Reactions and Reviews

this fic goes on for too long - but it's fairly funny. i, er, don't know why what happened to the crew happened, or why tarrant would still be a man when the others have changed their genders, but whatever! there are some good jokes.

it's not exactly a joke, but i genuinely laughed out loud at the 'aftermath' opening (seems like a contradiction in terms):

[Tarrant] would have recognised that glorious profile anywhere. Kerr Avon - computer genius, embezzler and sex god. Tarrant had collected every wanted poster the Federation had ever put out on Avon, and used them to wallpaper his room at the Federation Space Academy.

clearly - i thought that was funny. i did something similar in 'chance of freedom' (although only i knew it was a joke about disney's robin hood).
