Oh Procrastination! (more review replies)

Write? Me?

Well, I should. But... ugh... I so don't feel like it.

So, instead, I sat on my lazy butt all day and unlocked crud on Super Smash Bros Melee. Again. Because my old memory card got corrupted, so I've lost a LOT of data.

Yup.

Anyway.

OH! And I played some FF13 this morning. Then I got bored.

not that you care.

So... REVIEW REPLY TIME!!

because I completely forgot that I needed to reply to them...

Not that there's a lot.

Okay, reviews on the latest chapter first, then I'll go answer some more of KKBeckett's questions.

Psychicshipping (you better be reading my blog) the reason why she drew a picture of Riku dying instead of wherever he was, is because that's the image that's been burned ito her brain. And that was the image she needed to show everyone else to prove that this situation REALLY IS URGENT.

While, yes, having my Namine meet magik's Namine MIGHT solve that (MIGHT. And it's a very small might) it doens't entirely matter, because they aren't going to meet until about three months after Dead Inside is finished, exactly one day before book 5 starts. They can't meet any sooner because it would most likely involve my Riku being there, and he just- no- he can't do that.

Besides, that would ALSO require a ton of rewriting on mine and magik's part to make it work. Which neither of us feel like/necessarily need to do.

So... yeah.

I'm glad the rest of you liked the ending. It made me lau- oh hey!! HEEEYY!!! Aang did the thingy that Tenzin does later! (watching old Avatar right now). Aang formed a little pocket of air below him before he hit the ground so it wouldn't hurt, and Tenzin formed an air pocket below Korra so that when she fell-

yeah.

Sorry.

ONTO KKBECKETTS QUESTIONS!!!

Is Shad happy with the result of his actions?

Well, that depends on exactly how we're defining results, and WHICH actions we're talking about. Overall, I think he's pretty satisfied. Sora's having trouble thinking straight, which is good (and amusing) and Sora's control slipping = more fun for Shad. So, for the most part, he's pretty happy. Maybe not estatic, but at least content.

The darkness turning on Shad? Hmm... Idk if that's possible, but if it is, I could possibly see it happening. However, that might complicate things more than I need them to be complicated. But it's an interesting thought, and I will keep it in mind.

We all know it's in Sora's nature to be sympathetic to people who've recently hurt him if they give him enough reason to be. It's just how Sora is, even in my universe.

Zack died... uhm... four years, I think it was. Four years ago. It's like, permantly three in my head, even though it reasonably should be four if not five (have I mentioned this already? I feel like I have...) So why did Tifa JUST notice Aerith's dislike for rain? I don't know, it's not like that she spends much time in HB, so I guess she just keeps missing the rain. Or, if there has been rain, something bad has been going on (such as Sephiroth being there or something) and Aerith's discomfort goes unnoticed.

Shad's the trump evil at the moment? Well, I know who I need to try and top when Xehanort comes around. Because if Xehanort isn't my trump evil when he shows up, there is something seriously wrong with me.

As for the special chapter actually happening... erm... maybe. But it would be towards the end of Dead Inside (and thus not on Sora's birthday, which ruins most of it) Because all the crud that's going on to Sora right now just- just doesn't allow for him to be... level-headed. I guess. Idk what the word I'm looking for is.

Y'know, there's one thing I don't like about being an author. You suddenly become critical of every story you read/see (so, TV and movie plots are included). I mean, I'm sitting here watching Avatar, and I'm picking it to bits thinking "oh, they could've done that better". Sigh.

I'm rambling.

When's Kairi's birthday? I want to say sometime in February. That seems... expected, though. Like, there's something about Kairi that just screams "February!" and I hate doing what's expected or... stereotypical. That's it. I hate stereotypes. So, I'm not sure if it's just me being paranoid about stereotypes and I'm crazy or not. Maybe I just shouldn't worry about it.

February 5th. That's her birthday. actually now it's May 4th

Okay, I'm going to have to be done now.
