Outtakes 01 - finished... and desperately needs a beta

It's grown to an impressive one-shot, reaching Page #20 with the notes and disclaimer and stuff. I enjoyed writing it very much, but as it has implied slash, I don't want to send it to my generous beta who doesn't like that kind of stuff.

So, any volunteers ready to face my creative grammar? I'd be eternally grateful.

Otherwise I'll post it as it is now, but I'd prefer to have a cleaned up version.

Betas

I really wish I had permanent betas, at least in my main fandoms. That way, perhaps people would pick less often on my grammar and care more for the actual stories. :(

As it is, only my Merlin stuff is safe, thanks to [livejournal.com profile] the_wild_iris.

And no, the fact that I'm not a native speaker is no excuse. Even native speakers have betas. I chose to write in English, after all, because the fandoms are English-speaking. So I ought to - and would like to - deliver grammatically correct work. Alas, there's only so much that spellchecker and grammar checker can do for one...
