I'll be hiding here in the corner

This is something I swore up and down to throughadoor I would never let her talk me into. But hey, the curtain's drawn back on everything, including celebrity. it's been a year since we posted the cult of Timberlake story, and I guess that's as good a time as any to talk about it some more.

Which is to say, kel talked me into:

Flesh Mechanic: Not an AU - Member Commentary.


Really, this is much less interesting than it could be. I mean, this thing has been talked to death. but there's nothing like flogging an already corpsified horse. Especially if his name is J. Timberlake.

Thank you thank you for the commentary. (Now I feel guilty for not sending feedback when the story was new, and I have even rec'ced it in my page!) I found so much more now than my readings before. Somehow the scalping fact totally escaped me before. Well, for some theories, a man can't imagine anything that he/she could not handle. (like those children's stories where people are eaten alive and evil stepmothers were killed by making them dance in burning charcoal with iron shoes on and the children are, like, whatever, next story, please!) I love the fic. sometimes I want to stomp my feet and yell "That's so unfair!", when Chris kind of knows that this is not going to end well and when it's said in the profiler report that the first murder occurred possibly after the victim showed fear or repulsion toward the future murderer's violence. I also love the ending. The reader can, and will, choose the end the she feels most comfortable with. If the reader feels uncomfortable without the closure, she can choose one to the end. If the reader is seeking different kind of thrills, she can choose something other.

mmm, that's a really nice way of putting it, and exactly what we were going for, i think. thanks so much for thoughts!
