Every story u give us is a gift! A dirty hot little story, which makes it even better, thanks

What a wonderful compliment -- thank you!!!

I'm expecting - don't know what - but not this poetry.

You break my heart and put it back together. It's sexy in such a bleak, dystopian way. There's still joy, though. Because it helps Neal to survive.

Thank you is such a lackluster phrase - I am grateful beyond measure for this.

Thank you SO MUCH.

One of the things I remember about The Unbearable Lightness of Being was how upset the female protagonist was that her lover's hair always smelled of other women's bodies. She loved him anyway.

I could imagine Neal reading this and thinking of him and Kate.

I should have known better than to use two books I've never actually read. ;-) Asimov is a favorite of my mother's and the other one -- well, the title really works.

So would Kate's hair smell of other women's/men's bodies? Or are you saying Kate would forgive Neal for thinking of Peter and not her? Or something else entirely that I'm not quite getting? ;-)
