You'd be surprised just how many reviewers do think I've had him kissed, on ff.net. Also, how many ignored the clues and are assuming I'm making the dreams a wide-spread thing, instead of very specifically focused. I guess some people's reading comprehension isn't that good. On the other hand, there's the Rule of Three. I can't remember how many times you've mentioned the dreams and who had them.
That's one thing I've found too many other time travel fic have a hard time getting right-- people are either too perceptive, or too blind, about the clues they come across. That tends to happen with crossovers too, especially the "too perceptive" thing. Which is why one of my writing mantras is "Remember what your characters don't know".
Thank you for continuing to be my cheerleader on this story (waves pom-poms) (grin)
