Lace Neil Singer, thank you very much for reintroducing me to my last meal 
On a different note, I once had a critique of my aliens fanfic that I wasn't putting enough detail and description into my characters. I generally prefer to add small details over time, allowing readers' imaginations to fill in the blanks and have developed an image over time, on their own. Dumping a load of appearance detail all at once gets forgotten over time (assuming it's a long story).
I just realized something frightening. I suspect some Sue-authors are aware readers will forget details over the course of a long story, and continue to assault us with gratuitous descriptions again and again.. uh-oh here comes my last meal again!
