This is a interesting story so far. As for the resemblence to Pokemon: Don't see it at ALL. I would just ignore that flame because you're doing a great job. Even if it DID resemble Pokemon, your story at least has GOOD writing so that flamer was kind of out of line (as most of them are).

[harumi]

Oooh. Thanks.

The next chapter will be longer. With my foxes. And maybe...finally...I will manage to fit in the slash I'd been intending since the beginning.

*blushes at compliments*

There are so many ridiculous accusations on FF.net. I wouldn't be surprised if someone wrote them out ahead of time and replied to fics with them randomly.

[harumi]

^_^

I figured. I was just...surprised. I've always gotten a few, but that one went waaaay past my head. So I thought I'd share it.

[sherryillk]

Pokemon? How did they see that? I watched Pokemon (I was young, my brother loved it and they were cute, okay?) and I don't see a resemblance at all.

I love this, I really do. I wish it was a bit longer but I'll settle for faster updates. :)

[harumi]

I am forced to watch pokemon with my brother all the time, so I know exactly what it is about, and I don't see it at all either.

It's giving me such lovely crack!fic plot bunnies though...

This one was short. It's an interlude before another *hopefully* biggy. I needed to develop Ogata. ^_^

Hundreds of years later, the many offspring from Shirohebi’s line had propagated to different parts of the world-some even as far as England, or so the rumors said.

Humans with Serpent/Dragon ancestry in England--that's very interesting. Do you have any plans for that throwaway line?

Regarding the comment on FF.net--I don't detect any resemblance to Pokemon. What I do see is a coincidental similarity to Dune. The Orochi breeding the Touya family to produce the true Ryu is eerily like the Bene Gesserit working on the noble families of the Galactic Empire to produce the Kwisatz Haderach--a psychic messiah. I don't mind it. In fact, I think it's a nice touch.

Anyway, keep up the good work!

[harumi]

I told you. I have loooong plans. Someday, I hope to insert this into an HP/HikagoAU crossover.

Can you guess which HP family line would be from Shirohebi's? ^_^

[darksumomo]

Slytherin, of course. I just wanted to make sure I made the correct inference. That way, I can say--nice foreshadowing!

[jamfase]

New chapter! (Love.)

I like the focus as Ogata in this chapter. I've always felt that Ogata never really gets enough credit in fics. (Though I must admit, now that you've centralized him in a chapter like this I'm just totally waiting for when he starts meddling in Akira's affairs for his own personal amusement.)

That, and: Hundreds of years later, the many offspring from Shirohebi’s line had propagated to different parts of the world-some even as far as England, or so the rumors said. Let it be known that my first reaction was 'Harry Potter, please?' ^^;;

As for Pokemon- I think the best idea here is don't ask. Some people are just strange.

Waiting for your next chapter. :)

Someone asked me to develop Ogata's character in a previous review, and I saw the reasoning behind the request. You're right, Ogata doesn't get enough airtime, and he's such a smexy, intelligent man. My circle of friends know him as Ogata-sexy-san for a reason.

Let it be known that my first reaction was 'Harry Potter, please?' ^^;;

YES!!! Someone caught the reference! Do you know how much I'm dying to do a crossover of this fic with HP? Ogata would technically become Lord Voldemort's distant relative.

O_o Yes. I'm sane. Really. No. Don't ask. Don't. Okay fine. Ask. But I can't promise a coherent answer.

[jamfase]

Since you offered, I will ask: Pokemon?

As for a HP crossover...

Yes, please. XD

(Ogata being related to LV is just way too much to resist.)

[harumi]

I can imagine the scene where everybody finds out...

*insert major O_o here*

And Ogata would light his cigarette, look around, and say something sardonic. <3

Pokemon: I'll fit it in my busy schedule...somehow.
