:    I'm rather fond of this series. :)

To say I was rather fond of this series would be akin to saying I
was rather dependent on breathing.


:    In the first place, I like the job you did with the Snow-Woman and her
: Tengu associate. Far too often, new characters in fics are rather one
: dimensional and dull. This, by contrast, is a excellent blending of myth
: and personality. 

I really love the way she keeps this fic in the realms of the
mythical fairy tale, while leaving the setting as it is - in a
modern day city.  Too many fics that center on the fantastic
chicken out by transporting the place of action out into the
wilderness, or China, or elsewhere.


:    Not sure why Nabiki suspects Cologne. Granted, Nabiki is devious and
: perceptive and all that, but Cologne's story is perfectly plausible. Ah
: well, it moves the plot along.

It's called female intuition coupled with a keen mind and thorough
understanding of human nature as well as the techniques of fraud.


:    Hope to see the next installment soon. :)

Seconded.

Say, how about C&C for this one?  And if yes, when?  After she is
done, in one big posting (which would mean cutting down on the C&C
*now*), or in parts, as the installments come out?
