I’d probably do the same. Cry.
I like that you went with Marguerite here, and was able to create a scene, repeating what was going on. it was clarifying, in a way.

Man, I actually feel bad about doing this to Marguerite. How crazy is that? I mean really. Obviously this is Izzy’s fault. Kidding. Great addition, bringing the whole thing back down to a personal, emotional level.

Wow… that’s such a softer side of Marguerite that I like seeing… these characters sure are complex…

Culture Shock sequeled, and then I sequeled his. Please reference my comment on his for my disclaimer. Were you right about Olga?

Very good description of what Marguerite is going through. Poor girl!
