Thank you! That's such a high compliment; character voices and world-realism are two things I strive very hard for when I write. I always read my fic aloud to myself for dialogue flow, but then I bite my nails afterward anyway until the reviews start coming in. =)

There'll be many more words where these came from, Muse willing. I have a few more short bits in mind, and then a larger one planned for the Star Trek Big Bang challenge.
