Summary
The title’s a play on words. This is imagined Ballum-related scenes that take place around those screened. Fillers for when the boys are absent from our screens, contemplating what they might be getting up to, or interpretations of what wider motivation was behind the existing scenes. It’s my attempt to tie up loose ends, deal with plot anomalies & generally try to work out how disparate scenes could have linked.
Wher possible, I reference the scene each chapter follows on from, often quoting one of the characters’ final lines from that scene as an aide-memoire. I will stay largely true to canon, although on the odd occasion may misrepresent the true order scene were played out in where that would suit my narrative better!
The explicit rating is there to cover those chapters depicting sexual content - while not frequent, these do exist where I feel Ballum's sexual relationship has something to add to their narrative. I always give a warning of sexual content ahead of any chapter containing it, so those of a more sensitive nature can skip past it if they prefer.
Comments, thoughts & musings are all welcome!

BBC Studios have announced that 'Steffan' will become the new Executive Producer for EastEnders in the new year as Jon Sen, who has overseen the show for the past three years, has taken the decision to step down from the role.
My name is Steffan and this fan fiction will see me as the executive producer of the show, looking at the drastic consequences that follow if the bomb did go off as the clock turned midnight on New Year’s Day.
My take on 2022's EastEnders will take the show in brand-new directions with thrilling storylines and exciting, new and diverse characters along with the return of some familiar faces.
