In an interview with the Torygraph, DCam revealed he's technologically inept talked about his recent music choices.

He seems to think Emiliana Torrini's 'Sunny Road' is quite optimistic, but I find it quite sad (but maybe other anons don't imagine she never gets a reply!)

So, I was thinking ... post-election 2015 Clameron AU?

Seems to fit, somehow!

I just found out about this fic. Why and how did I miss it?

It's gripping stuff. I can't wait to find out what happened between the two and why David never texted him!

Nick may have made a life for him in NY, but it doesn't feel like home to him, from his musings.

Boris/Tim coalition: the thought is hilarious.

*hides head in sand and completely ignores de Palin-as-US-president element as it is too frigtening a thought*

“You want to what?” Karen roared. “No way, it’s absolutely out of the question.”

“It is not a request,” said Nick in his most reasonable voice. “My decision is made; I am merely letting you know, as a courtesy, before the announcement is made.”

“This is an outrage!”

Nick’s eyebrows shot up. “Hardly. We’ve been on air for nine seasons. Quite a good run, considering we were almost cancelled after the first.”

“Look, I know you found the election last year exhausting -“

“It wasn’t exhausting, it was boring. I’ve had enough of politics ( ... )

The party was in a trendy loft in SoHo, the décor alarmingly white but for a few dramatic splashes of red. The other guests in their entirely impractical attire looked as though they’d been abducted from the catwalk. Nick felt hopelessly out of place ( ... )

Oh Nick... what are you going to put yourself through?

Just found out about this fill and I'm utterly taken in by it. I can't wait for them to actually meet again, even as I wonder what exactly happened last time. The image of Nick sleeping with his blackberry made me want to hug him tight.

“Very nice to meet you, Nick. I’m Ashley.”

Please let this be Ashley Dupre.

I am loving this fill, anon, especially all the NYU references. I kinda want to beg you to throw in a Jay Rosen cameo!

They ended up on the balcony, leaning on a railing and looking out onto another identical building opposite. There were a few smokers out here, causing Nick to feel the habitual pang for his old habit, and an over-zealous couple in the corner whom everyone else was studiously ignoring. Conversation initially flowed easily. He talked about what he liked about New York (bagels, and the air con on the Subway), and what he didn’t (he settled for the crowds, reasoning that having an ocean between him and his kids was a bit of a heavy topic for someone he’d just met ( ... )

Nick could feel the colour rush to his face, and was grateful for the low outdoor lighting. “It’s not - it’s just that it drives you crazy, after a while, knowing people believe things that aren’t true, and that you have no way of correcting them.”

“Did you ever think of writing a book?”

“Sure,” Nick chuckled. “One of those godawful memoirs in which some bitter, defeated politician spends hundreds of pages justifying themselves and insisting they were right all along?”

“Exactly,” Ashley grinned. “Could be cathartic.”

“Yeah,” Nick idly ran a hand through his hair. Maybe it was time he laid these ghosts to rest on paper; perhaps then he would finally have some of the closure he needed to move on from this whole sorry mess ( ... )

I love how Nick can still be passionate about things and his frustration at not being able to correct people's wrong opinion about the coalition and he & Dave really comes out in this update. I'd love for Nick to write a book in a few years. Even better, have he and David write the book together and in the process find out the other's real thoughts on various events/issues that they may have misunderstood. Now that would be brilliant.

George! *claps wildly* Did he just say David will be in NY too? Oh Authoranon, the things this fill does to me, you have no idea!

Eagerly awaiting next update.

Captcha: secret thoroughly. Well that's a thought.

I love your Nick. And David's coming to New York! And George is going to be telling on Nick! *gets slightly overexcited* Please post again soon, anon.

Nick made a valiant attempt to look as though he was unaffected by this news, but he could tell from the way George’s lips twitched that he had failed. Reaching for his most disinterested tone, he said, “Indeed? And what brings you here ( ... )

Nick floundered helplessly for a response; it sounded horribly as though George was confiding in him, something that had never happened when they’d worked together, and he had no idea how to handle it now. “If that’s how you feel,” he said after a long pause, “why are you standing again?”

George pinched the bridge of his nose, shaking his head. “No idea. Or rather… it’s daft, but I just wanted to win one election before retiring ( ... )

This fic is fantastic - very believable - and I get very excited when I see updates but this anon is one of the people who always skips ahead in books so if you feel like letting us know if there are many more chapters to come before DCam makes an appearance it would be very much appreciated authoranon :)

Authoranon here: LOL no worries, I understand the impatience... If it helps, you will be hearing from DCam from chapter 9 :-)
