Haha speaking of that wonderful fanfic, care to tell us when we might expect the next chapter? I'm hearing all these wonderful hints, and it's making me antsy!

Well, what I can reveal is that Patryk and Lucas will reunite, we see Vaughn and Maya, Alec White will make his appearance, and there is a reunion in Section D as Malcolm, Tom, and Ruth come face to face again after years of being apart.

Some other stuff are happening too, but I can't reveal too much! Those are just general stuff, but I plan for much juicier small details of the scenes, so I can't really tell you that without spoiling my whole plot!

Happy to be a reader

I do have stuff for the Harry and Lucas thread. It pains me to say it, but I do feel as though Harry has - to a great extent - been excused whatever he did or did not do in relation to Lucas because addressing this plotline would require some serious analysis of Harry's status as the indestructible line of continuity in the show. I do, seriously and genuinely, believe Harry Pearce to be a brilliantly drawn and thrillingly well-played character. But I also wish we could be trusted with a little more intelligence as to the decisions he makes, and the whatever feelings he has, about people in his life besides Ruth. This isn't a criticism of either Harry or Ruth, just an expression of an interest in their development away from references - implicit and explicit - only to one other.

I always wished they explored more Lucas and Harry, in fact, I thought that was what Series 9 would get into, but alas Series 9 was a failure in that sense.

So now I'm gonna let my story tell the real relationship of Lucas and Harry, the one that the writers SHOULD have given us.

That scene was so poignant to me when Lucas yelled "Don't you dare try any of your sanctimonious good of the nation crap on me! There are limits to what you can ask of people, Harry, even in our line of business."

It was like Lucas's way of trying to get Harry to realize just what it's doing to me, it's like Lucas is screaming "Can't you see what you've done to me, to your people?" and then Lucas leaves but not before mentioning what's happening to Jo.

Oh gosh yes, I completely skimmed the entire affair with Jo. It was so tragic, the way that she was essentially left to her own devices and ultimate her own demise... just because no-one cared enough to realise she was badly traumatised.

And I love that quote! It was so tense, because Harry so obviously didn't want to have to justify himself to Lucas - which is why a trial in S10 would be interesting. Harry would finally be forced to justify his actions, instead of just using the old "the ends justify the means" excuse.

Jo's story was sad, at least Lucas gave a warning to Harry about it and then Connie went to help Jo out. But Jo died a hero, and I think it was the first time that much emotion was shown from Ros.

I always thought Harry owed Lucas an explanation, Connie's words was a cop-out of Harry's responsibilities, which is why in my fanfic I will go back and explore the past of what really happened in Moscow and why it took Harry 8 years to bring Lucas home.

Although I did like the scene with Harry and Ben sitting in the car at the exchange, it was the first time I saw Harry being anxious, at least that's how he seemed to be, like he was worried, as if he was thinking to himself, would Lucas blame me? What would he be like? Have they destroyed him? What condition would he be in?
