While I really liked Howie’s ending, I wanted something a bit more final. And this — as well as the ficlet that will follow it — wrap everything up nice and tight.
As for changing Blake’s sister to someone he knows but is passing off as his sister; I can’t imagine someone old enough to be in ‘Nam having a sixteen-year-old sister. Call it slight revisionist history on my part.
