The first sentence: Jim hasn't really breathed the entire shuttle trip. The last sentence: Jim's eyes reflect the blue sky above him. "Okay, kids, time to go home." The thing that made me want to write it: I have long had a Pet Theory of Jim's Fuckedupness, which is that someone messed with him during his childhood who wasn't Frank or Winona. So I finally wrote it. The biggest problem I had while writing it: I felt gratuitous and Gilbert&Sullivanny to make sure I paired Bones off with someone, but it was one of the blocks I had to get over in writing K/S/U. Why it almost never got posted: I am SO glad those parallel conversations worked, because they alone took me two months. I meant to post this story back in the fandom's summer glory days! The scene that hit the cutting room floor: None of them were having sex during that visit. They refused, o how they all refused.
