> Everyone on my planet is the same, diminutive size as me through youth and adulthood- anyone over 4 feet tall is considered as much of a freak of nature as someone who weighed 400 pounds or more would be amongst you guys. Still, people see me as a little girl and treat me like it. Until I open my mouth or throw a punch at them, that is.

I feel seen...

That was a really good story. I promise never to forget I have a brain; therefore, I'm probably not the only one who forgets!

Your storytelling in The Brat And The Burly Qs is fantastic! The Brat is unique and engaging, blending strength and wit in her mission. The sci-fi action on Mars and the inventive plot kept me hooked from start to finish.

A cyborg superhero in the guise of a three year old girl! Very imaginative! Lois McMaster Bujold is one of the finest Sf and fantasy writers around, and she created a hero who is a 4'9" hyperactive genius.(Miles Vorkosigan) But i think you have topped her in the improbable hero department.

Such a fun, imaginative read. I loved this sentence:

Seeing as no free-thinking real human woman I know would actually get involved with that crap unless they were really desperate for cash.

I enjoyed the overall flow and easy read. I might just get a t-shirt that says, "I'm a Brat Fan" :)

Engaging story, not typical of what I read, but good enough to want to read more. Liked it.

1. Wtf is this terrible speed-induced monologue and 2. Why are people calling it a story and 3. Why do all the comments sound like they were written by chatGPT...

All fair questions!
