I really like this a lot. It fits well with what we know of Eden's dad from the comics and it makes sense she'd have developed a crush on him for while. Nicely done.

Thank you! I didn't care much for Eden at first, but she grew to interest me.

Oh-so-brilliant! I love the observation of HRG as being a sort of walking anachronism. And for the first time, it makes sense how Eden went from out of control to submissive. Just great!

Oh, that was very nice. I love her observations about HRG as being the kind of guy from an earlier time, and the contrast between him and her own father.
