Chapter 2.1:Ah, Jan has been meeting some ladies as of late, eh? First the officer, and now the Exotic Goddess that's quite blatantly flirting with her. It was a random encounter, at least for her, so I can relate to her doubt whether she was being pranked or pick-pocketed. I have a feeling this woman is going to show up later, perhaps I'm wrong.
You beautifully painted the not-so-pretty picture of modern-day Detroit. I know little of the place, but what I do know I have through the story(with those awesome references), and of pictures I have seen. The comparison to WWII battlefield was very appropriate.
Great seeing Lighthammer again! She makes a fine point. Unlike him, she's tethered to her morals and responsibility as a super. Engaging in conflict in a certain way, well, could very much tarnish her image. 50K is good money, though!
"This is Detroit. We are all mental here. All the sane people left decades ago." I like the training in the end, and though she's busting out some Krav Maga moves, her mind was on that Ebony Goddess. I know mine would've been!
Chapter 2.2: Heh the Wannabee Gucci Biker tried to pull a fast one. Made sense why she would be reminded him of her brother, heh, what a turd. He oozes narcissism.
Jan trusts Avery very much, and so far he's been very sound in his decisions. He's great!
I like how the chapter literately ended with her feeling like a deflated balloon.
Chapter 2.3: Avery is that one friend we all need when our stuff breaks down, or we need something working far better than it does.
"My man parts are my best parts!", "I have some parts here that you'll like." His humor and wit are always amusing! I love this guy
Avery is a good friend, and like all good friend he shows the proper concern to her regarding her new partnership with Lighthammer. As a Grey Hat, I'm sure he can be quite unpredictable.
Though they are usually prepared and ready for anything, they weren't ready for good ol' grandma making a surprise.
"Do you have that white girl downstairs? I thought I saw her come in."Hahaha!
"You should tap that thing. I bet she's a wild one in the sack. The quiet ones always are."LMAO. Well, damn, Vanessa!
This was a very humorous part that went very sad with her condition. Its never easy to have a loved one of that age suffer through something like that. On a positive note, Jan is always there for him as I am sure he will always be there for her. The two are always there to support each other, even in the worst of times.
Wow! The bike is indeed good as new!
And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed.
I long for scenes where man hath never trod
A place where woman never smiled or wept
There to abide with my Creator, God,
And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept,
Untroubling and untroubled where I lie
The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”
