Well said. Going a little rogue or occasionally being an ass is all part of the teenage cycle. Nobody can be good ALL the time. If you don't test the waters of the dark side a little, you don't grow as a person.
ED ZACHARY! Now about that damn cliffhanger....UGH!!!
Awesome chapter! It will be interesting to see how Stacy plays into this and how Kara's parents are dealt with, especially now that Carol and Early both agree with the extreme prejudice option. And the slimy Senator getting a Presidential pardon? WTF?
Wagner and Hans? Didn't see that one coming either. More thinning of the herd, perhaps?
It's probably too easy and convenient but I get the feeling that Stacy has been in love with Kara for a while but Kara never knew but would gladly reciprocate once she finds out. That would bring that saga to the end, once Kara's parents were eliminated of course. Can't wait to see how THAT comes about.
After reading Sister Sister, I figured you were somewhere in the UK. Me mother's side is Scottish-Irish with a wee bit o' German thrown in. My Dad's side is mostly English which makes me my own worst enemy.
WOW! Angry Max and vulnerable Max back to back! Beautifully written. The love scene with Marge almost brought a tear to my eye. And it was interesting seeing "Angry Amy" but I also loved the softer side of her when she broke down afterwards and then became Momma to Jane. Apparently, she can never have enough minions.
And I have a feeling we're not done with Turner and he's gonna have to go down hard. At least I hope both he and his daughter get a major comeuppance.
Oh good, looks like we'll be seeing more of Carol and Stella soon. Well paid School Board? Sounds like someone is funneling money and maybe paying kickbacks to the judge. Looking forward to Alice, May and Carol "setting things straight".
Looking forward to Max explaining things to Mrs. Smith. Hoping she and Wagner end up at the new school. Also, Rick and Max vs. The Board of Education should REALLY be good!
Holy crap, hooked again! Not really a cliffhanger but like those Saturday morning serials of old, I can't wait to see what happens next and, especially, what twisted revenge Amy will come up with.
