The sharing impulse appears to be strong in me right now, so the few of you who care are going to get a snippet of this nearly every day. Here's the Harold and Grace in the Park bit:
( ready as I'll ever be )
The "John's friend" thing is a trick I've used before, most memorably in the last of the Snape/Vorkosigan crossovers when Snape met Miles for the first time and said "You're Mark's brother." Which I have to say is one of my darlings forever.
Also, I appear to have given Grace's father a career in the CIA (or some such) which on consideration makes all the sense in the world.
Oh, and linkage: interview with Carrie Preston, with video at the bottom of the page, CP and ME at the time they were shooting "Til Death." (They are so adorable together. I have to make a concerted effort to keep their real selves out of my head while writing this OH DEAR THE HORROR AND BETRAYAL melodrama. Or, I don't know, maybe it helps.)
ETA: I finally made the explicit musical association that's been tugging at me for a while: Grace, meet Sierra Hull. And also this one. (And also the ones where she's more pissed off. I have Thoughts about Grace, you know...)
