Thank you so much for reading this, thesmallhobbit! It was kind of you to take the time to comment, and I'll have to thank fengirl88 for being kind enough to rec this! :-D I'm very happy that you were able to visualize Buckingham and Shaftesbury together and got a kick out of seeing Buckingham hiding in the priest's hole (while Castlemaine took care of his wronged husband) and Shaftesbury easily tracking him down. That scene came surprisingly easy for me for some reason. In some ways, it almost wrote itself.
