Can anyone give some tips on how I might describe making out in Victorian terms? So far, I've only come up with "lengthy kissing session" but I don't know how I feel about that. Yeah I'm really not sure myself...I doubt I've ever used Victorian terms. What about 'devilish passion' or 'ardent affection' or something along those lines?

I don't know about posting the other parts now. People seem to resoundingly hate this one, even you-almighty queen of angst! I've kinda lost interest in it, as I'm not really interested in writing the same fic repeatedly changing only a few details. We'll see. I know it's a different fandom, but angst was the time honored standard in SG-1 fic. Particularly Jack-whumping. By the way - I don't see any hating in the reviews, just angst for you to post the next part! Got a couple of PMs of folks asking why I wrote William betraying Julia. Umm, I have to write all kittens, puppies, and rainbows all the time?

Umm, I have to write all kittens, puppies, and rainbows all the time? Yup pretty much. Most don't like any angst whatsoever...so I try to put in as much as possible. Lately I haven't been but normally I do. And this is really silly but could you please fix the title to this thread? The A is driving me insane!

Don't know if you've come up with something yet but I vote for combining the above two, ardent passion.

Yes, I researched the etymology of making out-it's from the '40's. :/

Okay, final chapter posted. It's not my favorite, however, it is my first multi-chapter fic, so I'm giving myself some leeway. If I'm ever gonna write a book, I've got to get used to writing multi-chapter pieces.

Finally got a chance to read the latter 2 chapters of this - I'm so glad you finished it! Chapter 3 was uber sexy, and the resolution was very sweet.
