Eh. It's not a very badly written story, but there's not much to keep me reading. Lycra has some definite Mary Sue-ish tendancies (i.e. she has not a single character flaw), and that is a big turn-off. I'd also repeat the suggestion made by another reviewer and say that your story needs some kind of problem/conflict. There's something here about what Lycra is going to do w/ her life, but it doesn't seem to bother anyone in the story that much, and so it doesn't seem like much a conflict to the reader. My final suggestion would be that you add a bit of description and action to complement your dialogue. You do the dialogue very well, and it is wonderfully natural and believable, but there's nothing to supplement the dialogue, and so things can get a little confusing at times. Other than that, you seem to have a pretty nice story going here.

Love it! You're writing style is beautiful! It's a great story. I like how you develop the different characters and their situations. It needs a little more...i don't know, plot? but not really. More like conflict? Or action? I don't know the right word, it's just floating around in my head but it won't form into something solid...it needs a lil' something though. I do really like it though and I hope you continue! Please!
