My thoughts, let me show you them

After watching the first two episodes of SDoaCG and the Belle special, things have occurred to me.
1. The UK credit sequence is SO much better than the US one.
2. What happened to Ben? Seriously. Who is this person? And what did Iddo do to tick off the wardrobe people?
3. Still utterly hate Bambi. A lot. Still find her the most useless character.
4. Glad to know Jackie is just as insufferable I wrote her.
5. Not sure about Duncan yet. My fear is this , that Hannah will fall for him. This is fact. But he will be the opposite of Alex. As in, he'll not want Hannah but want Belle without having to pay for her. That being said, James D'Arcy isn't too hard to look at.
6. I already love Byron and am sad he's saddled with my least favorite character.
6. Dr. Magnanti is fab. She's who I want TV Belle to be, but isn't. My Hannah is more her than what's been shown the past season and what seems to be coming this season.
7. I loved the underwear in On the Street Where You Live montage and the whole ensemble (including the wig) at the beginning of episode 2. (Yeah, not going to spoiler mark wardrobe when no plot context is given.)
So, why do I care? Well, I really am planning to write the sequel to Complications Minor. In fact, I've been planning it and writing in scenes in my head for over a year now. However, I spent a good deal of time last year in a spiraling depression. This was before then end of August hit and the worst thing that has ever happened to me happened. I don't have writer's block. I have plenty of ideas. The desire to get them down is what's lacking. Which is why I haven't written any fic at all in over a year. That desire is returning though. So, get excited if you want (in fact please do, I'd like to know that people still want to hear about Peter and Hannah, and Ben and Monty), just know, the first story took eight months to write, start to finish. I believe in quality, not quantity.

I am happy that you have ideas for a Complications sequel. I had a wee re-read recently and really would like to see more from you! Go on you know you want to...... Please? What kind of shinannigans is Hannah and Peter getting up to and who is Monty winding up these days?

And he is very much not that hard to look at.

Wouldn't think you'd like to keep him with the philandering husband. Also, your worthless sister can afford to rent a flat like that in London. She's not doing all that bad for herself.
I think they are going that way with Duncan only because it's looking like they won't with Byron and Bambi (gag, he could do better). We'll see.
Of course, I'll always hold out hope for Peter! (Speaking of which, you said you read but you never commented! Yes, I'm a comment whore, pun intended, and want to know what bits you liked.)
