Oooh, this is good! This is *really* good! Right from Part I, you had me hooked, and each part just keeps getting better.
What everyone has already said. I loved the 'please be positive/negative' back-and-forth going on as Lois considered what she was getting herself in for.
I wanted to tell you that I think you are doing a very good job in setting this up, and taking it forward. One of the reasons I don't write fanfic is that I often come up with an idea in my head, but as I play it out I find I usually paint myself in a corner and have nowhere to go. Does that make any sense? Anyway, when you started this story, I was wondering where you would take it, and I am just amazed at what you are doing!
Have a nice trip. Come back soon. Post Part 8!
