Thank you all for the feedback.

Annie, I'm delighted that my story went all the way through the groaner phase and back into laughworthy territory for you. smile

Michael,

An angstful story by Lynn? In a short story? help

They are pretty rare, but there are a few... just not this one. smile

Really, Lois? Walking *inside* a man cave?

Literally!

And he’s only doing these heists every other month because he can only become a house during a full moon?
Exactly. One full moon to lad him up with valuables, and the next one to empty him. Lather, rinse, repeat.

Unexpected this is.

Jar-Jar: Meesa likin’ these!

Someone has been watching Star Wars, methinks. (This summer I'll be able to geek out when I can watch for the first time both The Force Awakens and Batman v. Superman.)

Virginia, agreed. Fortunately for Lois, she was not aware of the passage of time.

Laura and Morgana, I'm glad you both enjoyed it. One never knows how humour writing will be received, and that goes double for puns. I also wasn't sure how the (hopefully) unexpected ending would be received -- whether the sudden shift in tone would be jarring. (But, Michael, I hadn't thought it would be Jar-Jaring! wink )

Joy,
Lynn
