There’s been a great deal of mayhem and naughtiness in the comments lately, and I must tell you all that I cannot stand for such blatant displays of brattery on this blog. This is after all, a place for decorum, curtsying and flower arrangements. If any of you would like to play the piano and walk about the room in order to display your figures to the other ladies, you should feel free to do so.
In other news, I have a little more of B.R.A.T stalker for you all. I am still in the process of writing those Finn books, the good news is that the first one is done and the second one is well on it’s way.
“Why did you flag those numbers?”
The words Chase had heard running through her head all night broke into her consciousness. Bright light assaulted her eyes as they fluttered open to gaze at the shiny boots of Agent Darby in which her tousled reflection was all too clear.
“Do you have someone lick your boots clean daily?” Chase queried as she sat up and tried to regain some form of composure. She had no idea what time of the day or night it was. The lights were still on as bright as before and there were no windows or clocks to mark the passing of time. Chase found herself regretting that she didn’t wear a watch. That and that she didn’t carry around a small pack of explosives for escaping overzealous government agents.
“No. But it’s an idea,” Agent Darby said, her lips quirking slightly at the corners as she visibly struggled to maintain her cold exterior in the face of Chase’s erratic sense of humor.
@Loki—Okay Mighty Queen of cliff hangers…..you can’t just leave us hanging like this—my hands are sweaty and my fingers are slipping I’m going to fall—-”FALL”, I say—and then what? No more chicklet all because of Loki and Agent Darby.
Why would you do this to us?
[Reply]
*gasp* OH NO!! HOLD ON CHICKLET!!
I’m off to find a giant trampoline to put under you! Be right back! See, I KNEW cliff hangers were dangerous. The entire spanky population is in danger! (cues ominous music) *dun dun dun*
[Reply]
Someone should tell Chase that telling the truth when you’re already in trouble anyway is overrated. Another excellent installment, Loki.
Um, so Chicklet? We are gonna have to hang out for a while, cuz I read the story before getting that trampoline and now I’m dangling right along side you. Looooooki!!! Ninjas? Help us? I think we have no choice but to sing “99 Bottle of Beer on the Wall” while we wait. Maybe someone else will “drop” in *grin* and join us.

Hi guys! Sorry should have read the comments before the story, now I am hanging on here with you. So how many bottles of beer are left *whistles*
Thanks Loki. I know you are busy but please don’t keep us hanging here too long – my arms are older than they used to be, not sure how long I can hold on…….
[Reply]
Oh dear! Three hanging brats! Loki, if that doesn’t weigh on your conscience (not to mention your ledge), I don’t know what will!
Great chapter, as always. That “second date” line was hilarious. Chase is a wisearse and a half. Can’t wait till Agent Darby gets her in her clutches.
[Reply]
I can’t carry a tune in or out of a bucket so I’ll let you guys do the singing.
@Alyx Just wait a second—since when am I a brat? You have me confused with someone else.
@redbottomedgirl I disagree.—Honesty is always the best policy.
@Loki “Please hu hu hHEEEEELLLLLP US!!!!!!!!!!!!”
[Reply]
@1chicklet – hmm honesty always the best policy? I think that depends on who is holding the paddle and how close it is to being placed at speed on your behind!
[Reply]
Always tell the truth–cause I won’t be able to remember who I told what lie to—-I suffer from half-heimer’s–I’m not all the way there yet.
[Reply]
Wait, you know what would be better than help? Beer. NEXT PERSON WHO READS THE STORY, I HOPE YOU HEARD THAT!!!
@Alyx Hey, wait, you aren’t dangling. Howdja do that?
@chicklet you don’t have to be able to carry a tune to sing along! It’s not an aria
It’s no fun unless EVERYBODY sings really loudly. Uh-huh. For sure. Don’t argue >:p 
@HAL It’s ok, I don’t usually read the comments first either, cuz I’d hate to hit a spoiler. It’s been HOURS. I don’t think this protest is working. Can any of y’all hang upside down? Like a bat! Creepy. Nevermind.
[Reply]
@redbottomedgirl I don’t do alcohol–can it be Dr. Pepper? Umm, btw aren’t you afraid of causing a rock slide if we sing too loud? Alyx is perfect–she’s never naughty–just ask her. She always finds a way to get out of situations.
@anyone–what the H E double hockey sticks is a naughty step?
[Reply]
RBG, of course I’m dangling, just like the rest of you. We tops just do everything coolly. *passing out beers and Dr. Pepper with one hand while holding on with the other* But Chicklet is right in that I’m never naughty.
1Chicklet, a naughty step is just like a regular step, only it’s in a naughty house. Which is the only kind of house Loki would live in. She has naughty chairs, naughty tables…you should see her naughty toilet. It has padding for the times when she’s had a well-deserved spanking.*
*Which is all of them. Very well deserved.
[Reply]
@Alyx–Thank you for the Dr. Pepper and for explaining to this poor innocent angel what a naughty step is.
@Loki–What are you waiting for? A personal invite? Now would be a good time to help us out–I have to pee after all that Dr. Pepper Alyx gave me–please hurry I haven’t been on my first date yet—please help us.
[Reply]
*Ahem* Dangling is good for the mind and the body and the soul. And the more complaining I hear about the dangling, the more I know that a good sound dangling is needed!
[Reply]
@Loki–You let me worry about Alyx–you have far more important things that you should be concerning yourself with. Like where are you at with your Finn series? Oh, let me not forget–You need to get us off this dam* ledge I need to pee, Hal and Redbottomedgirl will need to pretty soon– If I pee myself–well you just best hope I don’t. Alyx is busy making sure we stay hydrated since you have not seen fit to make sure we have had anything to eat or drink. If we don’t get some help soon–well let me just say that you’ll be dangling over my knee and the tune you’ll be singing won’t be a pretty one.
[Reply]
Think you’re pretty tough coming in here and making threats, do you, little chicklet? Perhaps I’ll just leave you up there on that ledge until you learn to address me with all the respect I indubitably deserve
[Reply]
Yay for the beers and sodas!! Alyx’s naughty step definition is truly one of a kind. I may have permagrin all day now. Ok, have to leave Sappho’s Brats and go back to the real world now
Boo. Have a great weekend everybody.
[Reply]
Oh, Loki, Queen of Brats—–is that better?
