Hi everyone! This is my new story – my first Instant Star posted on , but I posted one over at DLS prior. This will probably end up there, too, but for now…
Things to know about 'Unready, Willing & Able':
Rated T for language as of now. Should I decide to delve into the land of smut…I suppose the rating would go up. I haven't decided yet!
Besides Jude & Tommy's impromptu kiss on her 16th birthday, they have never attempted a romantic relationship. All the events still happened, just platonically – Tommy did leave Jude in the middle of the street when he left for Montana, but they were out to dinner as friends; Hunter did kidnap Jude after her 18th, but because she was the closest one to Tommy friend-wise, not romantically.
Jude and Tommy share a very flirtatious, friendly relationship. Pretty much the same as the show, save for when they dated and macked it all the time.
Jude is 18, almost 19, Tommy's 25. Kwest and Sadie are still together, engaged. Stuart Harrison lives at home with Sadie and Jude still (I guess the Yvette thing didn't pan out? Not important, I promise). Victoria is still in Europe with Don. Darius still owns G Major, yada yada yada, things are generally similar a la seasons 2-3.
Also, it should be noted that I created this fic with a different fandom in mind. I was all set for that, but it's a book series, and I generally feel more connected with people I can see and hear (aka TV shows, I guess) and I decided I wanted to switch it to Instant Star fandom. I still think it works, but if anything is reeeally out of character (moreso for Tommy rather than Jude, as the female protagonist in both fandoms is really similar, I think) then I apologize for discrepancies.
Other than that, I think that's about all there is to say! I'm really obnoxiously excited about this story, so I hope everyone likes it. If you have any questions let me know, but mostly everything not mentioned in here should be included in the story.
Happy reading!
