@chris kane When you really like a story (or a film, or tv show), it can be a very reassuring "meta" thing to see a character from a related story. (I kept hoping you'd launch Prince as the principal of another series...maybe a future idea....he's such a fun, rich, and true "character.") Aside from that, I'm looking forward to what you do here. Unlike the Honeymoon where the ingestion of mariposa was sequential, here's it's all done simultaneously, which suggests a new and different turn of events. Looking forward!

I kept on waiting for Lance to make a reference to "my friend Prince." :) So excited to see a new installment (I just recommended the Honeymoon to someone looking for wholesome stories). Great engaging start!

@nycboot You made me go back and make sure I hadn't already used Lance as a character name in a prior Mariposa story. Looks like I have used that name a few times in other stories, but not in a Mariposa adventure. Anyway, none of these four characters is meant to have been someone you've seen in a previous story...but there's a chance some of my other characters might pop up as the story unfolds.

This was hot throughout the whole thing! I’m worried about Felix and Trevor but I hope they end up happy together.

I just finished reading the 6 parts you posted on your tumblr. Incredible! I can't wait for more, especially if you add pictures like you said!

is there a point to the word(s) Irish and Irish-American being repeated over and over and over and over ... ?

Every chapter adds a new element that makes the story even better! I'll still be reading this at Chapter 50.

@Norismo agreed!

There were a lot of elements here I really loved, including the "Jock O'Clock" refrain and the way the men in the town were being slowly altered even before the mass brainwashing event took place. But man, this story is trying to pack in a LOT of disparate elements into its 5000 words, and I couldn't always keep up with the twists and genre switches.

@Hypnothrill 100% Agree, but that's how Season of the Witch (of which this is a light parody) is, it's just a bombardment of information and then it ends.

@Norismo Ohhh! I saw the "Parody" tag, but having not seen Halloween III, I didn't know what this story might be parodying.

Halloween 3 is one of my favourite films @Hypnothrill, I forgot that people might not have seen it 😂
