 It's August, so I'd say I missed the deadline.

Eh, well, happens to the best of us. ^_^

 Like most blasts in manga and anime.

Hey, it was a season-ender blast. I think there's a law somewhere that states
'All season-ender explosions must defy all laws of physics and make the bad
guy proclaim it impossible.'

Just ask the Dragonball cast. ^_-

 Nice humor in your standard (for you), outstanding delivery.

Thank you very much! I'm trying, really I am...

 Of course.

Gotta get better, y'see. Simply wouldn't be proper otherwise!

 Hmm. Didn't expect him to go along quite so quietly. Wonder if he'll stay
 deaders.

He's just full of surprises.

(When I was writing Ch.10, I had the idea that Terra or ASK was going to take 
out
Kakkorotto, but then Arby came up and wanted to renegotiate his contract. We 
had
to let him go as gently as we could.)

Is Arby dead? Hoo-yeah, baby!!! One cannot get much deader than that.

Is he going to stay dead? I've checked the plot, and he's not in it anywhere 
in the
near future. Sorry.

<Yoda>But then again, always emotion is future.</Yoda> ^_^

 Nah. Drop the DR line. Not good. Maybe substitute some other contemporary
 figure.

Right. I'll work on that.

 Bit inconvient for Crystal Tokyo if that's the case. Now they'll have to be
 reincarnated again.

Eh, well, no big whoop. Skip a generation. Doesn't make that much of a 
difference.
3045 A.D. instead of 3000 A.D.

Destiny can be a tough one to fight off.

 Too bad.

Yeah, I know everyone was looking forward to have him dead, like in the 
teaser/
April Fools' joke, but I couldn't fit it in.

That's what revisions are for, my friends. ^_-

Some of my best ideas are last-minute addins.

 Wait until they've been married for a couple of years and 'death, fighting,
 and evil come back twice as bad as before since it'll all be directed at
 each other. :)

And how! ^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^

 Sailor Moon: Surrender?

Why be subject to some evil queen when you can do it all yourself!

 bad guys (Got to sneak an actual grammar comment in there somewhere)

 Methinks they'll pay for that at Ukkyo's hands at somepoint. At least,
 knowing you.

I hadn't thought of it, but the idea has merit. ^_^

 Of course.

Gotta have bugs. Simply wouldn't be proper otherwise!

ArbyFish(picks up a bug, takes out a salt shaker, salts a bug, pulls out a 
pair of
bread slices, puts the bug between them, then puts a leash around the whole 
deal
and takes the bug out for a walk): Come along, then! (adjusts his halo, 
gallops off)

 Amusing work, as always. Sorry I couldnt' be more helpful. Nice to have
 finally gotten to the next chapter of this amusing fic.

 D.B. Sommer

Glad to hear it!

Thank you. I'm glad to have whatever commentary and assistance I can get.

I'll do what I can to get it done as good and as quickly as I can, but I just 
got through
my first day of classes here, and it looks like it's not going to be one of 
those
big free time deals... But who'm I to complain? If education was easy, it 
wouldn't
be worth it!

C'est La Vie! ^_^
