You know, I was going to say things are getting tense, but I could say that about a lot of the chapters

Which is a good thing, it's good cause it keeps us readers on the edge of our seats!
I liked this line near the start
He left the office half an hour later after a long conversation about grinder repairs and suddenly wondered when things had stopped being about Stivik.
I guess Nick got more than he bargained for in his meeting with Arnie
And of course, as usual I liked the scenes featuring Groll

You sure know how to get all the comedy out of him

And good ole' Arthur, aggressive as a meep XD He's the sort of slig Arnie needed in the factory. Although I remember when the RP filled up with heaps of "nice" sligs it kinda caused problems, but Arthur was good.
There were a couple of bits that did seem slightly rushed, but I guess there's not really much you can do about it. It still seemed to flow ok though. Looking forward to your next chapter
