diandrahollman: (jacksawyer)
I need to apologize for taking so LONG to finish this story. I could make excuses about my life and my job getting in the way (which is partly true since I've gone through three major deaths in the extended family and been spending a lot more time on work stuff), but I think the main reason I couldn't bring myself to finish this was the sense of finality that came from putting the words "the end" on it. This is my longest, most ambitious, and probably my best story in the Lost fandom. I have not been inspired to write fic in any other fandom since, so some part of me suspected that the minute this story (and a couple other shorter Lost works) was done, I would be finished with writing and fandoms.

That being said...I am currently working on a Sherlock plot bunny that has been biting at my ankles for months. I'll try to post a preview of it soon. Since this is my first attempt at actually participating in that fandom (as opposed to just observing from the outskirts), I would love any suggestions for places to post. Do I have anyone on my friends list who is a fellow Sherlock fan?

Thank you, everybody who has stuck by me while I slowly got through this story. You have been wonderful!

Another Life
by Diandra Hollman

Rating:
PG-13 this chapter.
Date Finished: 1/23/15 (I take it as providence that I finished it on a date containing two of the Numbers)
Keywords: slash, Jack/Sawyer, Alt!Verse, first time
Spoilers: Nothing really detailed or time specific. This just lives in the sideways verse of season 6. Sort of (see author's note).
Disclaimer: I don’t own them. I'm not really sure anyone *technically* owns them anymore but Darlton blah blah Bad Robot blah ABC blee blee don't sue.
Dedication: To ellel for inspiring me to write this story. And to the cast and creative team behind one of the best damn shows ever televised. You will be missed.
Summary: “In another life, I would make you stay so I don’t have to say you were the one that got away.” The One That Got Away - Katy Perry
Author's note: Much as I loved the finale and thought it was totally appropriate this story will henceforth assume that Daniel's "let's detonate a hydrogen bomb" plan worked and follow my crackpot version of quantum suicide theory. In other words, when the bomb went off, our characters were split into two different universes. One where the bomb didn't go off, and one where it did. Both universes are very real and neither is purgatory.
