Ah, now I feel I know Lucie better than before. Hearing her own view of other's view of her, told me more about her in three paragraphs, than the rest of the story to date (which obviously did other things). *g*
Worrying to see Tim in London. But to be expected, I suppose, with Etienne being held there.
And interesting how the introduction of Declan, even slightly removed, showed Lucie how much Kincaid had been accepted.
Nice chapter, hon. So now I'll be just waiting and hoping nothing goes wrong next week, with the prompt or with the plan. *g*

The prompt... yes, that is worrying. *g* Time will tell.

This is a good chapter for Lucie insight if not for story mobility. The reintroduction of Tim and Declan are really the only big plot points. Next chapter gets us moving again; so, I do hope the prompt is good!

I've been looking forward, and I'm a little worried about how some of what's to come will be taken. So, we'll see. *frowns* I trust you'll tell me if I've gone too far off course.
