Dear Readers,

Nova-chan is dead. This is her loyal reviewer, pseudo-beta, and resident evil overlord, Thae-chan, taking over her FF account to tell all of you why she's being a lazy bum and not updating.

Instead of giving you a lengthy, word-filled explanation, chock full of nifty medical terms and free lemon poppy seed muffins, I have prepared a short interpretive dance, with mnwugn on oboe accompaniment.

((opens with "Novalee contracts various nasty diseases" mime))

((moves into "Nova's muse is kidnapped and taken to Zimbabwe to be ransomed by a pack of irate pygmy dentists" tango))

((continues with a spirited rendition of the "Thae hijacks a bus and drags sick Nova to Florida for Twinkies" step dance))

Thae is forced to stop her dance when mnwugn, exhausted from playing his oboe non-stop for the duration of her performance, passes out from lack of oxygen. Thae feels the irresistible urge to throw small rocks at his unconscious form. But I digress…

((Thae moves on to the "Nova, in her fevered state, forgets to fasten her safety harness while on the Incredible Hulk ride and is subsequently tossed to her doom in the theme park water feature below" ballet))

((and wraps up with the famed "Thae has stolen Nova's second Phantom of the Opera CD after her demise" Mexican hat dance))

Yours Evilly,

Thaelia15

NOTE:

Nova is not actually dead. Thae has just gotten Mini-Draco to turn her into a newt. She'll get better….

((pokes un-moving Nova with foot and glares at gleeful Mini-Draco))

….Eventually.
