Haha, Yes!! I've always wanted to see others put their own spin on D'veen and its characters (which is why I hosted the original D'veen challenge). This was a deliciously dark take on Finton, and not that far from what I see as his "true" nature, which I have yet to reveal in my D'veen tales.

I really imagine that if Finton and I were ever to met in real life, that it would go similarly to this. Finton is not one to take kindly to stories that aren't in his control. Phenomenal work here, L.G., I love, love, loved this!

Thank you so much! It was such a blast, and the language, albeit challenging, was fun as well. I'm a research need, so thanks for feeding that obsession! I can't wait to see how many of the other Easter eggs were located. I will wait a few days to give folks a chance to read, before spoiling any of them!

Having written my own D’veen story, I am in love with your treatment here! Spectacular story and a…killer POV!

Thank you! As I mentioned to Bradley, I had so much fun with this and and it's cool to know that Finton's devilish side was not totally off-base. I swear Bradley and I exist in some mutual wavelength. 😉
