So.  Here’s the deal.  This story started off as a fun little Christmas distraction and ultimately I may leave it as that.  But until I make up my mind, until I can figure out if my muse is going to stay cooperative, if inspiration is going to keep flowing, if you lovelies might be interested in reading more or not, I’m not going to mark it complete.  Just a heads up.  

Now that we got that established, a few quick words about this fic.  

It’s a post finale fic.  Kind of.  What I mean by that is, should I continue it?  It’s potentially going to expand beyond the nifty little unexplored year-long time jump Kang and Co. left us with as a parting gift, the same time jump I neatly slotted this story into.  It may morph into a different animal altogether.  Whatever does or doesn’t happen with this fic, I guarantee you I’m not gonna stomp on your hearts unless I kiss it better eventually.  M’kay?  

So.  You got that?  You still wanna read the story?  Cool beans.  

Without further ado—-
