I have trouble with math as well! Which is why I'm studying history! BTW, Aang where do you go to school?

I have to leave now, I have class in about ten minutes!

[Aang]

And I'm studying journalism aka English

I'm at Northampton Community College in the middle of nowhere in Pennsylvania

[Sparky She-Demon]

Are you planning to transfer?

[Aang]

Not at the moment, I can't really afford to pay any more than I already do for school...

Yeah... I know what you mean.

So class got in my way and distracted me from GateWorld, then I got tied up reading a fanfiction...and then I noticed it was 4pm. Hah.

Also Chapter 6 of TLY is finally up I finally kicked it into gear yesterday and got it done

That's good and I've already read it!

[Aang]

Yay.

What's awesome (to me) is that about a day or two before I got around to finishing Chapter 6, someone had left me a review asking for chapter 6, and when I checked and found it, I must have legitimately squealed with happiness. I mean, it was my first whack at fanfiction so I guess I'm proud of the fact that people want more

And I think I did it weirdly,

Spoiler:

I should have had them put Clone Carson in an iso room and the tests and stuff but being that he'd run the tests on himself and found the data early on and then shared it with Elizabeth come Ch. 6 so I figured with him already showing the results of the tests, why would she make him go through the same tests again, especially if she trusted him...and I mean 3 months and she'd no reason not to trust him from that, so I figured she wouldn't be too likely to suddenly stop trusting him just because he wasn't the original. Did that make any sense?

That is a nice thing to have going. People begging for more of your stories. I've got that going for all three of my main works in progress, especially TWGO and Shadow Games.

[Aang]

It's...I guess because until now the only one begging me for more of my stories was my best friend so it was kinda' nice to have it from someone else

Ack, I'm just hoping I didn't screw up the one part too badly. I always do this to myself after adding the next chapter, sit here and worry I did it wrong...

[Sparky She-Demon]

Tell me about it. I've had some close shaves myself!

[Aang]

Thing is (spoiler tags because idk who of Carson's ladies is reading my fic and therefore who's read how much)

Spoiler:

I feel like I made Laura too harsh in Ch. 5 even though she was in shock finding out that her 'boyfriend' was a clone, so I thought she had every right to be hurt and upset by it, even if Carson was gentle. They were dating so, common sense he'd tell his 'girlfriend' when something was up...yes?

And then in Ch.6 I made up for that fail by dragging the whole team into the picture...but I feel like 'Lizabeth was too soft on him. Like she should have had him sent to an isolation room for further poking and prodding before she decided to trust him...

And maybe in the same vein I had Rodney be too cold as well. But then he is supposed to be sort of tactless at times and I figured the sheer craziness of his best friend being a clone would be enough to make him clam up and be a little less than helpful for a bit.

....I dunno, I'm just confuzzled.

I think that everyone's reaction were spot on. Obviously they were going to be a bit surprised. But you're doing a good job!
