Indeed.  Sharpshooter was a recent development that I had only just posted when this came up, so he was on my mind at the time.  Still, Rachel did a fine job. As would be expected from someone in her position.

Well, thank you. It just sort of came to me after reading the ceremony, much like Adrian's story did to him (which was also great by the way).  It just seemed appropriate after all of that.  I'm glad you liked it.

Also: Is Lydia really that popular for cameos? I know she's had a cameo in one of your stories with Doc Nostalgia, and Andrew Perron used her for a one-shot, but was there anything else I somehow missed?
