There are a number of Wedding Peach in-jokes. A "choudohin" is a set of gifts you give your daughter on the occasion of her marriage. I don't know if the Japanese have gone to bridal registries since, but this was sort of the predecessor for them; it was generally displayed at or before the wedding in order to impress the neighbors. "if the... reflects reality" is from Eric Hallstrom's "Ranma and Akane: A Love Story; Side Arc 3: Interconnections; Part A: Small Victories." "... and then I did" is from A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh. Noland is from Queen Zixi of Ix, by L. Frank Baum. I've made some references to others of his imaginary lands and his concept of a civilized country, too. I like '60s Western spy shows. ^_^ Shizune's magazine was HERO: The Journal of General Job Adjusting, Issue 4 (the special Halloween issue), included in the documentation for Sierra On-Line's Quest for Glory 4: Shadows of Darkness. "In a word, you said it" is from Rocky and Bullwinkle. "never to chase a woman much smarter than you are" is from An Oblique

XD So I tripped over Saki-chan during archive-diving, and through Saki-chan found YOU... ...and this is so wonderful and hilarious and joyously crackfed that... I just love it, and I love you for writing it. XD Iruka singing, Gai singing, wedding guests, Hanabi, the Aburame matriarch... XDDD My HERO. ♥
