Author's Notes: Lest you think I went a little overboard with McHale calling Virgil 'honey' (Chapter 2), it's canon, folks! Yep, said by the Skipper to Virgil in 3 Girls On An Island (1x08) (4:52). Sure, could be said to be a joking tone, though it sounded pretty matter-of-fact to me. ;) I was surprised the line made it past the censors, though maybe it didn't. When I started watching the show, it had been in syndication for years, and I'm sure even as a grade-schooler I would have remembered one guy calling another guy 'honey', joking or not. Anyway, glad to hear it! :)
The title of this story is similar to one of the two Twilight Zone episodes in which Edson Stroll (who played Virgil) guest-starred: The Trade-Ins (3x31). The other episode was Eye Of The Beholder (2x06).
The entire series can be found here.

Fall Fun!!!

Well, it continues to be fall fun around here! :)

Enloying the brilliant autumn colors and working on Halloween fic. My multichaptered story is being steadily posted but, alas, my one-shot Halloween-inspired fic won't meet the holiday deadline. Ah, well. While I would prefer to meet the dead;ine, I don't want to post anything in a rush. I enjoy the process of writing, so there's that. :)

As always, hope your seasonal and fannish endeavors are going well! :)
