Great to see you back on Gurochan BR2. I'm a big fan of all the way through stuff, it's one of those kinks that is hard to get good material for. Most of the time, if it's in a story at all, it's relegated to a single paragraph right at the end or something.

This is a much more restrained and "realistic" take on it than what I usually see, for lack of a better word, but the element of peril and danger really works for me, as does the slow build up to the main event.

As for suggestions? Well, I'd like to see-

>>@Pogue: Yes, piercing her head and maybe even the brain is definitely among the "maybe" list, too. A thin rod shouldn't do too much damage there, should it?

Ah, got me covered then. Carry on! :p Only question is, how? There's JIP's suggestion, but what about through the ears? Or, if she was feeling bold, right through the middle of her forehead, between the brain's two hemisphere's? Covering it up would be harder, but as you said, it doesn't have to be a BIG hole...
