Yeah! It's an annoying intermission chapter! In other words, I have a few things I'd like to comment. One: the fabulous, wonderful story is done with the help of my muse, Zargreus. He happens to be on this site and under his name is a story we both wrote called Demons and Dragons. It's original fiction, but really, really good! You could, I don't know, go and read it and review? Please? *poke, poke* Please? It's long but good!

The other thing I'd like to address is answering some reviews. Some people have asked questions or made comments on the story, and I know I love it when authors give me responses back. So if you've commented, look for your name in bold, otherwise, you can skip this boring chapter and move onto the next.

However, if you do read, you get to see and experience some of the genius behind the story (or maybe the insanity . . .). But I make a few comments about my own opinions of the story and its characters, if you're interested. You get to see what goes on in the head of the author as she types this crazy thing. And yes, for those of you who didn't know or couldn't guess, I am a she.

First off, to brainfear- thank you very much. I tried to make it entertaining.

LASP- glad I made another Soul Reaver fan.

Jimbo Jones- I obviously have, and it's not quite over just yet. *grin*

To Kazumitsu, Jave Harron, and brainfear again-Thank you, and my fingers only move so quickly over the keyboard. (Plus, I'm lazy. ;-P)

Anna Hendrixson- Happy to meet someone who likes both games as well.

Of course, who can forget Ali? Thank you for your constant attention to my stories and the flow of compliments. I love them, really I do. J

Mish L, super nova, and AmuseMe- I can only write so fast! Do you get the feeling I get asked to post more soon a lot? *impish grin*

Syvia- I am having fun reading your self-insertion fics and the stories you write with Anamae. Wish I could review them, but my bloody computer refuses to let me review, and neither of you have a working email address I can find.

Areai Moonlight- I like the pairing, too. Really, Raziel could only settle down with a woman as dominant and as outdoorsy as he, and Lara would not be able to stand most normal humans. It was a fun relationship to work with.

Kittie, Honlei of the Inferno, TaleSpinner, and silmir- Thank you, thank you, thank you, and the story has continued much further since that point.

The Dark Reaver- Ahhh, yes. Thank you for the compliment, the story's almost finished, and I hope that comment about Raziel was a joke. I did purposely leave the impression he liked her. But either way, I love know that people pick up on my subtle hints.

Raziel: Subtle?

Shut-up.

And to The Impure Hedgehog- ummmmmmmmmmmmmm. . . WHY are you chasing Kain with a chainsaw?!!!??!

Bloodthirsty- Glad you like it. And for all you Kain girl fans out there, YES THERE WILL BE A POINT WHERE THEY'LL PLAY STRIP POKER! Sorry about the typos. They're probably my fault. I start typing and don't stop to really look at what I'm typing.

AmuseMe- All I have to say is why would I want Zephon as my slave for eternity? Last I checked, you got him, too.

Angelofdarkness- I tried to include as much detail into the story as I could so those who hadn't played Soul Reaver could follow along, while also balancing out trying not to put TOO much in, which would bore all those I had. Apparently I succeeded, so thank you for informing me.

SS4 Trunks, Kittie¸ and SpitefulHope- Another round of thank yous. And I'm glad you liked the scene between the two, Spite.

Eternal Damnation- ………… *anime sweatdrop* I assume you liked the pairing ……

USA Tiger and VladimirsAngel- Thank yous never end, so instead I'll say…. Squiggle bottom.

LOK cast: *sweatdrop*

WHAT?!

LOK cast: Nothing!!

Silveriss- PLAY TOMB RAIDER GAMES!!! That's all I have to say on that topic, thank you.

Flamekaat- thank you- or should I say squiggle bottom?- but anyway, I'm glad the pair sticks. I think I may have started to read your fanfic, but I can't honestly remember. I'd be glad to read it if I could be sent a copy or whatever, as long as I can send comments through email.

Jb- squiggle bottom.

Kain-is-my-plushie- No, I didn't die, just went through a lazy spell. *runs away as angry readers try to pound head in with mallets* Hey, can I have a Kain plushie? *sniffle* Pwease?

Syvia- noticed the "oh shit" coming on, did you? *chuckle* Just you wait and see….

Seul Desir- Well, you know? It actually wasn't hard PUTTING the two together in the same situation. What was actually the most challenging was getting them to stay together and NOT KILL each other. And we're not even going to go into how much of a bitch it was to think of the entire meeting with Kain . . . Woo. Had to think of witty comments AND a way to keep them from killing each other.

Sephiroth's Vampire Princess- Did I ever tell you that I absolutely adore Sephiroth? Very, very cute. In a different way from Raziel, of course, but DragonSeer is not going to go into the fangirl thing right now. I'm glad the story seems like it could actually be part of the series. That what I was trying to get when I wrote it. I mean, does it really seem that odd that Lara would be on Nosgoth dealing with Raziel and Kain? She does have a tendency to be at the heart of trouble. We'll see how that heart resolves. And yes, Raziel was supposed to have blonde hair in chapter 6. He was under an illusion spell, and I purposely made him look not like himself so if any of those EVIL FANGIRLS get into my story, they will not recognize him.

MWUAHAHAHAHA!!! And now on to the battle . . .
