That doctor is history XD
"It’s always amazing to hear your own words come back to you" I love how well you used that fact in your story, and on Hiruma of all people, just fantastic!

Yeah pretty much. His fate's been sealed and he doesn't even know it.

Hehe, I tend to send people's words back at them. Mostly because I just remember them very well. Emiko's the same way.

Looks like Hiruma and Emiko are pretty similar in their own ways. And it's good that they've now established on what's important. Even though I'm more eager to see what will be done unto the doctor, I shall look forward to the Rice Bowl. ^^

Well they are father and daughter, physically Emiko is made from half of Hiruma. Also Hiruma is the most influential adult in her life, and has always been. Which allows me to play with the similarities.

And, especially with an autistic child, but with kids its critical to establish right and wrong, what is and isn't important right away. Even Hiruma knows that much. Also it helps her calm down if you talk her through it (that's probably the the foremost reason he did some of those things).

Actually the part where he was talking about making Emiko say one word at a time is taken directly out of what happened in my own life. I used to stutter, not because I had issues talking, but I had issues saying all the things that were in my mind quickly enough. Sometimes if I'm truly excited, my mind runs ahead of my mouth and all that comes out is grabbled sounds. Anyways, Emiko doesn't stutter anymore because her Papa taught her to slow down and say things one word at a time.

Oh yess~ I have plans for that. >:3

I had relatives whose kids stuttered as well, and their grandmother would explain the condition to me. I always thought it was just a child thing, so it was interesting to discover the logic behind it. And yes, it is important to establish what is right and wrong with a child, so this was quite an interesting chapter indeed. ^^

Haha! So looking forward to it! ^^

Well for some kids its nervousness, or just a habit. For me it was always just having my brain run faster than I could talk. It's quite embarrassing to be in a class, have an answer, and stutter it out because you're so excited to share it. ^^;;

Yeah, I'm getting a good bit of work done. It's better than I realized. I think I've managed to capture the thrill of the game pretty well. Hopefully I can keep it up until the end of it without slipping up too much.....
