Oh this is not going to end well. I fucking loved how Chekov seduced Scotty. But. Poor, poor Sulu!! Ahh he's going to be so heartbroken!!

I loved the last couple sentences especially - utterly beautiful.

[dirty_smudge]

I feel more evil for doing this to Sulu than I do for raping Chekov. Is that wrong?

And yes, I do believe it is not going to end well ;)

[dirty_smudge]

I knew that writing the last bits from the two Sulu's point of view was a good idea - we were worried after the end of the first chapter that people had the wrong idea about mirror!Sulu (and of course, it helps drive home how very mean we're being to movie 'verse Sulu).

Ah yes, you may have the right idea there with people communicating with each other re: Chekov.

ASLDdjas I love this so much it makes me want to keymash. Chekov is such a manipulative bastard, and manipulative!bastard Chekov may be my favourite interpretation of him yet, and lkasdjsa somehow this side of the mirror is always so much more heart-twisty painful than the other because poor Sulu doesn't know what's he's getting. ;____; The last line! The last line aaaargh it's like a sharp stab straight to the heart.

Thank calicokat for the last line - I wrote the last bit of this chapter and flung it at her, saying "I can't end things properly - say something about how good the sex is and how much he loves Chekov, or something". And what she came up with was very beautiful.

Yes, I don't think we see manipulative!bastard!Chekov often enough (although that may say something about his fluffy adorable character as we had to drag him out of another universe to find him). I quite like him too. He's fun to write.

Dear Muses, bless!
For some inexplicable reason, I've been wanting some mirror!Chekov and even wrote something yesterday to soothe the ache of my black and evil butterfly-killing heart. Then there was this when I got home. It hurts so good. Thank you.

[dirty_smudge]

Oh gosh, I was reading some of your stuff last night :o

Mirror!Chekov is the most delicious flavour of Chekov. Bless his manipulative little heart. There can never be too much mirrorverse fic - I hope you end up writing something too ^__^

[jessofthebugs]

I did! I did! OOOH! Go lookit! That's a link to the archive comm. It's the first one, called "Mirror of all Courtesy."

*lookits*

Why do I like this evil Chekov so dang much?? He is just so fun. As much as I feel sorry for Sulu, I can't wait to see how Chekov's evil plans unfold. Gah, this is the best series ever.

Seriously, DYING for more. You guys are pure awesome!

[dirty_smudge]

Hmm... let me think... is it because he's so frickin' adorable? Yeah, I think that might be why ^___^

We'll try to write the unfolding of the plans slightly faster than we did with this chapter, which lay dormant for at least a month or so while we failed at life. Stay tuned <3
