I'm not really going to really do anything about it, with chances for my agents going public becoming less and less likely by the month. The question is more academic than anything, with implications for other, future goodfic nevertheless marred by the presence of a Sue.

And in many respects ii is goodfic, quite exceptional goodfic... it's just that the introductory Sue just curled my nose-hairs. If she was just a daughter of the Immortal Macbeth, I could have reconciled: Mac had a fling during the early 70's, had to leave in a hurry due to the immortal struggle with his adversary Demona, she tracks him down, bada-bing.

But she's also the daughter of Titania (sp?) Queen of the Fae... who canonically is also the mother of Janine Renard, later Fox Xanatos. And that the two-half sisters have a history is just too much to be believable.

Is letting one Sue live worth it to preserve an otherwhise great piece of fanfic? (or vice-versa?)
