I've been meaning to post these pics for over a week now. My brother and one of my friends (demonalchemist9) and I did an Avatar cosplay group at Megacon weekend before last, and I thought the Avatar fans on my flist might enjoy seeing them.

Chapter 77: In which Yuki WILL NEVER SPEAK TO YOU AGAIN!

This chapter is Yuki-centric. It starts out with another brief flashback where Yuki asks the two younger council members, Machi and Nao, if they'd like souvenirs from the school trip. Both say no. Yuki thinks that his fellow council members are unique….Manabe is always asking questions about ( Read more... )

To my Furuba friends: chapter discussions are back (after a bit of a hiatus) on a new bi-weekly schedule. I posted the new thread for Chapter 74 today. Also, I've been adding replies to ch. 69-71 over the last couple of days, with more to come on ch. 72-73. I hope some of you will return to the discussion--or join in for the first time, if you ( Read more... )
