanks Frannie - I think I've got some catching up to do as I haven't read any of these yet. Ah - guess what I'll be doing when I can fit it in ? Maybe when the next footie match is on I can slope off and get reading. ;D

Thanks Frannie. I've had a mammoth reading session tonight. Starting with the first TOTS fanfic you posted, the 2nd one wasn't playing tonight. Looks like you had a few problems with that one. Apart from that I've read up to Teach Me Tonight. I'm saving that one for tomorrow when the footies on - my treat to me ! I looks like you're on quite a roll. I love the way you capture Kate's stance and mannerisms and Petruchio (or Piers) of course is just his usual big, charming, cheeky irresistable self. He he can't wait for the next marathon tomorrow night. |
