Here we meet Jane's Dark half, and Jane defeats her dark half

This is really an excellent story.  Tigger turns the old hackneyed petticoat domination story into something I found fascinating.  Mucho Kudos to Tigger.

Dear Tigger:

  I feel as if I am rediscovering your work. What was I thinking before, I don't know. This had to be read after enjoying Ken's Barbie so much. I knew the basic story from reading that and where Ken was coming from but still this story is wonderful, even knowing the plot.  Once again Jane Thompson proves she has a heart of gold.  Fast moving, exquisitely detailed, and simply delightfully delicious. You are a master of the petticoat discipline tale. And you weave together a story built on love and concern, no matter how tough that love is.

  I really appreciate this story and hope you are working on many more. Of course this story is for those who like longer stories but it is eminently worth the time.  Just wish I had the discipline to stop reading and go to bed. To good of a story for that though. I just love it!

Hugs,

Kristi

Very good story. I enjoyed seeing Ken(dra)'s mother get her comeuppance at the hands of the *VERY LAST* person I would have expected. Nice to know that the aristocratic Jane Thompson has a temper. I wouldn't have wanted to be in Shiela's shoes!
One problem, though--the reference to "McClintock!" is correct--the line was: "I know, I know. I'm going to use good judgement. I haven't lost my temper in FORTY YEARS. But, PILGRIM, you caused a lot of trouble this morning, and might have got somebody killed. And SOMEBODY ought to BELT you in the mouth. But I won't. I won't. The HELL I won't!"
Also, as someone else said, "The Duke", as "Tom Doniphon",  referred to James Stewart's character, "Ranse Stoddard", as "pilgrim" in the film "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance."

Comments from readers are never what we would like to see. And here within Tiggers story section we can see a prime example of this.

This author is one of the best on the site and has taken the time to give us some wonderful tales and adventures to follow. Yes, she does deserve a few more comments. It's a shame that so many come and never take a few monemts in time to give a comment.

All I can say is like her other stories this one does nothing to deminish her ability to tell a tale. I love her work and look forward to reading many more.

I agree wholeheartedly with Ann O'Nonymous -- this is an excellent story (as are all of Tigger's "Aunt Jane" stories). The character and plot development are both first-rate -- lots of surprises and truly moving events en route to resolving the situation.

Aw, come on people--this is a really great story! Since I'm the first to comment, I must say I like the idea of tearing down the old, stereotypical male and rebuilding him into a real man. One with self-esteem, not ego; self-respect, not macho blustering!
