SLDKFJS the 'criticism' made me laugh really hard thank you, we've all been there and it's hell XD you have my deepest condolences. i'm thrilled to hear i'm bringing a new take on the post-manchester fic genre, which i've read a few of as well, when i can get my hands on a gen one. the most fear inducing thing in the world IS being known and here we are, with the worst things jamie can imagine anyone knowing about to be known by *everyone.* it's a horrifying prospect, so naturally, i had to dig into that, especially with my existing like. fascination with sports media and publicity and the predatory nature of a lot of that kind of journalism.
i'm so, SO pleased to hear the characterization is hitting, you don't even know. i worry so much about characterization, and it's just. augh, a delight to hear it's doing what it should. roy's pov is like. i ended up liking it WAY more than i thought i would the first time i wrote in his head, and it's a lot easier for me to get into than i'd have predicted. he's just a very fun pov for me to sit in, so we can DEF see more of him coming in the future. and yeah, 'i'm willing to murder to show love' is a STRONG theme in it sldfjs.
and YES! roy's sister IS making an appearance, a pretty hefty one, more than once, and i really, really enjoyed writing her. i'm thrilled to hear you're excited for that. i loved writing her parts, especially as i decided to dig into the headcanon backstory i've developed for her and roy and their family and how things like... ended up the way they did with them, with roy watching phoebe all the time and what's up behind that.
thanks so much for this delightful comment, and i hope you enjoy the rest of the fic as well <3
