I'm over 10k into this Flight of the Heron fic, with no end in sight. It hinges around a simple premise which is made clear in the first chapter, and as such, follows the last three meetings of Ewen Cameron and Keith Windham, whereafter it diverges. The challenge is this: I can either write with canon, borrowing lines and dialogue as I see fit to better weave the two stories together (I hope) or I try and write my own versions of the last three meetings, which is problematic in that there's a good chance they won't be as impactful as the originals. So far I have chosen the former, but I'm not convinced entirely of it. Anyways, in order to solve that problem, I decided to post the first chapter on here, if only so I can look at it in a format that isn't instantly editable. If anyone reads this, don't take what I have here as final — this is still very much a first draft, and most certainly do not take my Gaelic for anything other than hastily researched.
