I just loved the way you wrote this chapter, Frank is so vocal in this. At least in his thoughts. I mean, I could easily hear him talking inside my head, the sarcasm and still, the heart-break in his voice.
Hmmm, about Alyssa, I might be prejudiced about her but after that explanation, I have to agree with Frank's THE FLAW. And her power is shape-shifting? Gahhh, the guys are just so naive, how could they all trust her like that, in the blink of an eye!
Another conspiracy theory has started to shape in my head as I read the lines when she said she could transform into people she has seen. You know Peter from Heroes, what if one of the Ruins is like Peter and he adopted Alyssa's powers? Ahh, I might have ruined your surprise now, if there was one :P Just don't respond to this rhetorical question, we like the suspense xP
Whatever, just update when you're not so busy. Since the week is over and I'm a tad more relaxed,that's what I'm gonna do =)
And God or Julie? We really do have very very close taste in music =D

Author's response
Aww, thanks. I made him have more of a say in this chapter (although he does in every one, since he is the main character and its in his POV), since he was the one most bothered by the whole return of Alyssa. I'm glad I transmitted just what i wanted to: despressed and sarcastic, since he's pretty much used to being that way by now. Thats where the whole "coffee, anyone?" came in! haha
Frank doesn't trust her for obvious reasons, but she was best friends with them all before. It a complicated situation, really.
I haven't seen Heroes ever so I'm not so sure i know what you mean by Peter's power. I know who he is, the main character, right? But i don't know what he or anyone else does =( I seriously need to watch it this summer! lol
God and Julie have gorgeous songs! Yep, almost identical taste in music! Great minds think alike... hahaha
