I was going to say "this is worse than the final episode - there won't be anything of Pepa left soon" but then lucky for you you wrote that last sentence and Pepa's back with us.....

*wince* Ouch...I was never intending to kill off Pepa...I'm not crazy. *nervous smile* I'm easing off on the torture...I just need some good incentive for Silvia to go stark raving mad.

Thanks for reading and commenting.

We all know how stubborn Pepa can be. By this point the mafia have realized that she's a lost cause. But she's getting out *grim nod* I'm not gonna kill her off...the wrath I would incur would make my laptop screen explode. And yeah...poor Silvia. She's gone off her rocker, that's for sure. But I need her a lil nuts right now. *chuckles*

Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment. I really appreciate it. :-)

*sigh* raven... darling... lovey... sexy... i love you and hate you right now for the way YOU torture US! i mean, you're totally waaaaaaay more hot and desirable than el gordo (that walking dead fucker) and i already forgive you, but really i'm just upset. i don't know how you're gonna save pepa.. i mean one knot loose is great, but she's got broken ribs, a dislocated shoulder, she's malnourished, she's got infections raging through her body, she's got open wounds all over her face and body... she's sure not going to be the beautiful woman we all fell in love with and i can't imagine how she'll have the ability to utilize this one-loose-knot opportunity. *shakes head, buries face in hands* i love you to pieces, querida, but i'm just gonna go mutter to myself in a corner, rocking on my heels in a fetal ball until the next update... i just hope that one doesn't put me right over the edge. te quiero mucho, mi amor. *sigh*

*chews on lip* Jesus, Xe. Way to toss me on the guilt train. Thanks a lot. I know Pepa's body is like literally broken right now but I don't think Silvia's gonna toss her aside because she's got scars here and there. Besides, there's the miracle of plastic surgery. We'll just pretend that Pepa had Xena's healing abilities and she'll have minimal scarring, k?

[scrubs]

I was actually thinking that too xejanfan. More importantly though, I'm concerned about Pepa's emotional and psychological scars (because I'm a weirdo who's worried about a fictional character's psyche).

She was already going through pretty bad post traumatic stress stuff with just witnessing what Silvia went through, imagine what she'll have to deal with when she gets rescued (she's gonna get rescued right? raven? pretty please? *puppy dog eyes*) Girl's gonna need some big time therapy after a week of torture. I hope she doesn't turn in to robot pepa who has weird violent outbursts.

Anyway, as always, this chapter is brilliant. Brutal, but brilliant.

[raven_bard]

*nods* Of course she's getting rescued. I just needed Silvia's feathers to get thoroughly ruffled...just enough for her to go a lil nuts on the baddies. Ok a lot nuts..like bordering on psychotic but *shrugs*

And you weren't the only one thinking about the psychological impact this is gonna have on Pepa. Each time I wrote her getting tortured my mind kept screaming "you're driving her crazy...literally!" *rolls eyes* So yeah...lots of shrink time and Silvia cuddle time is gonna be needed to make sure she doesn't lose her marbles.

Thanks for reading and commenting btw.

some excellent writing there raven_bard! Yeh! Pepa's going to escape. About time to and all!!
looking forward to the next chapter!!

[raven_bard]

*shy smile* Thanks for the compliment. *nods* Pepa's gonna escape...I just gotta figure out how.

*Tackles you to the ground and straddles you, grabbing the rope you have and ties your hands together. Placing them above you head.* F&$% me, you're a quick one Honey! That took forever for me to catch you. *Rakes fingernails up your torso slowly.*

Oh yeah, you're chapter! It was brilliant! I hate you for the torturing thing, but I gotta say this line, “It’s so very rewarding to see that my going to all that trouble of mixing that salt water had not gone to waste.” made me laugh like an idiot... I dunno why.

But you're gonna have Pepa escape right? And then run into her pelirroja, yeah? And then said pelirroja is gonna go apeshit(1 or 2 words? IDK) on them all ala Rambo style right? Except for El Gordo and that huge torture punching dude. They'll cut their fingers off right? And toes....and of course penises. This comment is getting long.

DIOS!!! JuneBuggy!! Leave the smut to the fanfics NOT the comment sections!!! Dear lord, gotta change my pants now!! *wink

Raven... You had me screaming my ass off at my computer!! WHY WHY WHY!?? I feel like I'm reading the new season of LHDP cause it's suppose to be dark and no romance!! I can't take it anymore!!

*Runs to a cheesy romance novel and hides underneath a blanket with a flash light

[junebuggy01]

Sorry Angiekins bout the pants. But she *Points at Raven.* let my muse go free! And then ran away from me for like a day and a half! I still can't find my muse. Even with Xe's Deeohgee

[raven_bard]

*wince* Sorry. It'll all be over soon.
