\"CSI_Miami\"<\/a><\/p>\n

You can’t kill someone if they are already dead…<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

It’s how it all started.<\/p>\n

Well actually it started when Rory Cochrane decided to leave CSI: Miami (good decision there Rory) and the writers came up with the stupidest way to remove the character. \u00a0Oh yes let’s not actually put any effort into this – lets kill him because he didn’t clean his gun. \u00a0*eyeroll*<\/p>\n

To quote<\/strong>: Seriously serious with this!<\/p>\n

Anyway. \u00a0As stated in a previous post, the rash of OMG Speed didn’t Die!! Fics began. \u00a0The 10th Anniversary Lost Son Video showcased a few of them. \u00a0What can I say I worked to come up with a million different ways to fix that particular stupidity.<\/p>\n

Then ‘You can’t kill someone if they are already dead…’<\/p>\n

Kiss of Death was supposed to be a one off … waits patiently for the laughter to die down … done yet? I had no idea where I was going with that story or that it would still be in my life 10 YEARS later.<\/p>\n

Today is the actually 10th Anniversary of the posting of Kiss of Death. \u00a0*shakes head* Still can’t believe it’s been 10 years. \u00a0And to celebrate that moment we’re posting the 10th Anniversary Edition of Kiss of Death.<\/p>\n

First off you’ll notice the changes from the start. \u00a0When KOD was first written I was making things up as I went – literally was like blah blah blah oohhh that could work blah blah blah.\u00a0 Now we can look at the story and put in more detail from what we know more about these guys, add in timestamps that were later written that fit nicely in the arc, and basically pull in threads tighter that either didn’t go anywhere or take them up again.<\/p>\n

There will be some changes mainly on the fact some ideas I never liked, some ideas never went any where, and some characters who are annoying twits who demanded more attention.<\/p>\n

Quick note<\/strong>: the original Clan War will not go away. \u00a0It will stay up on the Archive as a tribute from where we started. \u00a0But as time goes one to understand storylines you will need to read the 10th Anniversary Edition.<\/p>\n

2nd Note<\/strong>: Art by Taibhrigh<\/p>\n

Now with no further delay.<\/p>\n

Dear Timothy Quinn – my Speed and my inspiration. \u00a0This … This wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you. \u00a0Thank you from my heart & soul! <\/em><\/p>\n
