Notes: Thanks to carla_scribbles and goluxexmachina for listening, and sageness and giglet for beta reading.
Most of the many lines which are not mine come from the play being produced in this story, and are borrowed out of affection and respect for the work. Likewise, the main characters are not mine, and I employ them in a similar spirit without expectation of more payment than words from my readers, letting me know what they thought of the piece.

Fandom: Slings & Arrows (Pre-S1)
Summary: Anyone who doesn't love Geoffrey has no eyes, no ears, and no damned soul, but it's one thing to love him the way the audience does or the way the young company does, and it's another thing entirely to love him the way Oliver most certainly does.

Rating: Adult
Notes: Thanks to Carla and sageness for listening and making me believe I could do this, to Epigone for a careful beta-reading, and to brown_betty for making sure that I didn't commit gross cultural crimes against Canada.

Title: Jeeves's Particular Touch
Fandom: P. G. Wodehouse's Jeeves and Wooster
Summary: I reckoned that a good stimulation of the material fibers might produce some good effect, or at least that Jeeves would have an inkling of its positive nature.
Rating: Adult
Pairing: Reginald Jeeves/Bertram Wooster
Notes: I convinced Te to watch Jeeves and Wooster, which made her both eager to read the novels and greatly desirous of something resembling the following story. Jack, Carla, and Karen encouraged me and Jamjar was kind enough to give it a right good beta-reading.
