Summary: Everything Bodie knows about the world he lives in is turned inside out one day when he meets Ray Doyle. The same man Bodie has been dreaming about his whole life. Doyle is the leader of a terrorist group who works to set the British islands free from the Germans, and Bodie works for the very people who are trying to take the terrorists down. They both have a mission, and they will stop at nothing to get what they want, and it all falls apart when Bodie's long time partner decides he has a part to play too.

Notes: I want to say a big "Thank You" to all the moderators: Draycevixen draycevixen, Norfolkdumpling norfolkdumpling, P. R. Zed przed, Saintvic saintvic, Sc Fossil sc_fossil and Sineala sineala.

A big "Thank You" to JoJo solosundance, Sc Fossil sc_fossil and firlefanzine firlefanzine because without your help this fanfic wouldn't exist grammatically, or in any other way either really. You've all been a big help, and I greatly appreciate it. Then I would like to sat "Thank You" to the ci5_boxoftricks community, and everyone who has supported me there. And last but not least I want to thank my family and friends, who had to stand my constant blabbering about my text. Thank you guys!

Then a special paragraph for my wonderful and ever supporting artist, firlefanzine firlefanzine, who has created something amazing for me to add to this big bang fic, "Thank you so much"!

Based on the Korean movie 2009: Lost Memories, with the great actor Dong-gun Jang. I've borrowed a lot of stuff, but I've also added a lot of stuff so... It was a take and share moment between me and the movie, and we do love each other.

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Omg, you have no idea how excited I am about this fic! I've been looking forward to it since I read the reveal description and now it's heeeeeeeeeeere. And I have to wait until tonight (it's 10:45am here) to download and read, bah.

[scherwood]

\o/ \o/ \o/ \o/ \o/

Yay! I'm so happy you've felt that way!!!!!! *hugs* :D
... and I know about having to wait.. blah... stupid time. *g*

[squeeful.livejournal.com]

I loooooooooooove alternate histories and an alternate history with B/D? PURE AWESOME.

[scherwood]

*blushing*
I hope you'll like it then. *hugs*

It was a pleasure to create the art for such a thrilling story!
The very unusual constellations caught me right from the beginning(hehe...), and I wanted to know how you're gonna solve that problem.
Oh, and I like your Tommy! - the poor guy.
But I better stop here... :-)

Thank you!

[scherwood]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy for the artwork, and your support! :D

Ah, you mean Tommy and Bodie..? hee - I hope it works. Because I've always wanted to create a fic where Tommy's not the crazy guy. *g*

*love*

Congratulations on posting. :D

I know you put a lot of energy into wrestling it to the ground and now you get to sit back and enjoy a hard earned rest... may I suggest that it's tasty beverage time.

[scherwood]

Thank you! :D

Yes, a LOT of energy.. geez, writing something in englsih is hard work.. *g*

And yeah, I think I earn some pure malt and maybe swissroll? *grin*

[smirra.livejournal.com]

klings glasses with you (with pure malt 45% o_O)

Congratulations, dear!

[scherwood]

Thank you! :D *klings back*

[cloudless-9193.livejournal.com]

It's seems to be a rather unusual story, and I'm looking forward to reading it!
Firlefanzine's artwork is gorgeous. The two different themes make me curious about what's going on. The perfect teaser! :-)

[scherwood]

Yes, it sure is. *nods*
.. and I'm happy it caught your attention. *bow*

The art sure is. It's great! *love the artwork*

Hope you enjoy!

[snailbones.livejournal.com]

Congratulations on getting there!

It sounds fab *beams* I'm being good this year and reading everything in posting order, so it'll be a while before I read it... but whoohoo, I can't wait! *\o/*. *g*

[scherwood]

YAAAAAHOOOOOOOO!!!! \o/

It sure feels great.. and I'm happy you have a way of reading all the fics (maybe I should do it that way too.. hmm, I think I will).

Enjoy! *love*

The plot in itself sounds fascinating and then we've got the bonus of having Bodie and Doyle in it as well, so I'm really looking forward to reading this.

Well done and thank you!

[scherwood]

Thank you! *bow* :D
Yeah, everything is better with a bit of Bodie and Doyle in it. *g*

Thank you! It feels great. :)

[solosundance.livejournal.com]

Yay, congrats on posting!

[scherwood]

Yay!! Thank you!! :D *hugs*

[saintvic.livejournal.com]

Oooo fantastic, huge congrats on posting and now I just need more hours in the day so I can read this as it sounds great.

[scherwood]

Thank you! *hugs*
LoL - I know what you mean. *nods* ;D

[smirra.livejournal.com]

Congratulations to both of you! That looks like an interesting read! Well done!

[scherwood]

Thank you! :D
I hope it's good enough. *g*

[merentha13.livejournal.com]

What an intriguing story! This was a very clever idea and you did it quite well - from the comments it seems many people still have to read it, so I won't give things away with my comments - but this was terrific!

And firlefanzine's artwork is gorgeous!

Congratulations to both of you and come join the rest of us "post-posters!" We started the celebration with chocolate, but a pure malt sounds good!

[scherwood]

Thank you very much! :D *blush*

My artist is great! \o/

Yeah, I'll gladly join you... breathing for the first time in months. *g*

[golden-bastet.livejournal.com]

Oh - that was as incredible as I was hoping. Fast-paced, all sorts of intricate switchbacks in quite the plotline: the story was a lot of fun and a joy to read!

(And yes, I sat down and read it in one sitting.)

And thanks muchly to firlefanzine for the artwork (and the love for Crazy Tommy). It's got the look of a pulp fiction paperback - which is the exact level of excitement it should have.

Thank you both very, very much. :D

[scherwood]

Thank you! *blush*
I'm happy you liked it. :)

(wow - that's great!)

I agree with you about the art. *nods* :D

[liriel1810.livejournal.com]

Thank you for posting! I've downloaded it and am saving it until my insane schedule lets up enough to allow me some reading time... I will be back to comment then!

[scherwood]

Thank you! :D
I'm happy I managed to get it all done. *breathe out*

Enjoy!

[catofwitch.livejournal.com]

Wow!! Someone should buy your story and make it a film! It's wonderful! Not matter in which world, the lads always drew to each other and watched each other's back. I just love it! Thanks for writing such a brilliant story!

[scherwood]

LoL - it's from a movie... I FORGOT TO ADD THAT!! AH! *runs off to add that* *face!palm* Thank you for reminding me. :)

Thank you very much for enjoying the fic! *bow* (even if it wasn't totally my idea I hope *g*)

[golden-bastet.livejournal.com]

Really? I was thinking it might've been Kevin Brownlow's It Happened Here! And I even follow Korean movies - but I haven't heard of this one - so I'm going to have to track it down...

[scherwood]

Yeah, and I'm sorry I forgot to add that. *bow*

No, it's 2009: Lost Memories. But they look kinda similar. *g*

[krisserci5.livejournal.com]

Great read! Enjoyed myself.

[scherwood]

Thank you! :D
Happy you liked it.

[moth2fic.livejournal.com]

How brave and adventurous of you to use the alternative timelines idea and put our lads into the mix! Of course, it helps that they were brave and adventurous too.*g* A truly unusual story.

I have already congratulated Firelfanzine but will say again how much I enjoyed her art.

I am stunned that you can write such a long and complex story in another language - congratulations! My French and German are perfectly adequate for reading novels but I could never imagine writing one!!

[scherwood]

Well, I love that movie so.. :D
I'm happy you liked it!

Yeah, she's great. *proud*

LoL - I'm surprised with myself too. *blush* But it's not as easy as I would have liked it to be.. it's a struggle.. but it's a struggle I want to win.. *g* :P

[angel-ci5.livejournal.com]

I'm very behind with reading, but I've safely downloaded your story and I'm looking forward to it! It sounds fascinating, and the artwork is a lovely enticement! Thank you!

[scherwood]

Thank you! :)

I love AUs, and you've created a very intriguing one. I love how you move between the timelines and keep us initially guessing about exactly what's going on. And the final climax is superb. Lovely stuff.

[scherwood]

Thank you! :D *bow*
I'm so happy you like it. *blush*
It sure was a great fic to write, and even Bodie and Doyle seemed fine to help me along.. not making it more difficult by not talking to me in my head. *g*
