Heathens must die!
Actually, how's my driving? This character is quite a change from what I normally do, so I'd really appreciate any criticism that could help! Though any flamers will be bayoneted.
Comments screened, of course. What would a priest be without a confessional?

It is a lot of effort you don't really need to go through, either, and it's a lot of effort for other players, too. His accent is readable, but I, personally, have to squint and reread to make sure I'm reading properly.

Ah. That explains why Mello never commented. I had wondered. What exactly is so difficult to read with the dialect? Obviously, as I write it, I can't see problems with it. So any thing you could out as being extra difficult is appreciated. Because I would much prefer to tone down the dialect than just get rid of it all together. (I guess because I was exposed to/indoctrined with the English manga first, I just can't divorce the dialect from the character.)
I guess you could always read it in the original Japanese? Or watch the ovas. (they're supposed to be an almost exact translation. I can't really say, as I haven't watched all of them yet.) I really enjoy and recommend the series.
