There seem to be some parties (you know who you are) who were disappointed by the WHAM-level of StGTTWE. So, to placate the gentle readers, and by popular demand...  I wrote a TE of sorts for Alicia's wonderful story. Thanks to Alicia for letting me, and BRing it. Thanks to Hazel for the suggested addition. Tomatoes and other projectiles here. 
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

EVIL! Trying to make the evil-in-training shortlist are you?! A ha! To quote Matchbox Twenty, "You have been found out!" But it's 12:38am, and I'm rambling nwo. Way to bring all of my favorite love-to-hate villians in there. Jen

nice TE, rivka.  irene already pointed out my favorite part, but it was well done, overall. and hey, it's not all evil... you killed tempus! oh, and nice avatar. since it'll change in this thread if you change it again, i'll preserve it here so everyone can marvel at the amazing TE avatar. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.lcficmbs.com/ubb/Avatars/thol2.jpg) Paul
When in doubt, think about penguins. It probably won't help, but at least it'll be fun.

 Very clever TE, Rivka. You managed to get in many of the villains (and yay!! Tempus died!), but what about Mxyzpltk? <g> (I sort of like him A lot  ) And that para with the "unfortunately, fortunately..." GREAT! So funny. So when can we see more from you? Saskia

Hazel was right! And just in case I wasn't hooked enough... I eagerly look forward to more from YOU now!!!
So when can we see more from you? I think I'm in trouble...  I'm so glad y'all approve. And you liked my favorite paragraph too! But this time we got a bonus and Tempus died
and hey, it's not all evil... you killed tempus! Was it not clear that I killed off Deter as well? Somehow, Clark could not work up much sorrow, knowing that Deter would never again be a nuisance... to anyone. And Tank... wow, Tank thought this was Oooh! /me whispers: Hey Alicia, I think they liked it. What are we going to come up with as an encore?!

Rivka, You already know I think this was really funny!  Yay, my first story that I BR'd... okay, it was a Tank Ending... Okay it was for my own story... but it still counts . I hope everyone listened to my warning about reading the real ending first . Personally, I really don't like death or A-plots, so I sort of hesitanted because I didn't want people to associate my story with the TE. I sort of wanted the story to stand by itself, but I also liked Rivka's idea for the TE . I sort of wonder how many people knew that I didn't write this TE as they read it (other than the people Rivka told/showed on IRC). And, yes, Rivka, you *do* have to write more. - Alicia I know I should be sleeping, but it is only 1am.
