Dunno, is the simple answer. On the one hand, I liked the ending a lot, I thought it worked, but I'm not ready yet to revisit Sam/Gene in the light of What It All Means. On the other hand, if you advertise a pornfest as including Ashes we'll be utterly swamped by Gene/Alex stuff and by people bitching that the very existence of Sam "takes away" from Alex and therefore shouldn't be allowed.
Hmm, how about allow Ashes but make it slash only? *iz evil* I'd be very happy to read some Litton/Bevan, or 'Ray enjoys the reminder of what real Manchester men are like until he realises that they're both standing too close to him and...'
Thirdly, and I don't know which side of the argument this is, I'm beginning to think that those of us who are prepared to entertain the notion of the five series being just one universe - particularly those of us without 'expertise' - have nowhere to go. Rambling now, sorry, it's way past my bed-time.
