I am a: in love. and b: totally want to read the rest of this fic.

Triple bonus points for the Good Omens crossover.

Well, I am a: glad. and b: totally in agreement with you. But unfortunately constrained by the craziness that is this semester. Anyway, thank you.

And I will totes accept the triple bonus points! Even though I would count it more as a pastiche/homage/shout-out to Good Omens, than as an actual crossover, since I am neither claiming that the unicorn is also an angel/devil nor that either Aziraphale or Crowley is actually a unicorn. Though, wouldn't that be a fic?

In other words: insert montage here.

Brilliant writing technique. I may steal that someday. ;-)

This was great.

Danke! I figured if I didn't have to write the whole fic properly, then I could at least not write it properly with style! Style makes up for many things (aside from overall lack of substance). *g*

And glad you liked! Seriously, thanks.

I may have mentioned already that your writing style has the deeply evil tendency of making me super curious about the rest of this? I also love the unicorn depiction like a madwoman <3!

The unicorn is actually the first thing I had for this. Or, well, the fact that unicorns don't start out looking like shiny white horses with horns, anyway. It's also the first bit I started writing, once Fraser started spouting off unicorn trivia in my head. So, y'know, I'm kind of partial to it myself. <3

I am also quite pleased to have my writing style described as evil, though I have to admit that this is not a fic I could have written in due South without having spent as much time in Bandom as I have. Haha. Bandom has totally done a number on my style!

*loves*

Such clever use and evasion of a tricky prompt. due South really will take anything we can throw at it, given the awesomeness of people like you writing it.

*blinks* I have to admit that I am not used to being considered one of the awesome people writing dS, but I certainly don't object to it! *g*

But on the tricky prompt front, I've found there's no such thing as an impossible prompt (assuming knowledge of source fandom); there are only prompts that still need to be considered from a different angle. But I should probably not shout that from the rooftops or anything, 'cos then I would surely be doomed to meet my match.

Annnnnnnd on that note, I'm glad you loved it; it actually was a joy to write, in the end (though I didn't think so much of the beginning).
