Yeah, that is awkward. Thank you, because I have no idea why but I think that's a thing I accidentally do and never remember to check for.
Calla really would dearly love to disembowel Morgan. She's kind of mean, and also she's not entirely wrong in that. But that doesn't come up until later.
I owe the Robot Scrabble idea to my friend alien_writings, who suggested it when I was writing the original incarnation of this story as an LJ Idol piece last year.
And YES YAY AWESOME that is exactly how I want it to come across. Although now I need to panic and read the first half of the book and make sure I am doing that intro to their worlds justice and not getting too bogged down in character development and intros and people getting to know each other. You know that thing in Stephen King books where people dick around a whole bunch and talk before anything actually happens? Yeah. I may have caught a bit of that from him. He is also responsible for my lack of desire to write in dialect EVER. He's an influence, but whether or not he's a good influence remains to be seen. ;-)
