i read part one when it came out, completely forgot about it, and then have been skipping the updates because "i never started that one, so i'd be confused".  except i did start it.  anyway, just reread the first part, and i see i have a lot to catch up on.

finally caught up, and i cannot wait for the Halloween stories to come out.

this is like all of my favorite fetishes combined with my favorite politics combined with, again, my favorite fetishes.

can't wait to read more.  i'm glad it only took me 3 days to finish.  i now kind of wish my time dilation was enough to get the whole thing at once.

That's quite the reading effort!  Thank you for the kind words, and I hope the last chapter of Tome 4 won't disappoint.

Related to your comment somewhat:  Chapter 25 is also going to be an alternate entry point into the story - I knew that the Halloween special may have new readers who aren't familiar with the story, so it's written with that in mind.  That means there is maybe half a page's worth of "extra text" but I am pretty sure it won't be too much of an inconvenience

if i can point something out:  in Tome 2, Maker suggests that Judith's hands are the same size at either 92 or 54, but in 4-20, we learn that Seal is #54.  this is probably not something anyone who isn't obsessive to the point of taking notes would have noticed, but it popped up when i sorted my list.
and i hope lots more people get on board with 4-25.  i'm super looking forward to it!

Ooh good catch!  I'll edit my master file right away.
