Yesssss! Great name.

Hooray for Calliope Cervantes! I’m surprised the guy didn’t try throwing the jammed gun at her. Small question: Should that last line say indenturing? Probably not, since that’s clunkier, but “indenture” threw me off a touch.

Indenture should be right. Didn’t want to just call it “contract” because the slavery thing is kind of the point.

Ahahaha, “Maybe he didn’t hear that,” is great. You’ve got a great touch with humor in your characterizations.

Ah, yes I see now. Anyway, I’m still just happy to see Calliope out and about.

“IRS, bitch,” she crooned…

I can hear her voice so strongly in my head based on just the few words before it that it makes that line absolutely bad ass.

Taxion Hero, anyone? I’ll let myself out.

Hahaha, very kinetic, very awesome.

Calliope is awesome. I hope you write more of these.

Calliope rolls off the tongue with a touch of sugar. Well Done.
