I was cracking up over the group chat! I really enjoyed the fact that Christa was designing and sewing in this one, not to mention that everything else was fantastic! I eagerly await #3 (also, the pizza rolls and s’more’s latte are very good.)

Thank you! I cracked up quite a few times writing it, too... I'm so glad you enjoyed this chapter. And that's awesome about the pizza and latte! How did you end up making it s'mores flavored?

My original plan was to use chocolate sauce and melt marshmallows into it, except the marshmallows were sadly crystallized and past their date. Thankfully someone had happened to pick up rocky road ice cream yesterday, so I poured my coffee over maybe 2-3 tablespoons, and it was wonderful and not too sweet! No graham cracker flavor, though I saw online that if you soak graham crackers in the milk before you make the latte, that gets the graham flavor. Something I’ll try next time I have graham crackers available!

The group chat was awesome, and I loved that there's a law on the books specifically about this stuff. Makes sense! Somehow I don't think it's Jacob taking the pizza rolls though. I bet it's someone else. Hmmmm....

Hmmm… :3

I had a ton of fun with this chapter! I think this is where I really started to think through my worldbuilding and realized I had a bunch of plot hooks just sitting there. Thanks.

😊 Sorry to torture you, but I do love to hear it!

You always pick out the best stuff, by the way. Absolutely makes my day when you read something of mine and comment through it.

"ur awfully defensive there for a non pizza roll thief." Genuine online dialect

:D I'm fluent in several dialects, but now that I'm old enough to make fun of Zoomer slang, I'm pretty sure they're all either outdated or getting there.
