ACK!

I think Tetsu needs to talk to Ibu-san. You know - he doesn't even have to do anything, just... loom. And scowl.

And have his older brother at his shoulder.

Yeah. I like that idea.

But for damage? Go for Kyosuke. He'd destroy the house.

Yeah. I like that idea, too.

[wiccanlilly]

*grins* I agree with you. And I do have one planned out where Shinji gets teamed up on and talked to. The thng is...I can't see Shinji *letting* them do anything. And therein lies my problem. How can I write that if they're going to have to do it behind Shinji's back?

This bears some thinking on....

[andersenmom]

Let me know if you want to brainstorm.

Also - you chose Shinji, but you don't have to have HIM in everything. Or, it doesn't all have to be from his pov.

If it's focused on him, he doesn't even have to make an appearance.

Or - he could hear from his parents afterwards, but that would be bad.

Hm. It does bear some thinking on.

Ooh! What if Shinji goes home to get his stuff - and takes the team with him, so it doesn't happen again?

[wiccanlilly]

That is true. I'm working on the next part in that--and it's actually going well, to the point where it's hard to stop long enough to type this--and the whole first 500 words is people other than Shinji.

That last idea bears merit...a lot od it...hmmm...no! I need to get *this* one out first! :)

[reader_a]

You almost got me in tears during this chapter, I want to be able to write like this. *sighs*
I am speachless.

[wiccanlilly]

*blushes and hides* Thank you so much! I'm glad that you thought it was powerful like that....

[dizzy_grace]

This is the second time I'm reading it, I know what was coming when I opened it and I'm still practically in tears! Sheesh! You did an amazing job with this chapter!

[wiccanlilly]

*blushes deeply* You're killing me...you really are. Thank you so much, but... *hides*

[dizzy_grace]

*grins* You're dying? That's not good. It was a very good fic, you know.

[wiccanlilly]

Sure. Grin first, then tell me dying is no good :-p And it didn't suck, I'll give it that much.

[traveling_storm]

Oh wow... ;__; I saw this coming as soon as Shinji's father hurled his cup but MAN I wasn't expecting it to that extent.

I agree with andersenmom - send the boys after Ibu-san. Bastard.

[wiccanlilly]

I'm sorry! I have to admit...i love Shinji to death, but he really is my whipping boy at times.

*smiles* Something will happen. I need to finish up my current arc first, though.
