I decided to switch the introducing Ashcroft/Mermin quotes of parts 2 and 3, as well as moving the murder and subsequent interrogation scenes to part 3, effectively giving part 2 an overall length of approximately 31/32 pages (instead of 47+).
This also avoids having a month-long gap inside a chapter of an otherwise mostly continuously told story and puts more focus on the newly introduced ST fertility thread in 2. In addition, it will allow to tell most of the more bothersome "hi, we're working here now" stuff in short recall lines instead of long, winding scenes boring me and my (minuscule number of?) readers to death.
Plus, it collects the breaking of both "crystals" in the same part (3), instead of splitting it between 2 and 3.
There's going to be a short scene in Walsh's office, preparing the leap to part 3, but then it's likely going to Elizabeth Bales-Stutes for final criticism (and necessary grammar complains). :)
Quote of the day: =I believed it in your and Goose's best interest. Releasing Somnia-3 in the corridors to give him time for ringing the bell causes too much attention.= (I just love writing ALMA in this!)
