Enjoy!

Ahaha I knew it! I was waiting for a reference to the conversation of last Tuesday to come up, and it did
And nice cliffhanger Timeless

You were waiting for it, were you? Well, I couldn't leave the argument from last Tuesday out, could I? It's a classic!

And yes, I wanted a cliffhanger. What'll happen, do you think?

Oh, I love the very last line! Who could say no to such an offer?

Could Gambit? His answer might not quite what you expect... I think it's safe to say that line's gotten your attention, though, right?

Oh it definitely did!

What do you have in mind for him?! Your answer somehow makes me expect he'll refuse her offer in the next chapter, but I wonder how long it will last.

Oh, something. I don't want to spoiler it, but it's not going to be perfectly straightforward. Gambit's going to throw Purdey (and us) a bit of a curveball.

Please Timeless, can we have part deux of your fic?

Which one? I'm guessing you mean "The Question." Am I keeping you in suspense, or something?

That's the one! Please? I'll send you a bag of marshmallows in return?

Don't you want to savour the suspense for a little while? No? Well, I'll see what I can do. I've got some work I should be doing.

No not today, I'll be too tempted to read it and I really need to finish my essay!
But I wouldn't mind it after tomorrow, once I've finished writing

I wouldn't dream of distracting you, Philippa (much). I don't think I'll get to uploading it today, anyway. But we might manage it as a reward for essay-completion.

Hee, what about me? I've done my writing for today, I've been a good girl.

Just kiddin', tomorrow's fine!

Aww, I want to give you a treat, but then I'll distract Philippa. It'll have to be tomorrow for other reasons. Hope you can wait that long!

Patience m'dear. I'm sure it'll pay off

I hope it does. I'm feeling the pressure now!

Good. 'Cause you know what I'm going to ask for now, right?

I thought as much. I'll see what I can do.

I'm entirely to weak when it comes to people who like fic. The conclusion of "The Question" has been posted. Let me know if it works out the way you expected.

Good - I will bear that in mind.

Thank you darling!

Especially people who like my fic. Now you know my weakness--curses! Enjoy!

I loved the ending! It was perfect. Purdey and Gambit together are perfect (or at least close enough).
I left you another review as well.

Thank you for the review, Philippa! I'm glad you liked it. Purdey and Gambit are really meant to be, aren't they? One of these days I'll get to the fic in the arc where they finally figure that out. Couple of other things need to get done first (although I wrote like 150 pages of that one before needing a break ).
