NOT A FIC - Deleted Scenes from 'Lorem Ipsum'

[saathi1013]

As promised, deleted scenes from ' Lorem Ipsum.' Abbreviated header follows just in case, but this is not a proper fic, standalone or otherwise, but bonus material from the aforementioned story.  This isn't beta'd or britpicked, not because I don't adore caoilin_noir  (because I do, I really really thank every star in the firmament that she volunteered to

I love these so so so much. Especially that first scene with John and Sherlock - that is gutting.

(Luckily the schmoop at the end - which I also love so^3 much - made it alllll better.)

Hee, thanks! I am slightly Amused that the sex scene comes off so unhappy, and the *cleaning* is the fluff, but it's all about context, I suppose, haha.

Oooooooh! I can see why for some of them, but yeah, I'm totally onboard with why you wanted to share. I liked these snippets very much. Thank you for sharing them!

Looking forward to coda!

Aside from some flaws, my main problem with these was that there is only so much I could tell about Sarah's captivity - and I wanted to keep a definite rhythm of alternating POVs. But I'm glad you enjoyed them! :D

I envy you. You are subjective enough to realise, "I don't need this scene/moment, I'll delete it." Normally I'll delete paragraphs, but never whole segments like these. If I tried to do what you did, I'd probably scrap all my chapters out of the thought, "TOO MUCH EFFORT."

Yeah, clutter for the win. ^^;;

Thank you very muchly for showing us what would've otherwise have been left for the Recycling Bin to OMNOMNOM on. I love seeing what "could haves" there are in what I read. :)

Like I said in the notes, I had a wholly different Plan for the layout of the fic, and when I went to assemble them, I realized these scenes did not fit in the jigsaw puzzle of the final product. Fortunately, I have about six or seven versions of this on my hard drive, so these scenes were all still more or less intact in various versions. I almost did delete the old stuff, but these scenes just stood out and went 'keep me!' despite not being in the finished product, lol. I am glad they were not totally wasted, and that you enjoyed them. :D

*looks around and wonders how I got here*

HOLY...

I realize now that I'm just reading some deletes scenes of what must be an EPIC fic, of which I will be sinking my teeth in very soon. First, I just had to tell you that the sex scene is scorching hot and the Sarah in the hospital scene (oh, GOD, what happened to Sarah?) is what's making me about to start another lengthy fic. XDDDDDDDDDDD

HA! ...How *DID* you get here? I didn't cross-post these anywhere! lol

But I'm kind of amused that you liked these out of context. Thanks for commenting! XD

I read the whole series at one go, and OMG. It was terribly good. Awesome. Hot. Lovely. Good amount of plot and decent amount of smut. Loved it.

[saathi1013]

Awh, yay, thank you! I am perpetually delighted every time someone new discovers this series! ^_^
