Ah, feedback. Nectar to the parched author's spirit.
folc4ever, that "fly on the wall" perspective is in the next chapter - as is the answer Marcus' question about Perry being clear on what's really going on.
Michael, for a beta with a lot of the story already in your possession, you're being quite cagey. And I think I like thinking of Stern as an honest Darth Vader.
I've not yet seen "The Last Jedi," although I certainly plan to do so. I just haven't wanted to challenge both the crowds and the cold temps in my current physical condition. I believe that Lois' reaction to Perry's news will tell us a lot about her current mental state.
Next chapter up in moments! Stay tuned!
