Is one of the things that is changing Artemis' role in the PV? A Junior with a somewhat Dark Knight view of her role might be interesting. Perhaps even a brief crossover with him?


> "Like I said: heavy ordnance," Artemis replied grumpily.

Glory does a great job of one-upmanship without the slightest bit of arrogance. A nice bit of characterization. You have a marvelous invented character there, and some day we have to have an arc for her.



Someone once said that the true measure of a character's humanity is how she treats her dog. On the one hand, Artemis is verging on ingratitude and spite. On the other, she's treating Glory more like an equal than as a dog that one has to encourage and reward. I wonder how Glory interprets this?


Kiwi of Crime? Touche, an excellent metaphor for the Penguin. And his chief lieutenants are the Dodo and the Moa?


Again, you express Glory's untainted character in few words but just the right ones. "Perhaps sorry . . ." is very perceptive.


I've been wondering when and for what you were going to use the Epitome amnesia revelation. Now all I have to do is wait for the counter-plot, where we find something essential in the Idiom's actions.


Epitome has almost as many romantic attachments as Vizh by now. Is that why you're bringing in Fleabot, as an expert observer? Or just his usual stir-up-the-pot cracks?

Thanks again for a fun series.
