INDEXING: REFLECTIONS episode #1, "Forbidden Doors."

The first episode of Indexing: Reflections is available now! This is your talkpost and discussion zone. There will be spoilers in the comments here. As always on talkposts, I have partial comment amnesty, and will not be responding to everything.

"Forbidden Doors" was a fun episode to write. It's sort of our season premiere, and I framed it like an episode of Law & Order: SVU involving internal affairs. Ciara Bloomfield is manifest story adjacent; in her original tale, she would never even have gotten a name. I appreciate that. With all these princesses running around, it can be easy to forget just how big the fairy tale world is.

It never forgets.

Game on!

Thank you Seanan! I have a horrific summer cold, and the first episode was just the thing to cheer me up (for the few minutes I'm actually awake and not drugged.)

I like the idea of Ciara's story in happy abeyance-- I've kind of wondered what happens to people who get the narrative's HEA. What was it like for Beauties and Beasts (back before the narrative evolved in a more dangerous direction)? Was it just like the narrative played matchmaker, and that was the end of it? There must have been more to it... Although of course most genuinely happy endings would be outside of Henry et al's job description.

Can't wait for the the next chapter!

I would love to do an old-time team, just for those older story versions.
