Story 252: "Six Times Someone Learns About William" by bugsfic

This was recently added to the nomination post by [livejournal.com profile] rainatlas and seconded by [livejournal.com profile] badforthefish. Written and posted last year for [livejournal.com profile] xf_is_love month, this story might have been used as an example of darkfic in our recent discussion. I read it when it was first posted and liked it a lot. It begins well and has an equally strong finish.

Summary: Certain important moments were missing from the William arc. My attempt to fill them in. The rating covers adult language and situations.

At 18,000+ words, it's not a short story, but it's divided into six easily consumed chunks.

You can read it at two places.

Bugsfic at FF.net

Links to Parts 1-6 at her LiveJournal.

She actually started a sequel which hasn't been updated in awhile. Maybe if we flood her with feedback...
As always, come back and let us know what you think, and please leave your suggestions in the nomination post.

Follow-up. "Shadow puppets on the wall; melded hands forming one body from two bodies but incapable of creating a third, so returning to two clenched fists." First sex, ick. Bugs is a mean plot mistress, quite no-nonsense, but this kind of fanciness undercuts her virtues.
