Awkward!Michael and Rhiannon is the perfect pick-me-up after an unnecessarily long day at work! XD I lol-ed.

Aren't they? x3 I love how awkward they are. I'm happy that they were the perfect pick-me-up after an unnecessarily long day at work.

Next up, Mikhail and the linen closet. If you remember the biographies, I think you know where that's headed. >3

Poor blind guy being all awkward. But at least he gets the girl. In a very, very weird set of situations... adopted-sister-to-be. Huh.

kage_ankoku August 14 2008, 15:00:40 UTC

Yup. x3 And yes, a very weird set of situations indeed. ^^; But, by Michael's reasoning they'd never really thought of one another as siblings. Rhiannon lived with Michael and his parents only for a year before she disappeared until she was fourteen. And this happens only short time after her return.

Poor Mikhail and Anika. They're in for a surprise. Michael's adopted brother Jason, however, was expecting this. XD

I seem to have a fondness for weird situations. ^^

Hey, it's these situations that make awesome stories!

kage_ankoku August 14 2008, 15:09:45 UTC

That's true! It makes things all the more interesting. x3 I'm really looking forward to writing when the parents find out. Poor, poor Mikhail. XD

This is both adorable and hilarious! I think it's very nicely written and flows smoothly - I can definitely visualize the scene in my head while I'm reading. Great job! :)

kage_ankoku August 18 2008, 03:18:54 UTC

Aww, thanks. XD I'm glad that it flows smoothly; I've always had a bit of a problem with flow, so it's great that I managed to create a good one this time. ^^

And it is adorable and hilarious, isn't it. x3 I really love writing with these two.

I love the fact that Michael is blind and you write most of the story without visual perception on his part. I guess that's kind of challenging but adds something to the story. And the blind guy gets the girl <3

Hee! Thank you. <3 I'm really happy that you like that detail. And it was a challenge, so I'm glad you enjoyed how I tried to write most of the story without visual perception. Since it was written from Michael's perspective, I thought it would make sense to write it in the way he tends to perceive things.

And the blind guy gets the girl. xD Which surprised the both of them. I have to admit, they end up being quite the strange pairing; Rhiannon later develops schizophrenia, and he's blind. ^^

Thank you for the comment!
