Awk!!! - the unannounced Tank ending is spreading!!! I wasn't expecting this type of ending, although I did read your 'violence' warning. At least there was a 'tbc'.
Curious as to why it was Lois you decided to mock-kill rather than any of the other characters?
I'd been looking forward to reading this story when it hit the archives because I enjoyed RS (& LH) so much.
