Finally, some hot sex! Okay, so a couple of people got laid, and I didn’t go into a lot of detail about one, and virtually none with the other. Truth is, I think Michael and Krysta’s sex life is best left to the imagination, for now. But at least he got laid—maybe he’ll be a bit more pleasant now?
We spent a bit more time with Merri and Thad ‘cause I just thought they were too damn cute. I like LOVE them together. And for anyone thinking Merri is acting out of character for sleeping with a strange guy...well, the fact is, you don’t really know her character yet. She’s a compulsive liar—quite frankly, NOTHING is out of character for that girl.
I should add that I have no idea how difficult it is to buy drinks for underage people in a club like they do in this chapter. Alcohol laws are kinda tight here in Canada, but this is fiction and I can do whatever I want, okay?
There was a bit of a set up here for the typical “Girl makes arrangements to meet guy, then he gets left alone and possibly embarrassed” sit-com style thing between Mer and Warren...and in my twisted mind, it made sense then to not go for the usual silly thing and actually have it be like a baaaad thing. The first three chapters of part two set up the mythology changes and that for the next arc of the story...this chapter really starts some of the plot stuff. That’s right—I’m gonna have a Big Bad in this part of the story.
Anyway, back to Mer and Thad for a second...I really didn’t expect them to end on that note. It surprised me when she got all snappy and mad at him—I actually had anticipated him driving Merri to her apartment, and I don’t have a clue how Levi got everyone in his car to go home later. Sorry, Lev.
