Welll, unexpected plot twists are quite standard for you. But I did not expect a happy ending. Unless you’ve got another unexpected plot twist coming up. It’s your tale, so take it where you will. But this was kinda nice. So thanks for that.

It's actually kind of sweet, although also kind of a "bed trick" scenario that would be considered rape in many places. Although, that depends on your position on how distinct dimensional variants are...

I feel bad for the other dimension Angus now. He's probably wondering why he's lost his LL.

Appears to me Angus could send her back to where she came from if high level henches can do that..

I want to think that the Lethal Librarian is more concerned for her underling's well being than gossip.

Lookit Mr. Fancy Pants over here, showin' off his knowledge about some Polish book called "Solaris" and what not. Tryin' to act all high and mighty, like he's better den the rest of us.

Hey… she’s a librarian! I had to come up with something good! 😂

In the intro, I think you mean "Lightning Lady...." Unless there's another parallel LL running around (please?).
