great post, chris. you've really got a deft hand with characterization. i love what you've done with bibbo, and you've done an impressive job with tessa, too. lest i forget, you seem to be equally skilled at characterizing your settings. you've got a good eye for detail, and it really helps the reality of the story.
btw, nice job with tessa's stage name. i like the reference. wonder what city in michigan she's from...
i also really liked l&c settling their non-argument. very sweet.
but wow, poor tessa. where do you go when even the police... yeah, i can definitely see her ending up at the metro club and being grateful for it.
speaking of which, i like the way you've balanced out toni, the way she was only ambiguously evil in the ep. good job.
nice little cliffhanger at the end, too. wonder where that'll go.
looking forward, as always, to seeing more of this.
Paul
