I'm glad you liked it!
My creative juices are really sloshing this week and I've just finished writing the next chapter. Its like the first time since Stivik's part where I've had chapters ready in advance! And I'm tempted to keep going (the only reason I've got for stopping is that it's after midnight and I have to get up early tomorrow).

If I get a few more replies to this chapter I'll post it soon. Otherwise, probably stick it up next Wednesday or something.

I spent a lot of time trying to get the science for chapters 16 and 17 right, drawing off of my old knowledge from Psychology and Biology, most of which I've forgotten already. I was halfway through writing chapter16 when I realised I'd got the positions of the organs all wrong. I guessed a bit but so far I've only had to make one thing up!
It seems important to get these things right, though I'm fairly sure none of the people reading this would really know if I blagged it all. 16 was the longest chapter of the whole story so far, and 17 is the second longest, though it seems like a lot less happens Less happens but there's more to say.

Reply! Where are all my fans? Zozo? Gretin? Dripik? ...Zelda--fan?
