Review Responses
Oh boy! Me and my big mouth!
Well, after so many of you were kind enough to respond to last week's subtle *cough* hint about posting reviews, the least I can do, is to keep my promise and write proper responses to you all.
BTW: Chpt 10 is ready to post and all being well with FF.net should be up later tonight.
So, pull up a chair, help yourself to a Zephon-shaped choccy, courtesy of AmuseMe (Mmmm dark and bitter, just how I like 'em!) and relax!
I've been giving the story a major behind-scenes overhaul this last two weeks, trying to close a few holes in the plot and just tighten it up generally, which is why I've been a little slow to post, bear with me, please!
Nocturnally Damned: So glad you're enjoying the little twists and turns in the plot so far and yep! you were right, that brooch definitely caused trouble. Loads more trouble to come too. I do so enjoy being mean to my characters! (A sentiment I somehow think you share!)
AmuseMe: Thank you so much for your comments * passes you another chocolate * I was pleased you liked my idea as to why the brothers might have started to devolve. It always bothered me that they just did but Kain didn't, and no reason offered in the game. This was the best explanation I could come up with. Oh, and I know what you mean about drooling over them. They can be rather distracting can't they? ; )
Mikoto: * bows * Too kind. I hadn't thought to compare the behaviour of the Sarafan in this story to the Salem Witch Trials, but you're right, there definitely are parallels. Glad the descriptions seem to be working without going OTT.
Jackie Almasy: Sorry to hear about the grief you're having with your computer. Hope things get back to normal for you soon. Then you can update your story, * hint, hint *
HealerAriel: If you liked that, you should like what's coming next too. I'll say no more!
Syvia: Confession: Sometimes, I'm not too sure where this is going either! When I first planned it, this story was going to be only 6 chapters long, (10 max.) and finished by last December! So pleased you're enjoying.
Dark Sephiroth: Thanks for being such a faithful reviewer! Since you've made your views on romance clear elsewhere, I just might consider letting young Kain out of my protective custody for a little while, as a consolation for having to read yet more of the stuff. But I want him back in one piece and STILL ALIVE! Well, undead, anyway. I haven't finished with him yet! ; )
*Sereda laughs evilly as she opens the closet door. Young Kain blinks dazedly in the light and then takes off with a yelp as Dark Sephiroth appears waving large sword *
Anyone who got left out. Sorry!!!!! It wasn't on purpose. Have a chocolate by way of apology.
Right, enough of this nonsense, on with the story.
