Hi Doc ive just read Memento mori which I like very much an gave me kind of chills at the end when you wrote “as she dies” plz no killing Lexa I think that would bring you story down. Mb you cld write more side fics where they meet in different places an have smutty times but don’t remember? serious tho I’m loving the asthetic no pressure! Update when you can. :))))

Please no worries, that line wasn’t about her actually dying (I’m not going there), just that sense of ‘dying inside,’ when things aren’t quite right.   

I think there are thousands of fics out there where they meet in different places (and have smutty times) so I don’t feel compelled to write that much :-p  I don’t think there will be more side stories if only because I really really need to get on with the main one.   

Thank you for reading, I’m glad you found something to like and thank you for writing.  

hey doc u on the Wynonna Earp train yet? U like Xena u luv this. this is the show for us right now hope you watch!

I don’t watch much television, really and it’s hard for me to get into a programme if I’m not already predisposed in some fashion. I do see a lot of WE on my dash, lots of praise for the cast, the Wayhaught ship, etc., but it kind of makes me nervous. 

Since you brought it up, does remind me we really should have a return of Xena by now.  *sigh*

Hi Doctor! I don’t write much & i’m pretty lazy about commenting but i’d like to tell you I think The Flame & the Dame & your other stories are pretty good & I’m sorry if you’re not going to continue I hope you change your mind & come back & I hope more people find & read you. Best wishes to you.

I’m so sorry I’ve taken a while to answer this, I don’t know what to say sometimes.  I really don’t expect readers or comments at all, so finding one or two or three is always a lovely surprise. Thank you for yours, I’m very pleased if you found something in them that you enjoyed.  

Now, I’ve not abandoned the piece, I am working on it, but it’s a snail’s pace and I’m always finding something, and there’s so many other things going on.  I did post a prequel/prologue of sorts to fill in the gap a bit while I’m trying to get new chapters done.  

Thank you again and best to you as well.  

What does your perfect world look like?

A bit of the Trossachs, Snowdonia and Newfoundland thrown together, my dogs, my sisters and their kids, Happy Queers, an endless library, no factories, no autos, no noise, maybe a train, proper accommodations everywhere for those with every sort of disability or impairment, a small sporting area for light sabre battles and biannual cosplay events (with holodecks available), a faithful reproduction of Rivendell but with Amazons, a science and aeronautics ‘village’ with dedicated geniuses designing intergalactic transport for when it is Time to Leave This Place and Benes chip shop.

There are constant rumours of Tardis sightings.

Every year we host the Hayfever Fan Fiction Festival.  

We haven’t a flag, but we all hang out our laundry, so.

Ye Olde Relickru Shoppe (YORS) features a selection of fine wines, whiskies and sexual ‘aides.’   There are weekly discussions on the merits of pineapple on pizza vs Just About Anything Else.

Buckfast is illegal, but someone at YORS ‘knows a guy.’ 

Since we live in an alternate reality, we enjoy different telly:

  • Xena is now in her 21st season
  • Clarke and Lexa are leading the Coalition into a new, peaceful era – and Raven’s managed to setup wifi for everyone
  • The Doctor has always been a woman. Except that One Time  
  • The Hermione Granger films are still very popular
  • The L-Word is a chat show dedicated to all things Lexa
  • There is a 24-hour w/w channel featuring productions of @Steklir’s More Women Than Warriors, @entirelytookeen’s The White Queen Running, @femininenachos‘ Don’t Want to Be Your Girl and so much more.  Sundays are dedicated entirely to short films based upon @coeurdastronaute‘s prompts and @unicyclehippo‘s various head cannons. 

Quidditch Wednesdays are on hold until we sort out the Recent Deaths

Do not speak to the Empty Woman in the Fountain.  She will correct your grammar and insult your choice of clothing

If you see a Clockwork run down, please wind it up. It’s rude to just leave it there 

If you fail to wind a Clockwork and it comes after you later, that is Your Own Fault and We Will Not Pity You

The phone boxes are entrances to parallel universes, so only use when Necessary

There is a Monster in our loch, everyone has seen it and it doesn’t mind the odd selfie – it does love chatting with terfs. We never hear from them again for some reason (hence our country is free of terfs) 

If you have a fidget spinner, You Must Share It 

We’ve no leader, but the Oracle sometimes dispenses advice which she advises not to heed 

We’re mostly atheists and agnostics, but there is a church somewhere near the standing stones and everyone is free to participate, whenever it appears (usually on a full moon) 

Howdy Doc can you tell us what was in the briefcase the man on the train was carrying? Is that what exploded? Will Clarke and Lexa remember this event later on sometime? Its sad if they don’t know but I kind of like it too? Like it adds something? Anywhoo please update soon!

Since this is a film/detective noir, I’d wager the item was a MacGuffin.  It isn’t what exploded, however.  I could be wrong, though.  

It’s doubtful they will remember meeting, but it might very well come up that they were both on the train when it exploded.  I agree that not knowing sometimes adds a dimension to their relationship that might give the reader more to imagine or angst over. 

I am working on the next update(s) as my insomnia allows.  

Thank you for reading and for your questions!  🙂 

Hi Doc! Since you are open about your own autism, do you mind my asking if any of the characters in your fic are autistic? Lexa gets written that way sometimes and I can see where she might be in this fic but hope not offending or anything I’m diagnosed too and think we need more autistic characters out there. Thank you.

While you won’t read a ‘diagnosis’ as such within the story (Lexa is a cyborg in an alternate 1932 after all and that complicates things a bit), I do often interpret Lexa this way (yes, within this story, too) and see no harm in anyone finding whatever they need in these characters.  Thank you so much for reading and your great question.  

I have a questions please! in the new story Lexa tells Indra that something messed with the flame. Is that going to b a problem addressed in the main story? like how it affects her personality or perceptions? was it deliberate? thank you and will we have an update soon?

The chemical used to knock out Clarke and Lexa (and induce memory loss) did affect the Flame, but it was entirely incidental.  It will be an ongoing concern for Lexa as the Flame is independent of her and should not have been affected.  

I’m so sorry to  be so slow on updates – work has played a part and now Fringe is going to play another.  I do hope to have the next chapter(s) out this month.  Thank you for reading and your great questions.
