<snip discussion on C&C>

This is why I haven't bothered posting any of the fanfics I have bothered
to write.  What's the point when 9 out of 10 C & C you're going to get are
from people who are so anally retentive about things they can't accept what
you're writing cos you're not the series original creator.  Either that or
they're going to say "this sucks" just cos they feel like it.

<Keener teleports in suddenly, eyes ablaze with dark energy and drool
daintily covering his bishonen lips>

Keener: 9 out of 10? 9 OUT OF 10!?! NINE OUT OF TEN!?!?!?!?! Gimme
those! <teleports the Pages from Page's hand, wait for the rimshot and
then laughs manically!> They're mine! ALL MINE! Mwaahahahahahaha
<cough><wheeze><snort>

<Page bigsweats as three Mokonators look him up and down while the other
four look through his room, searching for underpants>

Keener: <gets ahold of himself, finishes and then looks to the concerned
viewers at home> Sorry, Jinna Syndrome. <as quickly as they came
(speedily enough to deppress most females <rimshot>) they are gone, with
only a confused, and now four boxer shorts poorer, Author and an even
more confused FFML in their wake.>

Voice Over: <Gary Owens, who, I've noticed, is getting a LOT of work
lately in fics> Ten responses? I'd give a chocolate covered Mokonator 
WITH Aragumi Bear sprinkles for ten responses, flames or no! Really
guys, if the person spends enough time reading your work and then writes
to you, even to say it sucks, don't worry. If he writes again, it means
you've got a satisfied reader, he just don' know it yet! ^_^
