Vic, from what I can tell, seems to have a very small number of firm and sincere moral convictions, and a lot of stuff he'll do to get what he wants.

Test Card girl's mockery was horrible and very real, and Sam accusing her of cheating by using the mirror, amazing. :)

Thank you very much. I love hearing what people think of my stuff; it's really encouraging to know people read it.
I'm not really sure where I could go for a sequel. But thanks.
