  6. Um, I yelled at OH SNAP at the end and made a strange sort of flaily motion. This is a good thing. Yay Giaan! I love this SO MUCH. I could totally feel the tension, and I hate Damian as much as I love Giaan, so lots. Just fantastic all around, really :D

  8. Way to keep the tension high, both between the characters and by raising good questions,like is Giaan's comment going to push Damian to do something back, and maybe make Giaan regret poking the bear?

  9. First I always love your snips and miss them when I don't do Teasers. Second I loved this: "how on earth Julian could have fathered such an excuse for a human being." Priceless. Third the whole snip was awesome!
