Very interesting story! I like how they "accidentally" become superheroes.

Wow!
I mean, not "Wow!", exactly, but wow.
The slow creep of meaning -- you know? -- and how easily I could believe this, not just that everybody who has pretty decent sex thinks, you know, they're super, but that THESE EXACT PEOPLE think they're super. 'cause they're not.
But your story is: both super and wow! And the feelings are nicely mixed in your story, and in your characters, And you make it seem easy. Real easy. And it reads like that, but I could see the possibility of either // comics or movies or something // using this kind of story to make something much bigger, much bigger. But I like your story just the way it is. you could keep going and I'd keep reading the twists and turns could continue or not.
Thanks for the fun and the story.

What a great story! I'd definately be interested in reading something a lot longer set in this world. I especially loved the razor sharp wit in here.

She's a writer of eyeball-popping fiction with an emotional kick! He's a reader with ready-to-pop eyeballs looking for a good read! They fight... well, actually, no, they don't fight.
This was a fun story. And also more than fun. Kudos to SH and LB.

I've been looking though the archives and I haven't read them all yet, but this is my favorite so far. It makes me remember when I used to read The Flaming Carrot. I've always liked the idea of super heroes who aren't quite as super as they'd like to be.
