Re: canon. Sigh. I basically ended up writing out everything that I didn't want to deal with: Sam/the Resistance, assassin!Boomer, etc. So it was fun to offer up a slightly account of events. I especially love the Lassie-like raider.
And thank you for such a lovely compliment. I literally jumped up and ran through my apartment when I read it. You're a brilliant writer, my love, but trust me -- I know what it is to get frustrated when every single combination of words feels wrong or clunky somehow. Writing good prose = so, so difficult. wicked_sassy was an excellent beta, and I don't know if you have one or not, but sometimes it's just nice to get other eyes on things to help point out weird constructions and whatnot.
Anyway, so glad that you enjoyed the story, duck. cheers.
