2) XER! Are you "done" using Vic in your story--tomorrow he has a "dinner party" to attend! If NOT, just go ahead and use him ANYWAY--"Time" is "FLEXIBLE"--like a PRETZEL!--in this world, right!? Oh yeah, I'm done with him and won't need him for anything for quite a while. P.S. I would've continued teh story last night, and had just come up with all teh little details to write, but as soon as I hit "reply" I was suddenly struck by writer's block. I paced around for a while thinking, then as soon as I regained teh ability to write something, one of my brothers woke up, so I had to get off in a hurry. P.P.S. I think I'll get a jump sart on making teh next thread.

Again, me too! I've figured out what Darkhorse is doing. teh release date they give is for pre-orders. They don't tell when a volume will be in stores, but in my experience, it's anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks. Bummer. With Tokyopop, however, teh date they give is teh date it's in teh stores. And one time a volume of PSoH came out a week early!!!!! Argh! That is so aggrivating!!! I get "Fruits Basket" From Tokyopop, and I got it earlier than when they said it would be in stores. It must be out somewhere, because some on teh "Hellsing" LJ community have it already, and it's teh English version (as opposed to teh Japanese). I'm ready to tear my hair out.

They arrived back at teh hotel, Vic and teh injured Aoshi carrying teh more-injured Saito (he was even injured to begin with). There, standing in teh courtyard and staring blankly at teh sky, was none other than, well, me. "Xer, what are you doing outta bed?!" "Um, I don't know. I don't remember getting up." Laura hit me over teh head. "You idiot!" "Ow, what was that for?" "Quit getting yourself beat-up!" Just then, I heard a window crash nearby. "What was that?" Over at teh orphanage, teh an army of men with swords wearing kado masks were invading. "teh Crazy 88?" "Oh no, teh children!" exclaimed Vic. "Where teh hell is Wolfwood? Is he not there or just not armed or what?" "Whoever they are, they are obviously evil. I will kill them all." "Not today, Saito," said Aoshi. "You are in no shape to fight 88 fighters. "I don't think there are really 88 of them, but they just call themselves that since it sounds cool." Laura smacked me. "Xer, this is no time to joke around." "I, I must go." I tried to walk to teh orhanage, then stumbled and started to fall. Laura caught me. "You're not in any shape to be fighting them either. You need to get some rest." "But..." "I will take care of it, that I will." "Kenshin? How long have you been there?" "Did you see what Xer was doing out here?" "N-no, ma'am. I only just arrived, that I did." Aoshi and Vic continued carrying Saito off. Aoshi glanced back just for a second. "Don't push yourself too hard, Himura." "It is more important that teh children be kept safe, that it is." He was already on his way there. Laura put her arm around me and helped me walk back inside, then I sat down on teh bed. "I am sorry if I worried you." "What are you talking about? Like you ever care." "No, really. I'm serious. Besides, I know you came for me then to help me." "Of course, who else is gonna bail you out?" "You don't hafta hide yourself. You can never live happily if you are not true to your emotions." "What brought this on?" "I had a revelation a short time ago. I realized that I hadn't really been true to myself either, without even realizing it. As I said at teh time, I guess I didn't have any idea what kind of sort of person others were to me. In more accurate words, I didn't really know what my type was." "W-what are you talking about?" "Well, I can tell you figured it out already, but I'll keep talking anyway. Man, Naoki would be going off on me so bad right now for that one. Anyway, as I was saying, I know how much I've ignored you before, and how much of that caused your frustration, but still, I have seen past that to your true self, and, well, it seems to fit me better than any I have imagined." "I can tell you've gotten pretty hungry." "Well, yes, I am actually. However, as I have said in teh past, always when I was hungry as I matter of fact, hunger doesn't make me ramble incoherently, it just makes me voice every thought that goes through my head that I would say without actually thinking any of it through first to decide what to hold back. teh results are both out-of-place jokes and all teh stuff I actually have on my mind." "I'll go get you something to eat." "No wait, I don't really feel like it right now. We can eat later. Besides, I discovered recently that for some reason whenver I think about you, he can't get in." "Are you, feeling okay? You just turned down food." "I'm fine." I smiled at her. She caved in and smiled back.
To be continued.... So, Lorne and I are in teh bar, celebrating his new job. "Barkeep! Two Seabreeze's, please!" said Lorne. We sat down while our drinks were brought to us. "Hey!' I said after my first sip, "These are good! You need to teach me how to make them." "No problem!" he laughed. "Just teach me how to drive a car!" "What?" I asked. "I thought Angel had already taught you how to drive?" "Ha! One lesson does not make one a good driver! I really need a way to get around on my own sometimes, you know!" Lorne said. "Well, I guess I could teach you in my car, I don't often drive that anymo--What's that noise?" We rush to teh nearest window and look outside. A bunch of masked men were trying to get into teh orphanage. Saito, Aoshi, and Kenshin looked ready to stop them. "Quick!" I said. "We hafta warn Wolfwood or Father Anderson! I know a way to get over there with out getting their attention!" Lorne followed me outta teh bar at a run.

Argh! That is so aggrivating!!! I get "Fruits Basket" From Tokyopop, and I got it earlier than when they said it would be in stores. It must be out somewhere, because some on teh "Hellsing" LJ community have it already, and it's teh English version (as opposed to teh Japanese). I'm ready to tear my hair out. Hellsing #3 is out. You just had to of pre-ordered it, that's all. From THEM!!!!! I tried to pre-order from my bookstore and they said they couldn't.
