Yoy managed magnificently with the Gallion's end. When i was thinking that you introduce the supernatural stuff... flap! * spoiler* the opium, brilliant. And then, Cathy again, very well portrayed.
This was a very good fic, perhaps a bit "twilight" ("crepuscular") i wonder? I mean, in regard Rita in Steed's life.
Um, i owe read soon the next fic to the answer. Thank you very much for sharing your talent with us.

Sorry, author, but i think "poor thug Slag" so many times hit by the girls... well done, again, with the struggle and the final chase. My favorite? Of course: "It could have been worse," he said wryly. "I barely managed to get the shorts."

So many times, when i read chapters like this one i think: Why this couldn't be filmed now! Is super "cinematografico" (sorry, i don't have a english word). And the final encounter with Cathy... well, very opportune.

The scene in the pond is the best i read lately. Congratulations.

"Rita's assisted you for three months and only tried to kill you twice?" Ja, ja, ja this is my grumpy Catherine, brilliant!

"Another two inches, and it might have killed me." Uh, you frightened me!! Poor Steed!!

I really enjoyed your story. As usual very well written, and very witty.
