. Well, except for the part where the narrative emphasis on that one was on the Fritz & MT and Heinrich & FS interactions and ViennaJoe only came in the last reel, which presumably would incense a recipient in a slahsh ficathon. :)

Except cahn. :P But yeah, if I were going to write this, I would go heavy on the plotty AU, as you can tell from where my brain started going with this.

The problem is that I don't know Joseph well enough to make him party to the main pairing, something I've been meaning to remedy, but wouldn't happen in time for this exchange. (Same reason I don't want to write Catherine/AnhaltSophie until I've had a chance to do more research.) (See, I knew salon would give my motivation a kick.)

I'll check what the Stabi has.

Thanks!
