 noonespecial 2004-12-15 . chapter 1 I loved this story, overall found it to be a departure from the normal stuff I find in PG fics. One thing, however, is that you could have added a little bit of a hint for Emma's feelings for Shalimar towards the beginning, I think it might have made the ending feel like more of a resolution, and given more of a picture of the situation before the fic started. Another thing that could have been added to make the ending feel more like a finish is a little more overall tension between Emma and Shalimar. Not huge amounts of sexual tension slathered on like jam; just a little more inside Emma's thoughts and feelings, a particular image in the setting or action, a detail or nervous habit to get a little bit more of a feel for the mood, a reaction that Emma has to something that Shalimar does, or vice versa. A little bit more physical description would also add more flavor and a particular feeling to the story. |
