Heh. The idea for Perth is actually a couple of years old - that's how long the "That... that's Perth over there" sequence has existed - but I didn't want to mention it anywhere else until I got the chance to release that part. :)

RL-Geoff enjoyed that label quite a bit.

>Awkward word choice, Mr. Grissom.

Making awkward word choices when dealing with sensitive personal issues is something of a métier for Dr. Grissom, alas. We keep wanting to send him to a class or something, but he's too busy...

Indeed, though he's stretching the truth slightly to make it. It wasn't his charm that turned Natalia, technically, it was Tony Stark's. But, as Conan's biographer said, that's a story for another time.

Among other things. We'll get into this more later.

Fulcrum isn't dead, it's just sleeping. That's less likely to happen to this CSI arc, not least because if I have to, I can do "Outward Trajectory" all myself, whereas Fulcrum is dependent on more muses than merely my own.
