Don't worry. Talson's not going anywhere...yet.

Great chapter Jilly, we can haz moar? ;D
Tessa always makes me laugh - that outfit plus a hat.

So kind of a Victorian/futuristic combo. Is that what they call 'Steam punk?'

That jar seems dangerous perhaps?

Also Marg is a clever girl for looking into her management, they sound like a bunch of crooks.

[jillyson]

Exactly - steampunk is kind of a mix of both.

Right now, her management is just Ashley White, and you're definitely right about her. The jar? You'll have to wait and see on that one, but it will factor in future events.

I've fallen behind on the writing, so ch 4 is still in the works. It's about half written, but I've had to stop & build some sets for it. The building is done, so hopefully I'll have it ready over the long Christmas weekend for posting.

Great chapter Jill. Arlo is one bad ass Darkling I wouldn't want to run into, and if I did, I wouldn't want to cross him That Ashley has no idea what she's messing with and for her sake, her plan had better not backfire.

And oh my, Guy is quite a hottie , I wonder what mission he's on?

That Arlo sure is nasty! I hope Ashley can get away from him...FAST

*Squee* There's my Guy!!! *Swoon*

Great update Jill, as usual!!!

So much happening in this chapter.
Ashley better watch out. that Arlo (who I am still upset with you for not using the name I suggested ) is pretty scary looking. Yet, I am strangely drawn to his bad boy self.

Tessa is learning so much. She is becoming quite a unique Simbot there. It was also good to finally meet Pascal, and see Sabine again.

Can't wait until the next chapter. Keep up the good work!

[dblondepimpett]

I so follow in the line of awsome update !!

I love Tessa hehe and Ashley well I have mixed feelings about her like for one I find her like a kind of betrayer for getting mixed up with Arlo (Who looks down right scary thumbs up!) but at the same time I feel sorry for her. Great Chapter!

[jillyson]

Thanks, Guys! I know it took me long enough! Lol! I'm hard at work on ch 5, but with everyone's stories to catch up on, I find myself reading instead of writing!

SPOILER: Click to show

And Guy...I heart him, too. We'll be seeing more of him - Looks like Ashley's little comment about Jay not being able to do anything about Arlo might not be so true after all...

Ashley's dug herself quite a hole, but people like her never learn. Her schemes are going to drag many others into her mess before all is said and done, as you'll see in ch 5.

I was glad Pascal finally got to be introduced. He and Talson are quite close. (also more in ch 5)

I've been doing a ton of set building and skilling, getting everyone ready for the upcoming chapters. I've downloaded some awesome lots, and I can't wait to show them off!

And Holley, I could never use that name with a straight face! (or hearing "bow-chicka-BOW-bow" in my head! Lol!)

I just realized what time you wrote, Val! Holy cow, go to bed! Lol! (but how cool that you thought of me! DH must be thrilled! Lol!)

[phoenixfg]

Read the first chapter! I'm hooked! I left a comment on LJ.

[sb]

I read up through your current chapter this morning and I'm in love with this! Fabulous characters and a unique and detailed world and situation.

[jillyson]

Thanks, Guys!
I've never written a sci fi before, and I have to keep reminding myself to bring the future surroundings into the story. I hope I'm doing that enough.
