Reply Subj: Hatty may have to turn that Lairjet around if they don't stop squabbling...

    Actually, the new guys are doing all right together. Heck, even Z and Sally are doing much better than when we last saw them. That must have been an interesting moment, when they first saw each other at the mansion.


They've not actually got as far as the Mansion yet. The team got assembled at WallyWorld then jetted off to the other side of the planet.

I want to chronicle what happens when CZ tries to enter the Mansion. I just wanted to get on with the next storyline first before I got into that.

    The important thing is that they're a fun group, and look pretty promising on this shake out run. I'm looking forward to seeing how their voices all play against each other, and how distinct their personalities are from a writer's perspective.


I've written quite a lot more of this story so I'm starting to get the beats. Shrike writes Alcheman as pretty straight but with a wry sense of dry humour and I'm having trouble nailing that. In fact I'm still on a learning curve with all of these.

    As for abilities, I already like this team. We have a few experts, a few physical combatants, and a few with more out-there powers. Honestly, I thin CZ and Sally could be a great tag team on most any bruiser... But I'm betting that kind of cooperation is a good ways off. Right now I'll settle for no bloodshed between the two.


Well, so far you've only seen the first round of their interaction. "Deep Down" is a title with more than one meaning.

    Nice to see the LL discouraging the hunting of rookies, and Donar is quite the deterrent. Looks like those locals are going from draft day to the big leagues all in one day. Hope they got some good dental benefits from those contracts.


I've got a similar feature cutaway for each character or pair of characters to intersect between the ongoing story of Hatty's mission.

    Fun stuff! Looking forward to more!
