Sawwit! Didn't comment though, don't feel qualified in case of actual genuine Angel referneces.

Thank you. Since the show seems to emphasizing the dark-and-dangerous side of Jack, and the fanfic tends to emphasize the sexual side of Jack, I thought it was time to play up to the more abstract, altruistic, idealistic and dedicated side of Jack. Or maybe I just wanted to poke at my own hero-worship.

What fun that Jack has so many aspects to play with.

So glad you liked it.

Oh, never fear, no Angel references in my drabble. Just the title, taken from a list - and what I did was, I wrote the drabble first, then chose a title that might fit.

I watched some episodes of Angel because I like Spike, but my memory of the show is dim and I was never really a fan.

I just went down the list to find a title that jumped out at me, and seeing as Rememberance went down so well...

You did a magnificent drabble. I don't usually save drabbles but I think I will print and save that one.

"Remembrance" is quite a strong theme, isn't it? Especially for a hero with a past like Jack's.

Why thank you! Because we don't know much about Jack, I find it easiest to write about things I know about him.

Yes, I feel the same. Little as we know, it gives us plenty of space to play in. And it saves us from speculation that will simply be disproved later on.
