new fic: Radio Nowhere

[hth]

So...I started last week with First Thaw (SPOILERS for "Quarantine" thataway), and now I have this, and I sort of feel like it's a series now, in that it seems to be going somewhere. I DO NOT KNOW, at this point, where exactly that might be. I honestly don't. This will either be a fascinating exercise in writing adaptively and creatively to the contours of seasons 4 and 5 as they come up -- or it'll be a complete fucking disaster and I'll never write without an outline again until the day I die. We'll see!

oh -- and also, spoilers for Cloverfield. Random but true.

Oh, wow, this is a killer piece, with a particularly killer last line.

I loved how Rodney pushed on the issue of John not telling him real stuff about himself. I *loved* how you had John suddenly feel a surge of anger -- that seemed so, so right to me for his character -- perhaps not understanding, even as he's feeling it, all the reasons. I'm fascinated with John as a character and trying to work through what possibilities there are for his motivations/actions/feelings/thoughts, etc., and this is very cool, seeing the way you're seeing him here.

I also love how John ultimately *does* reach out to Rodney and share more about himself -- because yeah, that's how much that friendship means to him, for sure. And maybe he's trying to be more communicative?

Thanks for these. Hope it's fine I friended you - I don't want to miss these.
