Hilarious story, as always.

Now I have that song stuck in my head... "Her name was Lola...she was a showgirl!" Ah, Barry Manilow...

[ridesandruns]

Thanks! Damn that catchy song! (It's been in my head since I started the story weeks ago!)

[roguewords]

Hee!

“She’s a cat, Jean!” Warren cries, losing patience. “She’s a Siamese cat!”

I really and truly was not expecting that. *giggles*

This is very cute.

[ridesandruns]

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

SQEEE! New R&R story. SQEEE again!

I love all three (or really five!) of them in this story! Warren's comments made me laugh the most. Jean's ridiculousness was great. Scott pulling out the dimples made me melt.

These had me LOL (along with several others, but these are my fav):

‘So you have something to keep you warm at night, darling’!

Have we ever seen Emma Frost and that cat in the same place at the same time?

[ridesandruns]

Hee. Thanks! I had fun writing it!

*speechless*

OHHHHH. OHOOOOOOO. MWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA.

sorry, still spasming in glee from that last couple paragraphs. ohhh, has jean EVER got her revenge!!

i love the ambiguity of who lola is at first. um, fabulous! the snark here ROCKS. can i request a sequel in which emma shows up avec parrot? cause i think that would absolutely make my YEAR!

[ridesandruns]

Thanks! I might mention the parrot in another story, but I doubt I'll do a whole story about it. (I'll keep it in mind, though, I promise. Maybe a parrot ficlet sometime?)

[raphaelle]

*nods* a parrot ficlet is ABSOLUTELY necessary for my sanity. at least the mention of a parrot in a future rant! :D

Okay, so this totally made my morning/afternoon. (I woke up at 12, it's confusing my brain.)

Loved that until Warren shouted it, the reader had no idea that Lola was not a human. And I love how irrational Jean is about the whole thing, and Scott's being whipped on a cat.

Cookies for you!

Thanks! I'm glad you thought it worked OK! *greedily snatches cookies*
