WTF!? That was amazzzzzzzzing! This is all so clever and well thought out! I love universes like this! Where everything is so new and you get to learn the intimacies of it as you go along. *happy sigh* It is all so very wonderful.

One of my favorite parts of this chapter was when the reason for AJ's nickname came up. Annoying Jerk. *snort* That is so absolutely delightful and so Kevin.

The part about S.W.E.E.T. has me so intrigued! I want to know every little thing about Howie!!..I mean, the Medical Unit. And N.I.C.L and B.R.O.C.K are so cute with each other. I love their scene together. Getting inside character's heads is my favorite part. I love hearing Brian's thoughts about how he isn't supposed to have real thoughts. It's absolutely fantastic ( ... )

Hey there, I'm glad you liked it.

Annoying Jerk was actually the first acronym I thought, because it is impossible to do a 'serious' software name with the letters A.J. I kinda managed later, but I just had to include it.

Also, I'm glad you like the Units. They're fun to write, especially B.R.O.C.K. which was a surprise since I don't like Brian a lot, go figure. I can't tell you anything about S.W.E.E.T., you know, spoilerwise, but I can tell you that probably next chapter you'll find out the story behind Spark's not-hair.

But man, talk about making me feel guilty! Don't fail college!

But failing out of college for Sparkly fiction is at least a good excuse right?

I mean, is Sparkly Space fiction!! How am I supposed to say no to that? Once I start I can't stop reading. *pouts*

Well, if you ask me the sparkly is a good excuse for everything ;)

But well, you have time while I finish part II to finish homework :D

You already know I love this because I told you when I looked it over, but *squee*. I adore all of them so very much. Right now, A.J. and N.I.C.K. are my favorite crew members, but I adore Crazy, Crunk and Scoop so very much as well. I'm really looking forward to what happens next.

This is all interesting and nifty and stuff! I like the space cowboys (correction: I love the space cowboys -- just reading the name made me laugh and clap too hard to read for a good three minutes) -- they remind me a bit of one of the species in Tanya Huff's Valor books, who also had prehensile, emotive (and sometimes pink) hair. And who were also deeply entertaining.

I'm really intrigued by the hints you've given about what happened to Spark, and the spoooky subterfuge with Sweet. And I was so glad when Kevin asked what I'd been wondering -- what does S.W.E.E.T. stand for?!? I'm looking forward to finding out!

Thank you! The Space Cowboys are fun to write, I'll admit. I had never heard about Tanya Huff, but I'll be looking into them now. I was thinking a little about MEdusa from MArvel comics, to be truthfull.

Next chapter, I'll reveal what S.W.E.E.T. stands for, and a little more of what happened to Spark. Just a little, because there are two other mysteries to be introduced ;)
