Eventually.

Some day.
Keep in mind that Zig Zag, James and the "crew" have been neglected for 2 acts. Don't begrudge them their time in the limelight at the start of Act IV as I get the ball rolling.

Just wait and see.
The big thing is that I needed to bring Zig Zag and James up to speed and didn't want to have ONLY THEM... This isn't the ZZ Stuido story. I needed a distraction and that's Hazel. She and Zig Zag will be pretty prominant in the next few chapters until Sheila makes her appearance at which point things will slowly shift more and more towards Sheila.
Just hang back and enjoy the ride. This isn't going to end in 10 chapters so relax and watch as things unfold. 
Cheers

Great timing on the chapter!  
I got a cold today. But at least it isn't as bad as Zig's (so I hope at least).

Nice chapter. Good to see James and Zig Zag getting past their confusing state of affairs before the misunderstandings escalated any further.
The alteration in Zig's speech due to her cold got rather thick for my taste. One passage that particularly threw me for a loop was this one:
| Quote: | | “Oh, dang God,” Zig Zag declared as she began to quietly cry with relief. “Dang you, David. Dang you.” |
In many areas, "dang" is colloquial for "d*mn". I had to reread it before I realized that in this case, "dang" means "thank". It might be less confusing if you use "dank" instead.
Hazel is working out to be quite an interesting character. If she is a go-fer, does that mean Clarence is going to be one of her cow-orkers?

Well this is taking place about one year farther in time then ZZtS and SOtS so it's possible that Clarence is no longer working there concentrating on his studies as he'd be in his final year by this time.

*sighs* Ummm.. Actually.... I'd never considered using Clarence in Act IV. Although he's turned into a rather popular character for Chris, I never really was drawn to the Clarence and Cindy side story.
I may change my mind later, but for now don't really expect to see him in there.
Cheers.

For Zig to have bovine employees would be udderly fantastic. They could be the cream of the crop.
But then Zig was always full of the milk of furry kindness.

My friend, you have me totally cowed, I cannot go into this calf-hearted. So I shall be seen and not herd and no longer churn this topic.
-Edit- And, no, I'm not trying to butter you up.

I'm steer-ing clear of this herd. This grazes along the line of bad punnery. I'll just hoof it back to the blither blather beef-ore I lose my mind.
