Tooie: I liked it a lot! It's still as strong as ever! I loved the reactions of the bunnies when they realized he was moving in! That was a very well done scene! I also love the scene with Kaia'var! :) There's so much tension! Only complaint (because I was the reader) was that there were a lot of commas missing and it made it hard to read. I kept tripping up or thinking it was a run-on part. But other then that it was a fantastic chapter. Please keep it up!

Koie: Yep, your story is coming along nicely. Some of the story is kinda lost on me 'cause I haven't played Mass Effect, but still, great chapter. I look forward to seeing more. :) My favorite part, though it was short, was the battle scene. Seeing the characters dealing with the life and death struggle in a war situation was really well done. I could feel their fears along with them. Great job!

Shawn:First of all: You have successfully maintained the feel that Thomas (the hairless alien) is the freak and furry is the norm in the "real world." Clever evasion of the paparazzi. I love the way the sisters are watching television wondering where the extraterrestrial "immigrant" (a legalized alien) is going to live and are shocked to discover who their new neighbor is! Good visuals. I love impassioned female villains, especially when they are out for blood. Keep it coming! I do like the way Thomas "rolls with the punches" in life. He's not slack, just realistic, but always proactive. My favorite scene in the new part is the sisters. My favorite character is still Thomas. My favorite aspect is that no matter the environment and or circumstances, people are people and life is life. Love it. Keep it all coming. Sincerely, Shawn

The King of Caucasian (Don White): I liked the perspective that he's the human in this world full of furries but he is actually the freak. It is a counter-perspective that shows what humans would look like to aliens. It was clever that he was able to elude the reporters by having them chase after the more obvious vehicle rather then the one he was actually in. I like how the bunny sisters think that it would be preposterous that he would end up as their neighbors. I like irony of that. Concerning the obsessive qualities of the Xarian, it looks as if, when he should not have survived, she still thinks he is alive. It is almost as if her obsession with killing him has taken over her life. The foreboding quality that she is going after him is also well done. The strength of this story is the perspective. A form of seeing humanity from the outside. Good job! Looking forward to seeing where it leads.

Thank you very much guys! I was hoping you would enjoy this newest chapter but honestly I didn't expect this kind of response. Again I apologize it took so long but it seems it was worth the wait. I also want to say I am making a promise that I won't let myself go that long without a new entry again. Like I said before I had a lot of fun writing this particular chapter and your reaction to it helps remind me why I like writing so much!

I wanted to take a moment to reply to some of your specific comments as well. I already told Tooie this but I was rather surprised at how you all liked the moment with Jezelia and Klarice. I knew going into this chapter I wanted a moment like that, but when I finalized I was still worried it might have been a bit too silly for the story itself. Looks like I didn't need to after all though. I was very glad to read at how much you liked the ending moments with the scene between Kaia'Var and Zorn'Rouws. The comment Don made of her obsession is very true to Kaia, and I am looking forward to when I reach the chapters that will explain her fixation on Thomas. In response to Koie thank you for your words on the short battle scene. One reason why it was so short was because it was something of a test for myself. I was not sure how well I would do at writing an actual military battle scene, and actually took some inspiration from my experience playing games like Modern Warfare 2 in recent days. Since you did enjoy it though look forward to later chapters, especially the chapters I mentioned with tell more of the Kaia/Thomas story as those will involve some combat heavy moments. And while I strongly urge you to play Mass Effect [shameless plug moment of the day!] you do not need to know anything from it to get this story actually. I did take some technological/plot homages from them but nothing very intricate.

Once again friends, your comments here definitely made it clear why I enjoy writing. Work on Chapter 6 is going to begin extremely soon [once I get through some last minute Christmas frenzy]. And since I feel like teasing Tooie some, the next chapter will at long last have the Thomas meets Jezelia moment I am sure you've been eager to see. ^_^
