Wtf: Author's Note for Black Edelweiss: Chapter Seven
I'm sharing this tidbit in a separate post so as the preserve the narrative integrity of my fic (yeah, right).
Over a year ago, when I wrote "Roach Motel" for the first ficathon, my sister was a big fan of the movie The Producers. Her favorite scene was the opening of the play, "Springtime For Hitler", with Torchwood's John Barrowman in the SS uniform (around 1:09ish, in the video below). We both agreed that he was disturbingly attractive.
One conversation about blue eyes and uniform fetishes later (the former I blame on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
roachstar's layout of ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)

Which is pretty certifiable all on it's own, but there you go.

I just love tracking the meta process of my ideas. It's fun to be able to look at the results, then look at the initial spur and be able to laugh.
