Wish list for the sequel:
* Amy meets her wife as a subplot. There's needlepoint and a cameo by Jonathan.
* Raf!
* At least a *few* moments of the Brownstone Thanksgiving. (As a flashback, bc obvs they're 10 years older now...)

I posted my first fic 1 year ago (on the 10th). A 4k oneshot about Henry making crosswords to get Alex's attention.
I truly thought I would write this one fic and then never write anything else.
And, well. That was a lie.

One of the best things about rabbit-hole-ing into somebody's bookmarks is rediscovering fics you loved but forgot.
So thanks AO3 user PeachPearPlum for reminding me of r_holland's We've Been Here Forever. (Alex speedruns his bi-crisis by emailing author Henry.)

Orchid is way too modest to self-promo with links etc. But I have no qualms about declaring how much I *adore* her long fics! Especially:
Omakase -- one of THE best AUs in the RWRB-verse
Wherein Henry and Alex are London chefs, and *everything* is delicious...
