Thanks for the rec-- I think I've read this, but I'm enjoying it again. (Or I was before I went to the eye doc this morning-- now I'm a little too blind to read. But does that stop me from typing? Nah....)

On my story-- who knows? I'm not much into ship fic, as you know, but at this point, anything's possible. I think In Loco was being announced on one of the HGSS live journal sites when it updated as if it were ship fic. For what that's worth. But the other reason not to rec it is its extreme lack of completeness.
