I used the
picowrimo challenge last month to write the third part of my Lynx story, also known as The Big PGP. My thanks as ever go to my excellent beta-reader,
astrogirl2. The story is on my site's
fiction page, with the previous two parts in the series, and I should also load it onto the
Hip Deep in Heroes archive. I'll probably get round to that tomorrow.

At the end of part 2, they were both unwilling to let on how they felt in case they were rejected or hurt, or damaged their friendship. Something like this had to happen to shock admissions out of them both. I also think Soolin needs someone warm who also understands the bad stuff she's been through, and of course Vila needs someone more sensible and less impulsive than himself.
The trooper's underwear was there from the beginning, years ago. I don't know; these story sometimes just play out like internal films which I have to write down. But yes, there was a running underwear motif in Vila's E-mails, started by his mother's concern that it was clean in case he was captured.

But you like happy endings as much as me, so I expected it to be.

I've thought of writing fanfic where Soolin turns out to be Avon's long lost neice or sister. They were similar in temperment, except Soolin was far more loyal. This fic reminded me of it, since Avon was 15 when his brother left for a agricultural colony in this set of stories.
I'm glad Vila survived in these fics. A very forgiving person too, giving Avon a second chance. Most people wouldn't. If Avon had pulled that stunt in the shuttle with any of the others, I think they would have killed him.
The last story, "Blake" with Vila saying he always assumed people were out to get him wherever he went, and Soolin saying, "The difference is on GP, you would be right." Well, her saying that did seem silly, since everyone was out to get them wherever they went. GP was the last in a long line of unsafe places. Vila was usually right when he suspected a trap or danger, but no one seemed to take him seriously.

Vila was indeed usually right, which is one reason I have him having a slight psychic ability, just enough to give him hunches.
