Toreth, toreth, toreth. **shakes head at the kitchen scene**

This short story was so close to reality and yet so removed from anything that we usually experience that it makes for an interesting contrast that should be explored.

" Tell me a story uncle Val." , - Too funny!

OMG---Kate is Int-Sec? Using her first son? Toreth reminds her of Leo?
