   The very last section - when Fenn and Mac meet - comes from a short story I did a while back called Fenn and Mac beginnings. Since it is how I like to show their meeting it didn't make sense to re-write or paraphrase it here. So instead I linked Mac's origin story directly into what I see, chronologically, as the official start of their story together at the end of his origin tale.

   Just amazing Jon! Mac's origin story is wonderful and it reads as though it's part of the vanilla game itself. Maybe I should make Mac as big as yours.
   
   Also I loved when they met eyes with each other. You know it was love at first sight <3

      Many thanks James! Can't have enough Big Mac's lol :) I mainly fell in love with Mac's voice and personality but since I favor large muscular men I needed a way to change him that also fit into the spirit of the lore as that is important for me in my own game play (actual game play - fooling around I tend to do whatever).
      
      Do to the time loop they have met a few times. Once they escape and lived for real they had those memories pushed back deep in their mind to help protect their sanity, by Fenrir. So they know each other but they don't. That was somewhat behind that writing. When you meet someone and its like you feel you knew the person all your life, or a past life, or are soulmates.

   I've read your narrative, and loved it, but this, seeing and hearing it from the characters' point of view, made it perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed it, even re-read twice. (I read too fast, and sometimes just missing even one word can change contexts!) The shots to go along with are just right. Wonderful!!
   
   Edited due to fumbly fingers, sorry

      Thanks Kes and Happy Spring Equinox! Glad you enjoyed seeing the full story. One of the few times I even managed to get what I see in my head to be represented properly in word and images. I really wanted to show that the whole situation with Mac fits in with the spirit of the lore and game world as much as I could.

   Thoroughly enjoyed this and super shots. Especially like that one of Mac lying on the bed with the sun pouring through the window.

      Ah many thanks Etholas, appreciate it! For me it simply adds more depth in my own mind when playing with Mac since now he has some added depth.

   Very enjoyable. I never thought I would say -- saved by the FEV and just in time -- but.. never say never. The light coming through the windows in Daisy's rooms was good -- good in a couple of ways. First, it's a good change of pace for you, if I may say so, and second the sunlight served as a sign of Mac's recovery -- sunny days ahead.

      Thanks much Laird!
      
      Can thank the wonderful mod, Val's Place, that gave Daisy an apartment above her shop. The mod author did some truly fantastic lighting in that place. Beautiful lore friendly home as well.

    The earth shook and time changed in but a moment. Wonderful shots, really enjoyed the ones with Daisy so fitting for how I find her to be in her manners and values and really interesting tale!!

       Thanks Shelley!
       
       A little corny but then all my writing is corny and somewhat over the top. I like my bigger than life characters and light hearted adventure with the occasional bit of serious.
       
       Daisy always seemed like such a sweetheart and its clear she has always liked Mac as well. I always enjoy the little bit of exchange they have.
