My heart almost stopped for a second when Mari realised there was the box on the kitchen teble. Poor Mari, any more shocks like that and she'll never make it to school again! XD
And I loved the last line in Part 1. I just wanted to say that. I can completely see it happening.
*giggle* I can see that someone doesn't read my obscenely long and rambly authour's notes. ^_~ I suspect that at this point, she's been at kobujutsu for about six months or so--but you're right, it's absolutely impossible that she get her ichidan at this point. Though considering that I have absolutely no idea if kobujutsu has dan at all... well, who knows?
If I'd had a little forethought when I first started writing the Coping Methods, I'd have figured out a way to make her start going to the dojo earlier. Or I could have extended the story into university years, which would have made things very... difficult, for a variety of reasons. As it is, though, I really needed a conceivable excuse for him to offer her a new gi, and decided to say "Oh, heck with believability."
Besides, if I recall correctly, I had her at ikkyuu during the Roommates #15 story, so it's not actually that much of a stretch from ikkyuu to ichidan... just entirely and totally implausible that she actually got to ikkyuu. ^^;
Indeed, poor Mari--but she's tougher than that! (Besides, one hopes that Hiyoshi's not done shocking her... right? ^_~)
*chuckles* I can see it happening, too--all that tension, wound so tight, and her being ill... well, poor girl. *pats her* But while I'm sorry to have made your heart stop, I hope you still enjoyed it! ^^
You know... *laugh* I didn't think there would be, not for awhile... and then for some reason I sat down today and was like, "Whatever happened to that dojo story I started writing awhile ago...?"
