Ah, basking in feedback is so warming.
Michael, I'm glad you like Troia. She's kind of the anti-Diana in this story, even if she would prefer that her sister not get killed by Lois or kill Lois.
Io (may I address you in such an informal manner?), you've hit one of the nails right on the head. Diana is self-deluded and utterly convinced of her own rightness, so much so that she cannot hear the voice of reason. Kind of like a lot of other political figures of all persuasions.
Deja Vu - a pain in the rumpus? Now that's an interesting euphemism. And I'm glad you liked the little humor bits scattered all through the story. I like to relieve some of the dramatic tension with humor. It makes the dramatic parts jump out of the narrative a little more.
And yeah, Perry knows!
Sorry, Tank, no cable broadcast on this fight. As for Diana's relative strength, I find the concept that Batman can at least make her work hard in a sparring session unrealistic if she can make Superman work hard. That would mean that Batman is badder than any fighter or wrestler in the world today by several orders of magnitude, and that either the bad guys he fights are that powerful also or Diana feels sorry for him. I chose to make Diana exceptionally strong compared to Lois but with nowhere near the fighting skill that Lois has. That will play out soon.
And no, sorry, Diana isn't wise enough to trim her hair back.
Dandello, you make a good point about Lois' lack of children maybe not being her fault. We'll touch base with that later, too. And I liked your D&D ratings for Lois and Diana. Is there an overconfidence factor in there too?
Next part up very soon! Thanks for reading, y'all, and thanks for posting.
