I considered mpreg briefly, but just didn't feel I could do it justice in the amount of time I had. Then I realized she had said she loves aus. I have a small barely-started different au on my computer, but I scrapped the idea of doing that one for your sis; it somehow just didn't seem right -- I'll write that one later. So I started from scratch and let my mind roam around for a while. When I first had the idea, I was like, kites?!?! No way. But it just kept proving itself more and more of an appropriate idea for John, in a lot of ways. But still, I was nervous! (My first au in this fandom!) So, thank you.:)

Oh gosh, I just loved this whole exchange so much. One of the things I love about it is how there are all different kinds of fic! I love fluffy fics, seriously -- don't we all? *g* I seriously think everyone should just revel in how cool it is that we have so many people willing to write, and so many different types of fic, etc.

I wrote m-preg for my recipient, but I think my sis loves AUs and time-travel and parallel universes even more than she loves m-preg. She gets to read the m-preg I write all the time, but not AUs and the likes, since I'm not that great at that. (Or she doesn't like my ideas - like the slave AU I'm writing on) So yeah you pretty much fulfilled all of her wishes perfectly.

Well done!
