Personally I didn't mind the exposition too much. Maybe it was because the first part was so completely bare of details and ths fills in the much needed gaps. From a storytelling viewpoint I'd say that it is a much better story now than before.
Thanks for commenting.
The exposition is, sadly, because this is my first fic and am not good at dialog. I hope to work on that.
Think of it as an AU if you like. In order to tell the story I need to take key parts from other incarnations too.
