Hey Wing, interesting story. A few questions I am not sure you will 
answer since hey this story is not continuing:

1) How did a grown adult get malleted/nailed/spiked/staked (alphabetical)
to death by a sick, weak, near death kid, while said adult was carrying a 
re-enforced metal briefcase? All he had to do was bop him with it. 

2) How come said adult was carrying around, what is it called, heavy water?

3) For a sickly near death person, Gos sure can do a lot.

4) Does any one else use PIne and use the x% of message as a guide to 
when the story will end? I do and it really throws me off cause I see 
90% and think okay climax or some scene and then read endnotes. 
Todd's Careful Destiny leaves me wanting more of the story.
Thanks for sharing your time and story with us.
  
General comment (don't need to read since I feel I might be repeating 
this later on in other comments) : what is it with so many of the bards 
(hey cool I go to use the word bard and it is so descriptive ot those here) 
of this list writing such depressing fics, good fics, but still usually 
someone dies or there is a great amount of pain of some sort. This is 
going to be a running list folks, if you want me to stop running it 
every time I CC on a dramatic (typing depressing repeatedly is just, well 
depressing) story just complain and it will be dropped.

DMMH = Didn't make me hurt

These hurt (okay only some of them but I am too lazy to change it) :
Biles - the SM/Aruthorian tale that ends with the line of Usagi weeping 
like a beaten child

Wing - Strange Farewell : NIce descriptive ending scene that had to make 
me remember what I have heard of pictures of Hiroshima. Will Hiroshima 
always be connected to the A-bomb? DMMH, but the ending rended some part 
of me.

Sean Gaffney - Sour Times (I thought the name of the song was Sour 
Chimes, silly me). DMMH

Sorry forgot your names (blame my memory for mangling your titles) :

Smoke and Mirrors - this one really hurt

Desperate Measures - Lita becomes a prostitute and becomes broken by it, 
sorta. DMMH, bummed me out a little.

Ranma 2096 (sorta) - things are still up in the air so the resolve might 
be happy, or happier then 'A Winter's Tale' and 'Zannen'

Regret - was this on the FFML or RAAC? In a way all of the cast died.
DMMH, but saddening ending scene.

Anything by 'Oneshot' - okay these didn't hurt but characters are 
dropping like man-made unstable elements (why compare them to flies?)

Weird - Ranma is psycho, Kodachi is killed (no great lose), Shampoo 
commits suicide, and Akane is embarrassed and hurt. Wonder what happened 
to Ukyo. DMMH, but unusual.

Lies - Was posted a while ago but it fits. DMMH, but my eyes were dry 
from forgetting to blink while I was reading it.

Well that all I can remember for now. Has something affected the non-spam 
creative portion of this list? Has PW spiked all your food and water in 
an attempt to weaken the spirit of the list and sig.s so that he can take 
over the FFML? Or is BOFH more than just a nickname for WW? Hey congrats 
to all the writers, even those who I cannot remember, for writing fics 
that I like in spite of the feels they invoke of being in a full suit of 
lead armor while being dumped down the Mariana Trench, cause they are 
written just so (I am not using the word damn) well written.  Hey! Why are 
you reading this, didn't I say that this will probably be repeated and 
added to when the next deep, dark fic hits? Hmm, maybe I should change 
the title to spam instead of CC. Nah.
