okay...

I still have not read the sequal to How far is Eden. I know I know, I'll get to it. HOWEVER...

I did read Love and Reproduction. You are the reason I dont write. Because I could NEVER accomplish the sort of sould twisting emotion that you do. I'm now thoroughly depressed, angry, sad, unsettled, and troubled after reading that. Not at all because of the subject matter or construction of the story, but because of the emotion that the story envokes. I could never do that. I am not into slash or incest at all, but from Knives it was almost understandable. I must say, that for Wolfwood's sake, hearing Knives say that he would be proud of his son for killing the animal broke my poor heart. In all honesty I felt as if he had died again.

For my own sanity...what happens next? Even if you dont ever plan on writing it, as the story teller, what do YOU think happened next? To Millie and to Vash?

Although it sounds wrong I am actually glad you felt all those emotions. It was what I was aiming for and what you should have felt ( ... )

Yes, i did enjoy it! Everything I said was in sincere compliment. You're right about Knives, I dont see him in any pairing at all. If I were in to slash, MAYBE Legato. Maybe. But other than that I think Vash is the only person he ever cared for ( ... )

Heh, I do have an idea for the Alex and Alexandria meetign again. But it would involve OC's and I don't think my writing would be up to it. I'm always very leery when it comes to writing OCs. Don't get me wrong, if you need an OC then you need an OC, but the purpose of fanfic, IMO, is to write about the characters in question. OC's often (though not always!) detract from the main characters, or even take over entirely. And as this would almost certainly be the case with Alex and Alexandria....

I'll think on the Milly and Wolfwood thing... I might have a couple but I'm not sure.

I may get back to you on that.

Well I personally am an OCer. I dont write them because of the whole Mary Sue stigma, and I dont read them...again because they tend to be VERY Sue-ish. But I have them for my own personal role plays, fantasies and musings. I think in your case, as long as you specify that it is a sequal to your story no one would mind. I certainly wouldnt, would LOVE to write it myself but...dont think I could do it the justice it deserves.

Seriously, it would make a wonderful story. Perhaps with them as young adults like in their 18's or 20's. Ideas and muses are biting. lol I've been nursing my own fanfic idea of perhaps Wolfwood's son. Dont think its terribly OC after all its a spinoff or a sequal to the anime. Its not as if I introduced my own gunslinger female dressed in a BLUE duster and called her Viki or something, and happens to be a plant and JUST as good as Vash, lol.

If I DO write it...would you perhaps be a creative consultant, or even a beta? (might not even happen mind you)
