Butterfly Effect: Author's Notes: Chapter 22

[bard_linn]

Bard Linn: Ahem. Welcome to hell week, where you can study your brains out for the low price of your sanity!

Bard Linn: ....Oh wait. That's not what I meant....

Kiraya: Or spend all your time writing papers. :P

Kiraya: ...though really, who am I kidding, there?

Bard Linn: Somehow I doubt you are spending all of your time writing papers.

Bard Linn: Exactly.

Bard Linn: No one.

Bard Linn: However, despite our difficulties, we have managed to update this week! Not QUITE on the usual schedule, but still!

Kiraya: It's been a long semester, and we need a break.

Bard Linn: If I can just Survive until Thursday afternoon....

Kiraya: *patpat* You'll be fine, dear.

Bard Linn: *deathpan* We moved our sessions from 10-8 to 9-8.

Kiraya: ...... *sigh*

Bard Linn: (That's AM to PM, dears.)

Kiraya: She's insane, I'm telling you.

Bard Linn: Not denying it.

Bard Linn: Ahem. But more about the chapter and less about my obsessive compulsive sanity depriving habits....

Bard Linn: I'm rather happy with how this chapter came out.

Kiraya: My favourite part is still the Vin-Cloud scene at the end. <3

Bard Linn: Yes, I really do like that!

Bard Linn: But also, we have Reno for the first time on page!

Kiraya: I was kind of nervous about him, actually.

Bard Linn: He's hard to write because there is so much more to him than what he shows.

Kiraya: Reconciling the playful, goofy side with the cold hard killer so that he doesn't seem to bounce between extremes so easily.

Bard Linn: Very much so. I know some of the readers have been waiting for him - I hope you enjoy him and I do promise he will be back. He shows up quite a bit more than I expected at first, actually.

Kiraya: Probably because some of the boys have a tendency to shove their way more into it once they show up.

Kiraya: (I'm looking at you, Chaos.)

(Chaos: *does a reasonable impression of lifting an eyebrow*)

Bard Linn: Other than that, this chapter could be called the "birthday filler" chapter, in which we try to cover a LOT of time at once without (x months later, +/- y days) syndrome. I'm sure some of you would like the story to get back to the plot, after all. I'm sure that its around here SOMEWHERE....

Kiraya: ...I think it might pick up next chapter. Maybe the chapter after?

Bard Linn: Something like that. *waves hands* I'm too tired to check.

Kiraya: And I'm distracted by baatezu.

Bard Linn: Er, yeah. Whatever.

Bard Linn: So anyway, fair readers, I think we shall say goodbye for this post. We shall see you next week!

Kiraya: Next month, dear.

Kiraya: After the holidays.

Bard Linn: Right. Next month.

Kiraya: So happy whatever you celebrate, and a good New Year's!

Bard Linn: See, I told you I need sleep! Next thing you know I'll be saying the Pythagoreans discovered complex numbers.

Bard Linn: Yes! Enjoy the holidays, and your vacation if you get it. See you soon!

You'd have to ask Kir that. The only type of demons I know are Math Demons.

No, BC events are not happening in the background. In fact, our Veld and Canon!Veld are probably pretty different, but Tseng really shouldn't be leader yet (age and experience wise) so we figured we'd keep Veld in and play with him!

Glad you enjoyed. ^_^
