Tank (who finds all this free time frustrating since he doesn't have the money to do anything with it, but knows that next week the working world will come crashing in on him in the form of a lot of mandatory overtime over the next eight weeks)
Well this is probably why all your readers don't want you to retire from fanfic writing, including this one. We wouldn't want you to be bored.
As for the story, somehow I'm not sure if it'll actually fit in with the story's continuity. OTOH, Wendy did say she took readers' input quite seriously. Maybe she'll bump the 27.5 up to 28 and go from there?
