Date: 2009-02-15 06:51 pm (UTC)Sadly, that fic (http://valerienne.livejournal.com/8265.html) has become canon to me in such a way that I didn't even need to click the link to know what you were talking about.
We all know that that's how it really went down. I'm just wondering how much hush money RTD had to pay the woman who walked in on them to keep her from spilling to the tabloids.
