I forget when, but long ago when I used to have conversations with Kurt Busiek he once said that the secret of writing other people's characters was to put them in a new situation, have them respond in a way readers didn't expect, then show how the response was entirely in character based on what has already been established.

How I miss him on Avengers!

Grounding for a month loses some of its teeth when the Resolution War starts at midnight.

Sorry for the late reply... I was out of town for the weekend, and oddly my tablet is never able to find the PV's server when I'm away from my home internet.

I'm sorry for the late reply to your reply. I'm really struggling with work/life balance right now, worse than in a long time.

I'll be back with more detailed thoughts, but I really enjoyed the scenes at Hagatha's... it was a fun cast to assemble there.

Glad you liked it. By all means comment away. The discussion does sometimes help me to get round to wrtiing things. And since I know the next - probably last - issue will be a bastard to write I'm having trouble getting started.
