This is another story originally written for b7friday.

And Avon seems rather Snape-like, doesn't he?

Rather late replying, but I'm glad you liked it. The combination of telepathy and cloning does pose for some interesting questions I think, and one of the things that makes Blakes 7 enjoyable to write is that it hinted at them without exploring them in depth (unlike the more recent Star Treks, for example). And yes, Avon does have a lot in common with Snape - although, as I see him, he is colder and less trustworthy. Still, like Snape, he is a better man than he thinks he is!
