So this piece was an alternative to section 2 (In His Own Med Bay) from A Prize for Good Behavior because the original one I'd written (the one I wound up keeping in the fic) had enough similarities to the +1 section (In His Own Damn Med Bay) that it might throw a reader off. I worried that it lost impact because of the similarities. I also worried that McCoy's sarcasm and continual putting off of Chapel would go against the "being a good patient" theme of this part of the fic too.

I didn't want to lose out on having Christine Chapel in there somewhere being perceptive and supportive (or kickass and take-no-prisoners, as above), so I wrote this as a possible alternative.

In the end, the original section 2 was a lot more fun to write and reread and it had more impact on the story, I feel, both for Bones himself and for beginning to hint at Bones & Spock having something going on, even if it kinda reads as preslash at this point. So with the help of my friendly, lovely beta I kept it that way and poor McCoy and Chapel snippet got tossed. Until now, that is.

I have nothing else to offer fandom-wise at the moment, so I thought I'd toss it out there.

I wrote a silly, easter(ish) themed ficlet for the kinkmeme, but haven't decided if I'll post it yet. It's fairly ridiculous, but perhaps I should archive here for the heck of it. Hmmm.
