Author Notes[]
First off, hey, a Monday post! Woo-hoo! XD
Anyway, this starts up pretty much exactly where the previous chapter ended. It’s literally no more than ten minutes later, as Fara has talked on the phone for at least a little while, and Rain and her buddies have moved on to Fabio Cart.
Then we get to the last two panels and… well, how do you feel about this? Let’s say you’re one of Rain’s friends; just a fly on the wall for this scene. Does it bother you that Rain isn’t willing to offer shelter to her own brother, or is it sense-making given the situation? On the other hand, is it wrong for Fara to go ahead and invite Aiken anyway despite Rain’s wishes, or is she really being the better person here?
First page of the chapter, and we already get a potential zinger of a debate. I already love this chapter. ^_^
