Author commentary

Veronica: It’s obvious that there needed to be a continuation to Confrontation, at least to build on the cliffhanger between Mike and Lucy.. like what’s to happen? They revert back to normal or what? Surely what just happened is going to change everything.

Of course, knowing Mike, he was definitely gonna be consumed with constant thoughts even though Lucy explicitly told him not to think too much about it.

Oliver: “Think I’d follow your dumb rules, jerk?!” is a particularly cute Lucy moment here. He dreams her up like the real thing!

There is one thing i’ve never understood…. why are private thoughts embarrassing? People aren’t reading your mind with telepathy. And even if they did, you’d never know.

Just enjoy your own imagination, people. You have a mind’s eye, use it! You are your own master. In the end, you won’t change reality with thought.
