Well, after a lot of encouragement (okay, two e-mails, one of which was from myself) I decided to embark on a new adventure--a full-length chapter story.
The title is from that fabulous old Mack Gordon/Harry Warren tune, "At Last", which I think everyone will agree I did not write. All chapter header quotes are from Elizabeth Peters' even more fabulous novel Crocodile on the Sandbank, which I also did not write (alas!) and which I suspect Stephen Sommers, or someone else who worked on the movie, must have read at some point.
Incidentally, neither Peters' characters nor Sommers' belong to me, a fact which, besides causing much wailing and gnashing of teeth, means that I need to remind everyone that I'm not making any money off of all this fanficking.
