Sorry for the late reply! Suninos has informed me that, due to either drinking too much absinthe after taking oxycodone or not sleeping enough (I forget! --probably the latter), he worded the question very poorly. What he meant was this: until now we've been posting the Susan/Adric chapters in the same fashion we posted interludes in arc 1, that is, only when accompanied by another "main storyline" chapter. The question he was asking was, should we start posting them separately like we would a normal chapter? Do you think there'd be enough interest? ;D The reason we've been posting them simultaneously with other chapters is because of the relative obscurity of the characters. While Susan is hardly obscure within the Discworld novels, she's still not a part of the "main" fandoms, especially since I don't think we post to any Discworld coms.... And Adric is certainly not one of the more written-about characters in Doctor Who fandom. Of course, if anyone has gotten this far, we figure that people have either been ignoring the interludes or have figured it out, but eh.
Also, sorry for the long wait on updates! We tend to be extremely busy/lazy when classes are in session. We once went five months without posting any chapters, then when summer hit we were getting one out a week. I've been throwing around the idea of posting a preview of the next Discworld chapter sometime soon, so we'll see. Finals are next week for both of us, though, I think, so it should pick up after that!

I apologise, I worded my answer very badly too! I meant, Yes, I think they should be posted as a separate set of chapters - even if they aren't considered to be "obscure", If people are following this, they can identify enough with the characters for them to be posted separately - i mean, they are somewhen / somewhere completely different!
And the lack of updates can be completely forgiven. I have about 5ish weeks until my version of finals, so its hectic. I've only been updating my fics when I've been too stressed to work so i write instead!
Looking forward to the possible rush of creativity!
