Bard Linn: Hello, all! And we hope you have enjoyed chapter 19!

Kiraya: >D

Bard Linn: In which the relationships tangle again and we generally cause problems.

Kiraya: Mmmmhmmmm.

Kiraya: But it's such FUN.

Bard Linn: Well it is, yes. But usually that's my line.

Kiraya: Well... it's no fun if we don't scramble things up a little sometimes. :P

Bard Linn: Well, I guess we'll have to go over our messes in order then. I'm fond of the scene in the beginning here with Zack. It demonstrates how sometimes he doesn't always know what the heck is going on. He's just good at faking.

Kiraya: A skill I wish I had.

Kiraya: Unfortunately, I'm a terrible liar.

Bard Linn: Yeah well, takes all kinds

Kiraya: I'm actually rather fond of the next bit with Cloud, myself.

Bard Linn: Which bit?

Kiraya: Where he's talking about the differences in training.

Kiraya: Particularly his enjoying Seph's training without the hero complex getting in the way.

Bard Linn: Yeah, that's nice. Those two are very alike in some ways, training being one of 'em.'

Bard Linn: Hm....Ah, also, I am amused that Zack's mental voice is Aeris. Especially considering she
CAN hear voices

Kiraya: Indeed.

Bard Linn: Vincent is awkward at giving relationship advice, but that's cute. <3

Kiraya: Seph's awkward at taking it himself.

Bard Linn: He is. And poor Cloud is all "AHH WHAT DID I DO!"

Bard Linn: Hm. Anything else of note this chapter?

Kiraya: Zack?

Bard Linn: What about the poor boy?

Kiraya: Um.

Kiraya: He's... fun to poke at?

Bard Linn: He is. This chapter should be subtitled "top three reasons why Zack isn't perfect" or something like that.

Kiraya: I like imperfect!Zack, though.

Kiraya: He's so much FUN.

Bard Linn: HE IS.

Kiraya: And woobie. *hugs him*

Bard Linn: Yup.

Bard Linn: I think that's basically it.

Bard Linn: Well, since we've covered the squeeing for this chapter, I guess all that's left if so remind all of you that the next update is on October 14, not in two weeks. Again, we're switching to a once a month update schedule (second Saturday at 8 pm EST) due to various circumstances.

Kiraya: See you then!

*wibbles* Oooh, interpersonal squabbles! *squees* So many clueless people. Always fun. *loves you guys* Moooooooore.

Yes. The number of clueless people is sad, isn't it? *sighs*

Next month, next month. :P

*wibbles* SO MUCH WOOB! And Vincent giving relationship advice is so very wrong. And yet so funny.

Yes, it is. Sadly, he's the only one who can. XD But it is entertaining....

Yes. In a "Get some popcorn and watch the fireworks" kind of way. ^__^

Awww... Heh, you know things are really awkward when Vincent of all people tries to give advice XD

In any case, great chapter as usual (I keep squeeing at that mental picture I have of Sephiroth and Cloud training together, because it is just so cute), and I can't wait to find out how The Talk goes. Though I'll have to, now that you're on to the once a month schedule, but at least it gives me an excuse to go right back to the beginning and read the whole thing all over again ^___^

Yup. And yet he tries so hard....

(It is, it is!)

We do that on a regular basis. Helps with creativity, I think. And catching things in the continuity. Glad you're still enjoying it!

I love this story.
It's so hard to find stories like this were Cloud isn't a pushover, Sephiroth and Vincent aren't too unemotional and robotic, and Zack is just to perfect and all-knowing for his own good. <3 These are the same reasons I like Fusion so much. However, this one updates more, so you two are on the top of my people-to-check-list. Also, this chapter just made me feel all warm and fluffy inside. *parents are telling her to stop acting like a mad woman on drugs*
Well, I'm off to go find my brain now. Till next time.

I'm glad! We try to work on the characterizations and make them very real, as much as possible given the circumstances. XD (Fusion is total love. <333333333333)

Yay for warm and fluffy!

I think my parents have given up on that. XD Good luck finding your brain!

Wow, Zack seems to like picking fights over Cloud, first with Vincent and now with Sephiroth... Wonder how he'll react when he finds out Cloud's been visiting Aeris.

I'm liking Elanor more and more, she's nice and practical instead of a throwaway character. That and her musings on grandchildren are fun.  Though is Cloud going to remain asexual through the whole fic?

And, well, I don't know if this counts as gift art or not because it's not an actual scene-- but it's cute anyway.

Zack is of course teasing Cloud and Sephiroth is trying to stop himself from kicking his chocobo into starting. >_> Way too much time on my hands.

First of all, your icon totally wins. XDDD

We like Elanor a lot. Sometimes it feels like we're just pointlessly spoiling ourselves by writing her, so we're glad to hear someone else likes her too! ^.^ And THAT would be telling. ;)

That IS SO CUTE! *squee!* Thanks so much. <3<3<3

Wai, what a great chapter!

The story just gets more and more interesting now. XD I must add I had a similar reaction to Aeris when she thought about Cloud's obvious innocence. XD

From: [identity profile] bard-linn.livejournal.com
We do try to make it more interesting. *grin* Cloud has like "innocent for life" plastered on his back or something....

Wonderful chapter! I loved it!

It's so cute how Zack gets all jealous and possessive about Cloud. "MY STUDENT! MINE! RAWR!" and Sephiroth is all "o_O Chill out." I really hope they work out their differences.

He DOES. It's entertaining. Poor Seph. We challenge him on their emotions too much.

I'm sure they will. They may just have to duel to do it.

Cloud: Dueling was outlawed several decades ago due to the number of deaths or else I would - *muffled*

Now Cloud, that's a spoiler for later on - much later on. *gags him*

*snicker* I find the image of Sephiroth with a 19th century dueling pistol hilarious.

Zack: Now see, we each take ten steps away from each other, then turn and fire. One, two, three...
Seph: *exchanges gun for Masamune while Zack's back is turned*
*stabbity*
Zack: The bastard did it AGAIN!
Cloud: *whimper*

All these guys are so awkward with relationships (but that's one of the things that make them so cute <3) Luckily there are also some girls more skilled here to help them, or else things would never improve *hugs Aeris and Elanor*

Yay girl power! ^.^ Thank, Wayya!

They are so awkward, aren't they? *pats them*
