Hm. :thinks about it for a second: Okay! Haha, thanks so much! I'm so glad you liked it. And what's this about requesting drabbles/artwork? I'm terrible at art. Would you draw something for me if I wrote something for you? How about it?

A very nice ficcy! Yay and welcome! I hope you'll be posting many more like this.

terravayne February 5 2009, 05:56:39 UTC

Thank you! I will certainly try my best to crank out a couple more before Quatre month is over. Thanks for reading!

Yesh, welcome to the comm and thankies for posting! I can totally picture Quatre's wealth being a form of torture to him when he sees poverty around him and can't really do anything about it. Wondy job! Doh, I have no Quatre avatar. *gives you Trowa instead*

Aww, thanks! I feel very welcome here and I just love the idea of a place where dark fics can congregate. Yeah, I was remembering this line in EW where Duo says about Heero that someday he's going to blame himself for there being no air in space. It applies just as fittingly to Quatre. Thank you for reading!

basilton February 5 2009, 07:44:36 UTC

Actually, the quote is about Quatre :)

Oh, man, Quatre loves to blame himself for everything if you let him. Sooner or later, he'll start saying that there's no air in space because he didn't work on it hard enough. -- Duo

Being pedantic ;),

I LOVE this one!! Superrrrr!!
You did a good job in that grocery scene--stands as the symbolic package of how humans were overcoated with hardened shells to survive. XD

Hurrah for Trowa!! Smart guy, hmm.

You putting this in FF.net??
Gonna put it in my faves list. *wink*

Thank you! Trowa is a pretty smart guy, isn't he? Yep, I'll be posting this on FFN under a new series. I already have "Slices of Life" which is this set of friendly, funny flashfics for my gw500 prompts. So as a companion, I'll be making a new one called "Slices of Me" for gw_dark prompts. Thanks for reading!

OMG it was amazing. I loved it. ^_____^ I like everything about it, I ... I just don't know what to say. I love stories like this with internal reflections and discussion conditions of their futuristic world. You don't see that too often, AC world tends to just be a setting and not an actual TIME.

O__O Hope that makes sense. (hugs)

terravayne February 5 2009, 16:16:35 UTC

That makes perfect sense. It's tough to remember that they're not just in the colonies, they're also in the FUTURE. And that while some things are different, others stay the same. Thanks so much for reading!
