Hello! Hope you’re well. I read all of Surrender Dorothy today TWICE after discovering it for the first time. Just wanted to drop by and say it is absolutely amazing and such a masterpiece of a fic so far!! Trying to predict what elements of the show will emerge in the do over timeline and which elements of the show might not exist anymore is such fun! I will eagerly devour any update if you are ever inspired to release a new chapter 😊
So sorry for the delay in answering! I don't get on Tumblr much, so I just saw this now.
I really appreciate your kind words (as well as the reminder that this story exists).
"WHY?" is the most important question to me when it comes to character choices and backstory. I need to interpret the purpose of past events in order to understand exactly who the character is now - even in a story like this where the past...you know. So, without getting too spoilery, I can say that I put a lot of thought into outlining this fic, and found creative ways to incorporate canon events and characters into the storyline when they could serve a purpose.
Man, I really need to buckle down and start writing again, because this Ask just made me so excited to revisit this story! Thank you so much!
