[Cable & Deadpool] Post-Second Coming fic

I've already had my little ramble about Second Coming and how I enjoyed it far more than I'd expected to - despite the fact the ending was so predictable that I have had the mental outline for fix-it-fic kicking around my head since around six months before the whole event even started. (I'm not sure who this says more about - me, or the state of the modern comic industry.) It still took me a few weeks to get a measley couple of thousand words out of the idea - I think enjoying the event actually made it harder, even if only because it threw me off my stride a bit, and the result is probably less of an outright parody than I thought it was going to be. But this is pretty much how I deal with Cable/Deadpool related Marvel events lately - good, bad or just slightly bizarre - and finding SC so far into the 'good' category (YMMV, of course) is hardly a reason to break tradition.
