I found this squirreled away in my sandbox; it's a bit rough in places that I'll be going over shortly, but it looks like I finished the idea. Which is unusual, I never finish an idea; that makes me wonder why I never made it to the draft forum with it.
But, better late than never, eh? Here it is. Link is no longer accurate, article has been posted.
SPAG errors will largely (I'm sure I'll miss some again, it happens) be corrected as I go back over, so kindly ignore those. I'm more interested in overarching flow and clarity of story, as well as thoughts on the concept.
(Also I think Steven, Steven and Stephen was from a 3Port something or other; if you check this out and remember, that'd be awesome.)
