I agree, that's a great description of Clem ... I wonder if his race is that way in general, or if it's just his own personality? In either case, if I ever get to it I'll have as much fun with Clem as I have with Bottie.

I brought Tara back in the traditional way: As a ghost. I'd never intended to write a second fanfic after "Where Do We Go From Here?", but as time went by and I wrote more stories I had her and Bottie change some, in ways I hope to expand on at some point in the future. I've had a lot of fun keeping most of my fanfics in one continuity.
