Thanks -- fortunately the pipes proved to be a fairly easy fix. What happened is that the new stuff needed to be tightened, and then the pipes flushed because some gunk had built up in the old ones because, obviously, we hadn't had a kitchen sink for over a month! So yeah, that had to be cleared, and it seems to be working well now.

You actually already gave me a prompt a while back after I did the fic for your birthday: "dead!Lightning from the birthday fic (Lizzie and Bonejangles’s dog) meeting Scraps." But I'm willing to switch to "Chester's first color" from the Technicolor Phase AU if you're feeling that more!
