It'll make it go away faster, at least.

I wasn't sure, hence why I had her say "...that she was of aware of."
Will probably go back and correct it later.

Chew Winterfresh gum,or any other variety of spearmint.

But generally the Flowers' speech is marked by being in italics, not with regular quotation marks.

It just bugged me.

You Agent would not be the last Time Lady in the PPC; as far as I know, The Disentangler's still around.

Does anybody know any cold remedies?

Okay, thank you. I never took your comment that way and I'm definitely checking it out.

So I'm afraid I can't comment.

Don't take what I'm saying as trying to hint that the series isn't worth your time - it's really, really good. Just be forewarned that you may end up giving it up halfway through when it stops being really good, and there's really no satisfying conclusion there.

Can't be worse than Trigun. The ending seemed incredibly incomplete.

Is that they set up a collapsing situation that there's no escape from. It's great to watch the characters get more and more frantic as the situation closes in on them, and it's really well done (in the manga, anyways), but I'm really not satisfied with how they resolved the situation. And then they tried to set up a similar situation, and that was just awkward. That's about a hundred issues in, though, so there's lots of good watching before then.

Okay, thank you. Maybe I will check it out.

There's a fairly drastic change that happens about a hundred issues into the manga that disappointed me - I suppose the situation couldn't continue forever, but I think the incident could have been handled a lot better. They try to bounce things back to how they were before but it really doesn't work, I stopped reading not long after.

That said, it's really good up to that point - if you don't mind a series that doesn't really have an ending, it's a good read/watch.

"Yes, we're from Norway. 'The Infernal Trio' is just because we're..."
"A bunch of zarking idiots."
"Thanks, Krisp. Well, I guess people could practice saying our names, but they usually don't make that effort. They can't even write them properly. Well, most of the time, I mean."

I've heard alot about this anime and I'm thinking about watching it. From what I've heard, Light sounds like Rorschach mixed with the Joker and Misa sounds like Harley Quinn. However, I'm not really sure about it. I'm not as into anime as I used to be, despite the username. So, I was wondering if I could get anyone's opinions about it. Please, try to keep them spoiler free.

"'S all... sad, innit. To the fallen!" he added, holding his own drink up briefly before downing it.

Over on the other side of the room, Cassie and Nat added their voices to the shouting, Cassie's bottom lip wobbling slightly due to the emotions of the scene and the alcohol she'd drunk.

In yet another part of the room, Jessie raised her glass, but paused for a moment before drinking. "To absent friends," she murmured, and drained the glass.

Seth also left the room, not really in the mood for a crowd of people, and wandered down the corridor. He came across a young woman sitting against the wall, looking rather less than happy, and stopped. "Hey, are you okay?" He knelt down next to her. "You don't look too good." He smelled the alcohol on her breath, but decided not to mention it.

Meanwhile, back in the General Store, Luke had spotted the little argument at the bar and wandered over, a little tipsy himself. "Hey, man," he greeted the older Agent, dropping onto a stool. "What's up with you? Never seen you drinking like this before, an', an' you don't go arguing with people."

"It 'as, yeah. 'Ow 'ave ya been?" She couldn't help but grin widely on remembering the last time they'd met up with him at a party. "Plannin' ta stay sober this time, I 'ope?"

Cassie, on the other hand, turned a vivid shade of pink and gave him an equally sheepish smile back. "Hi," she mumbled, stirring her cocktail with the little umbrella that somebody had plopped into it.

Kelvin just shared a sympathetic look with the young man and nodded his greetings.

Leas started towards the bar. "I suppose Norwegian looks more difficult than some languages, but… sounds faintly Germanic."

He nodded at the names, then blinked. "The Infernal Trio… because your names are difficult to pronounce? I suppose, though I don't quite see it myself. One could practice, couldn't they?"

I'm thrilled for you! And possibly slightly jealous, but mostly overjoyed. Pretty shiny white-gold ring... *ponder* You're conversant with the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant then, I take it?

Seriously, I am so happy for you. For both things, the BA and the fiance (ooh, that rhymes). Congratulations. :D

Sounds like you're due one heck of a celebration party. ^____^

You could just go to an antiques shop and look up - the furs I found in an antiques shop in Lincoln were all hanging from the ceiling. Whether you'd find foxes easily I don't know (I think mine are stoats), but unless you're freaked out by wearing something that died decades ago, might be worth a look.

On both counts. *breaks out the celebratory cups of tea*

Congratulations!
