Before you ask, this fic was exceedingly well written in my
opinion.

	And now for the bad news....

	Just once... just _once_ I would like to see a story where the
Sainted Warrior Mousse make the most agonizing sacrifice of his life and
finally harden his heart enough to engage his one true love in all-out
combat for her hand in marriage in order to save her from the path those
hated Joketsuzoku have forced upon her.... 
	... and get his head handed to him for his trouble.

	I can respect what you were trying to get at with the revelation
at the end about Mousse's love not being as Inconceveably Pure as he
wanted to believe, but if Shampoo quietly accepts her fate and pursues him
in the next installment I will be violently ill (especially since it's
obvious that he's falling in love with Ukyo).

HTG (Why can't 'Poo _ever_ get a decent break in a dramatic 'fic?)
