Yeah, you do tend to go for those cliff-hangers. I did a lot of that when I wrote chaptered stories in the HP universe.
"Bound" was a working title, mostly so that I could stop calling it "Training Sim Fic" when I saved the file. But yes, it's forgettable. I want something that really encapsulates it, so... I'm brainstorming. I hope they'll let me change the title later because... *drumroll please*
I just submitted it. With seven goddamned minutes to go before the deadline.
The final word count was 59,189. I know I'm going to do some more edits as I go. Hell, they said they'd accept stuff that was 90% done, so I won't feel too guilty if I add or tweak or alter things. (Like the title.) But yeah, the fic is fucking huge.
And I really need to go to bed now, but I'm too damned WIRED. *thud*
Let me send you the final copy. Look at it whenever you get a chance.

Oh, and when you beta it... feel free to rip me apart if the "I love you, too, Bones" thing didn't work. I don't want this to be a romantic love at all. I want this to be a bond that forms between these two guys that's stronger than that. Also, tell me if the awards I give them seem over the top, or if it makes sense to you.
