1. First of all, may I say that it's just absolutely wonderful and marvelous and a hundred kinds of awesome that you are writing Guy/Marian again? *restrains self from squealing in a manner totally unbefitting a fortysomething professional*
2. While I'm at it, may I also tell you that Absolution is one of my favorite G/M stories ever? and that your G/M shippy analysis of the S2 finale is one of the best pieces of RH ep commentary evah and I've got it bookmarked for showing G/M skeptics?
3. Oh, and by the way, this story is ... exquisite. Just, exquisite. Such a small, pre-series moment, and you have captured them so well, in all their frustratingness and poignancy and tension and tragic beauty. *melts completely*
4. I understand about the wounds of the S2 finale; it's a bit different for me because I got into the fandom late (after the S3 finale aired in the UK and I saw parts of it on YouTube, to be precise). I don't know if you've seen S3, but I actually thought it did right by the G/M ship (much more so than R/M, by the way ... one word: Kate). Marian still lives in Guy's poor battered heart. (OK, sort of in Robin's heart too, when he's not snogging icky Kate, but really, Guy's S3 arc is all about Marian.) But of course I'm all for AUs! Like Fallout *waits very patiently for update*. And Most Unwanted by hulamoth. Or (shameless self-promotion alert) post-2x13 "Marian returns from the Holy Land, scarred but standing" AUs. ;)
5. Did I say that I'm ecstatic to see you writing G/M again? THE G/M SHIP SAILS FOREVER!
