Yay! Was hoping you'd comment on this:
Should Old Acquaintance Be Forgot

WAI!
Yep. The wait is over.

Me, too. O_O
Thought it might throw people for a curve momentarily.

ARGH! More teasing of the reader. ^_-
Lots of past history referred to here. Expect to see none of it explained.
:)

>"Right," Yuri said, relaxing somewhat.
Hehehehehe
It's good to have true friends like these, ain't it?

O_O
LOL!
Well, it was an easy mistake for Kei to make. Trust me. :)

HEEE!
Actually there are lots of things about women I sure don't want to know.
Just better off being kept in ignorance.

Hehehehehe...
Iria knows how to play them like a flute.

Hehehehe
Heck of a shopping list to fill in on short notice.
>Rene Foulcard
Nice name. ^_^
Random, actually. Is it actually from some other work and I'm not
remembering.?

:) Ah, the trials and tribulations of trying to stay pretty. :)
A problem all women have. Us guys don't worry about it. We're either ugly or
we're not. :)

Number 6: I am a man! Not a number!
Nah. He's a corpse in about twenty seconds.

ERK!!!
Thought that one might throw people. :)
Well, plot twist after plot twist in this one.
Yep. Trying to keep the reader interesting partially by keeping things off
balance. Actually moving along at a pretty fast clip. Not too fast, I hope.
Am trying to keep the action rolling and not bogging down in excessive
details. Not that there is anything wrong with that kind of style, just it
is not the one I am using.
Heh, nice chapter. Sorry I didn't have more commentary, but the
chapter was very clean.
Thanks. Just do your best. C+C on this one is enjoyed a little more than
most of what I get on other fics because of the sparseness of it for this
series.

O_o
Not going to disgrace the list by posting that one. Have to wander to the
ole' homepage to see what depths of cheezy depravity I have sunk to. 'The
Problems With Getting Off' (The title alone just makes you cringe, does it
not?) ^_^
>BTW: No one said 'Clydesdales' is a reference to horses.
>Of course, it
>doesn't say it's not either. ^_^
GAH!
Yes. Cringing in fear. Just the reaction I was looking for. :)
Thanks again.
