Thanks - I've added your story to the list!

Let's see if DVS is a safe bet even if it's a manga crossover! ;-)

Thank you for the reminder!

My pleasure!

I would love to hear your opinion about the older lads story - and the manga crossover... ;-)

I have to admit that I don't even know what Manga is! (apart from the fact it was once mentioned in QAF-UK).

Whoops, sorry that me was.

Actually.....that sounds better and far more interesting than that was me

*g* The icon for Anonymous is quite nice!

Yeah, I like that me was too! ;-)

Same here with Manga! I associate 'comic', Japanese or Chinese with it - and that's it.
But when Cloudless recced it two years ago, I became curious and googled a bit. And that was enough to enjoy the story. YOu only have to know the three main characters.
In fact, Patalliro! is quite entertaining.

I'm probably missing something but I'm not sure it's for me! (They all sound a bit angry.) Thanks, anyway.

I know what you mean.
Nobody could convince me to read a crossover with something I don't care for!

I hope the story for this week is more your cup of tea!

Oh, I was talking about the Manga vids, I haven't even looked at the story (not recently anyway, I might have looked at it years ago but I can't remember!).

[firlefanzine.livejournal.com]

Oh, now I see your "(They all sound a bit angry.)". Sorry!
I was agreeably surprised by the vids because they are very nicely done from the visual aspect, so that I have ignored the 'angry sound' of it.
