Feedback for Sunhawk
Magi finally twisted my arm, so I'm here now as well. Steve has been posting most of my stuff lately, but I didn't see Triple Threat up, so I've posted it now that it is complete. And yes, I'm a newb when it comes to writing, any and all feedback is really appreciated, even of the 'that SUCKS' variety
