first time taking a stab at a relatively short and sweet background-winnix-from-the-POV-of-other-people, and of course it had to be zielinski's. really loved writing john outside of the one scene we get of him in 'crossroads'.
this fic is sponsored by: 1) my wet eyes after listening to The Big Zielinski episode of Dead Eyes, 2) failure to cancel my newspapers.com subscription, 3) casual period specific facts in 'job history' by anne proulx. bonus chicago tribune crossword puzzles at the end notes, if you get there.
written for heavy artillery's rolling remix 2024 event. remixed @anthrobrat's lovely Winnix fic, 'A New Kind of Mission.' <3 will be sharing some of my faves (they're all so good though) in the coming days. please check out the collection!
