being the Alex-lover that I am, my biggest worry at the moment is:

will Tess' newfound interesting code-breaking be as lethal for Alex as it was on the show?

I guess Michael and Maria can fight about anything. LOL! He was seriously questioning the lyrics of a lullabye? Only Michael.

Who killed Tess' parents? Nasedo or someone else?

Another great chapter! I love the way you write!

This story is so good!

Well at least Laurie's situation got sorted out, although not to the satisfaction of either Michael or Maria.

Isabel and Max have a long road ahead of them with Diane being fearful and suspicious of them.

I loved this chapter and am looking forward to the discussion of Max and Isabel's parents with everyone else.

Well at least the Queen is dead. Although it seems as if they jump from one crisis to another now that Max's parents know.

As for the two unknown aliens, it seems as if the Skins are their enemy, so maybe they're friendlies?

Not an easy part to read, with Max almost killing his father to get that thing out of him. I was surprised that Isabel had agreed to her parents being mindwarped to forget what they had seen but honestly, now that I think about it, it's much better that they forget because it's not how Max and Isabel would want their parents to know.

Hmm, it's unfortunately possible that Meredith's brother abused Laurie sexually. She was already unstable and it could have gotten worse if she were raped.

thanks for the reminder, it helped

Great chapter, though I'm finding the chapters to be moving a little slow in action, I just remember the show going a lot faster through this part, but otherwise great chapter.

I figured it was Nasedo who posed as Laurie. Funny how he'll do things for Maria.

Is Phillip the Queen's host or is it Brody? Hm...

So the crystals are now going to try to attack Brody also.

Sounds like Michael got through to Meredith.

Wonder what Maria is up to?

Okay, I suppose that Max's story tops Michael's story!! Take that, Michael. And what is it with men taking credit for their girls' findings? I mean, Michael did it in the show and now Alex, too?

And add to the problems Amy assisting to the play and not seeing Maria on stage.

cool update
