I think that taking two stories and combining them are likely to give you greater divergence than some P&P variations where a change is made from canon. I've read a few of those where the turn of events is similar, but I'd expect more difference between these two stories.Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-12090687896207595012017-11-04T22:28:29.468+00:002017-11-04T22:28:29.468+00:00I thought so too, Mary, I'm very interested to...I thought so too, Mary, I'm very interested to know what the Colonel said.Cerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01908542708518435282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3060237114571991862.post-39013052232666048462017-11-04T22:25:55.707+00:002017-11-04T22:25:55.707+00:00I do too, Jeanne.
