What Have I Gotten Myself Into? (Need some help, my dear F-List!)

[nyxelestia]

I recently started writing the prologue for my paperlegends fic. I'm not even halfway done and it's already touching up to 5,000 words. I don't think I'll have any trouble making the 30,000 minimum word requirement (the question is whether or not I can freaking finish it on time). On the bright side, I can definitely say I'm already 1/6 done with my Merlin bigbang fic.

It's a modern!AU, with Prince of Wales!Arthur and PM's son!Merlin. Prologue takes place just after Hunith has become Prime Minister, when the boys are about 10-11 years old. So much fun to write! ^+^ That said, this is a lot of heavy British culture and politics and I'm an American. You can see the difficulties that lie ahead. :|

Any of you Brits (or anyone else very familiar with British politics and culture) out there willing to put up with me incessantly asking questions about the most inane things (i.e. tea, food, drinks, schools, ect.) for the sake of accuracy? Anyone feeling like getting barraged by an annoying and frizzled out me?

Please and thank you!

The reply I got from my militarily knowledgeable friend is this:
SAS with possible SBS depending if naval landing rescue is apropriate special air and special boat service respectively. Probably with RAF helicopter extraction team and army medical corps waiting on standby with liasons from m15/mi6 and royal protection team of the Metropolitan police at the initial briefing of the resuce team.
I hope that helps!
