Fic commentary for "Homecoming"

So, magic_at_mungos asked for commentary on Homecoming, which is my sole His Dark Materials fic, written for yuletide.

( Homecoming commentary )

If anyone else wants to request commentary on something, please do. I honestly really love doing these things, and I don't get many requests, which makes me sad. :p (Of course, sometimes I'll do it anyway. I do want to talk about With a Little Help from My Friends, for instance, though I'd do it in shorter, more general terms if no one wants to see it with DVD-style commentary. :p)
