I had to practically beat the sex scene out of them. For some reason, despite Bond's canonical massive easiness, they just did not want to have sex. Thet just wanted to brood about their Problems. That, and trying to keep Felix sounding vaguely like he does in the books, but also like somebody from Texas might conceivably sound was a challenge, since 50s slang is not my strong point.
I think it may be the only Bond/Leiter fic on the internet, which is a terrible crime against subtext (how many characters have literally given up their right hand for another character? Not many).
