Yay update!
[Spoiler (click to open)]It's good to see Desdemona finally has found a place to stay. Selling the car was a big deal because it means she really is pretty stuck for the moment.

Yay for getting a cat! I'm glad that Desdemona can have some companionship at least. I have to say though that I'm not fully convinced that the cat is only a cat. Partly because of the way you described its eyes (which is almost exactly like the pack leader's eyes) and partly because of how Shadow reacts to Jimmy. I'm hoping for Desdemona's sake that it really is just a cat!

Vampires in the Round Robin universe are really, really creepy. That one that accosted Desdemona had no right to do that. Thank goodness Jimmy was there! I wonder if the vampires know about him.

I definitely like Jimmy and I hope that he and Desdemona can work things out. He'll understand her fear when she tells him her own secrets. And they can live outside of town away from other people so her nightmares won't come back. :)

It was great to see Desdemona transitioning a bit to wanting some human companionship. Shadow was definitely a first step and I think she can still be happy if she keeps letting herself move forward.

Loved the update and I'm excited to see what will happen in the final part!

Edited to fix spoiler tags.

Fairport is a good place for Desdemona. Selling the car was a big deal, because it means she can’t just up and leave and because of all the time and energy she put into fixing it up.

Desdemona needed some kind of companionship, and I didn’t see her as a dog person (that, and I hate that you have to remember to bathe dogs or then end up all smelly). LOL, the cat is just a cat, but a perceptive one. I’ll expand more on my take on BRRL werewolf mythology, but I read somewhere (the Prima guide?) that cats don’t like getting trained by werewolves so I used that as a guide to how Shadow would treat Jimmy.

Yeah, RR vamps are creepy. I can totally see them being very territorial, and if they thought someone was trying to “steal” their territory…well, it could get ugly. It was a good thing Jimmy was there. I imagine that all supernaturals know about each other, and that there are prejudices between them.

Jimmy is pretty great. I agree that he would be very understanding of her, if she would just explain why. And yes, his cabin would be quite a nice little hideaway from the rest of the world.

Yeah, Desdemona’s Popularity wants are starting to come out again. It just remains to be seen if she can continue down that path and let herself trust people again.

Glad you liked it! I hope to have Part 3 posted before the end of the
month.
