Here it is at last, after a full month of delay! I’m really sorry I hecked the schedule up so bad, but better late than never.
I’ll be honest – this one doesn’t necessarily bring anything new in my repertoire of works so far, and it pretty much falls between Chains (Re)bound and Monsters From The Other Side (with a pinch of Judgment Call thrown in, maybe?), and serves as my excuse to continue the somewhat Socratic discussion trend between Bill and Ford that my earlier fics have founded. Also character study! Because of course. :>
In short, this fic is my attempt to study the transition from Ford’s naivety to his hellbent quest for revenge that was sorta neglected in canon.
Billford, rated T (hell, maybe even G), no sexual content, kind of sad. Takes place about six months after the portal incident.
”Sign
here, please.”Ford
squinted. The whiteness of the glossy paper he clumsily scribbled his name on
made his eyes ache. He could hardly recognize his handwriting as his own.“And
state your business.”“I
seek closure”, said Ford with the best of sobriety he could pose. “I wish to
put my past behind me and ground the determination I need to succeed in what I
must do.”The
aged creature facing him leant its elbows on the table and gave him an
incredulous look. “Don’t insult me with your fancy words, kid. How long has it
been since you last had a decent amount of sleep?”
