One of the advantages of catching up is that you won't have to get sucked into the Part 7 quickly (she posted Part 6 and then 7 within a couple of days of each other to setup the cliffy in Part 7) then have to wait nearly a week for DC to post Part 8 which provides a partial resolution. As you can tell from the FDK some of us took advantage of the time to speculate on almost anything, I think I was hoping we would annoy DC enough to go ahead and post Part 8
. Well she finally did and will post Part 9 on Sunday when she gets back from her NYC trip.
I think you will enjoy the ride.
