awww...thanks, everyone. However, don't let Labrat fool you. She is being VERY modest. I know for a fact it looks a heck of alot better after she gets done with it.
I am really enjoying all this feedback, just hope the next parts don't disappoint, and that the ole' muse keeps the ideas coming. Like I said, I have no idea what the next scene looks like until I write it. And I had intended to make this very short and sweet, but the characters don't seem to be cooperating with me! huh
