Thanks, GC, your suggetion is a good one, I'll pass it on to Peter, lol. At least Michael did not let her words prevent him from joining his dads in the morning, but I guess Moster telling him to go upstairs and wake them up did the trick. I'm looking forward to telling Moster's story about the mad woman next door. I hope it will be as much fun as you predict. Happy to sign you up for Team Michael.

Thanks, DQ, good to know I have the approval of Team Michael. LOL on the Babel Fish, I think it only works for spoken languages, though. I try to avoid this much Danish, but I wanted my readers to feel Patrick's frustration at not being able to understand this crucial conversation between Peter and Michael. Orlando we need to find comfort where we can.

Thanks, Tim. Your suggestion is very apt. Patrick has used this tactic for years, and Peter may benefit from it too. I'm glad you liked the chapter even so.

Now boys, play nice or I'll ask the Lead Mare aka Mommy aka Kitt to come over and tell you to behave. Hmm, or even better - hollers : Mark, Mark, they're in your forum. Quick, post a Granger chapter to distract them!

Thanks, lux, you have a good point, and at least it's easier to cut her off when you're in a different country. We'll get to the hospital stuff eventually (though with as few details as possible), but first we have the biddy next door. Oh, and the rest of a hopefully nice family Sunday to get through.

Thanks, Fae, I think you're right about Peter's mother. She made the first cuts herself, but this may be the last straw. As for the woman next door... But I promise you'll get the story in the next chapter.

Thanks, dugh, I'm glad you enjoyed their family morning, in spite of the Farmor problem. I think the boys did too.

Thanks, AC, I think you're right, and at least it's more fun to follow the bad boy in this team. LOL, yes, Imp does seem to spend a lot of time thinking about Angel's blue and silver colors, maybe he's enchanted by the contrast to his own red and black? But I'm sure he'd deny any attraction vehemently. I'm glad you mention the two missions, I spent a lot of time working on them (and thanks for your help). I'm proud to hear you found them hot, that means my mission there is accomplished. I was lucky the Anthology theme fit perfectly with the story I had in mind already. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

No wonder Oscar reacted the way he did at the playful words of his lover in the beginning. While Sam's betrayal of him was heartbreaking, it did leave him free to rescue Oscar and begin a new life with him. Perhaps it will be easier for Sam to accept the warlock secret now he has had a taste of remorse over his own evil act and has been saved in turn by the 'evil powers' of magic. Great story, Val, but now I wonder how they met and became lovers.

Beautiful, Tim, so true and beuatifully said.

Thanks, Cynus, I'm glad you liked my imp too, yours was so devious and funny. I wouldn't be surprised if they knew each other even though they have different 'jobs.' I hadn't thought about why these teams were originally formed. If you have an idea please write it up. I can PM you the few background notes I made. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Druella tried to play a wicked games without knowing the rules. She deserved her fate. Your imp was even funnier than mine.

Thanks, Def, glad you liked the tail teasings, they were fun to write. I'm sure the teasings increased in time and they may be an indication of Imp's feelings. Interesting that you see Angel as female, was that because of the nickname (Angie) or the 'girly' behavior? I was wondering whether anyone would notice the gender ambiguity, because I think there's only one indication of Angel's gender in the whole story (and none in PPC). Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Hello my dear editor and thank you for making the scheduled posting possible.

As Peter had predicted, morning brought a small body wriggling in between them and settling down with a satisfied sigh. When Patrick opened his eyes, he found two wide-awake blue orbs trained on his face. Michael didn’t say anything, but when Patrick smiled and whispered ‘Good morning’ the boy grinned back and repeated the greeting. “Good morning, Papa.” His voice was almost inaudible and he held a finger to his lips to tell Patrick they needed to be quiet. The cardmaker nodded; his breast

Tillykke med fødselsdagen Happy waving of Danish birthday flags I can't find a SATW comic with penguins, so here's a spooky kitten one.

Thanks, dragon, I love that you praise both the idea and the execution. Both are needed to make a story work well. The story is meant as a stand-alone for now, apart from the random glimpses you can get in my Valentine story. But as I've said several times by now, lol, I'm hoping to revisit this A.I. team at some point.

Thanks, Puppilull, I'm glad you agreed with the open ending. I normally like to wrap everything up, but in this case I felt we'd reached a sort of plateau and anything more would have to be a new story. I have definitely considered switching POV as a way to gain new insight. I'll wait for more inspiration and time. You're definitely right about love and lust being a good combination. Joel in Thaw springs to mind Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thanks, northie, your Bureaucracy is hell cracked me up Good is often boring, but Angel is a nice backdrop for Imp to act against. Sort of the reverse of 'you need dark to see the glory of the light.' But, yeah, there's a reason I used Imp's POV. The A.I. partnership did work out unusually well, since they didn't have to try multiple partners before they clicked with someone. As for anything else... More? Perhaps one day, given enough time and inspiration. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thanks, Drew and Yay back at you. Those two crack me up too, they're the comic relief from too much romance and sentimental drivel. I'm glad you liked the naughty stuff and Imp's button pushing, but you know who inspired me, right? Else check out dugh's post on page 1377 of the CotT topic. you're absolutely right! Angel is Sweden and Imp is Denmark of SATW. I can't believe I didn't think of that. I even gave Imp a Danish name (see my reply to glittery's review). Love your interpretation of the ending. I think you're right abut them having feelings (of love?) for each other and Imp being totally unaware. He's gonna freak out when he wakes up. But yes, the real unknown is whether they have mutual 'lust' for each other too. If not, they may find out what happens to fated couples who admit to love but refuse to consumate. Angel didn't like it If I ever return to them, as I hope, we may find out. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thanks, Emi, I'm glad the story made you feel those wonderful emotions. I loved your thought about the management playing wicked games on their A.I. teams. Angel and Imp certainly seems to have capture the hearts of my readers - and perhaps each other ? I'll leave it up to your imagination for now, but I'm not ruling out a revisit at some point. Until then you'll have to make do with random glimpses in PPC. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thanks, Val, I'm very pleased you, Cole and others who did not 'know' the angel and imp beforehand, nevertheless enjoyed the story. I would like to write more stories about them, but I need both time and inspiration. I think you're right about their dynamic creating plenty more hilarious scenes no matter how they are together. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thanks, Cole, I'm pleased you found the story funny, because that was my main aim. The heart part was almost an unexpected bonus. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thanks, LL, I'm so pleased you loved my A.I. team and I'm not surprised Imp made you laugh. He really is bad the fun way, right? Angie may have resented the teasing and the nickname at first, but the angel did seem to sort of enjoy it eventually, perhaps even provoking Imp? I'm glad you liked the assignments, it was not so easy to keep the balance between focusing on the A.I. team yet flesh out the humans enough to make them seem real. I did try to think of the next scene when Imp wakes up, but it wouldn't come. At least you know they're still a team in Patrick's head. I won't rule out writing a sequel, but I need to focus on my three! incomplete stories. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thanks, Gary, such lovely descriptive words make me I'm glad you think the story fits the theme, since it's my first anthology attempt. A common goal is a very powerful thing, as you know from your own supernatural story. As for love sneaking up... Thanks for reading and reviewing.
