Hello world.
I have decided to post this because today is the 10 year anniversary of the day I started working on this story.
I had posted this waaaay back when, but I never really had an ending to this story. I got so burnt out by the end that I rushed ahead to a chapter that was more exciting, published that, and then left it hanging. That's not something I recommend doing because here I am 10 years later still working on it in an attempt to complete it.
The entirety of this story encompasses end of Season 2 through about the end of Season 11 and somewhere in the vicinity of 200,000-250,000 words. It's so big that if I put the whole thing into one document, it crashes Word and Google Docs.
Needless to say, it isn't completed – yet. There are some actual holes, which I really hope to fill in, and some areas where I would love to nail down exactly which version I am going with.
The original title of this was Let's Give Them Something to Talk About. For now, I am going to try and post everything into this story. I'll decide later if I actually want it as a trilogy or not, which is how I have written it.
It's pretty much 75% different from the original. However, the general plot is loosely the same.
Not to spoil my first few chapters, but: It's Season 2 finale time. Mary ends up pregnant instead of Annie. Strife and an epic romance between her and Wilson ensue.
I welcome feedback. When I first began writing, it felt stupid to write anything that I wasn't going to publish. Now it's the complete opposite. We'll see how this goes. I'm cautiously excited.
