Apparently I hear that some authors are having brain hemorrhages
because people aren't telling them that their work has been read.
Silly, them author types!

WASHUU: [walk over] Oh! You've stopped bleeding!

ADAM: [grumbles] Waitaminute! I started out in prose how did...
	know what? Never mind.

WASHUU: Suit yourself.

==============================================================

   It is said Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
   The women of Ukyou's weren't exactly scorned, but their
fury was really close...
   "Mark another one," said Hiroshi.
   Daisuke went to the nearby chalkboard and put another mark
next to the words 'RANMA OFFENDING ALL THE GIRLS'.

   There were plenty of marks there.

==============================================================

ADAM: Heh, I'm starting to like Ranma.  Maybe I won't have to
	burn all you Ranma lovers on a crucifix.

WASHUU: [gasps] Did you say you *LIKE* Ranma?!

ADAM: Ummm... yeah.

[WASHUU slaps ADAM]

ADAM: What was that for?

WASHUU: You're turning normal. Stop that!

===========================================================

   "Foot into mouth, a-one more time," said Ukyou.
   "Husband pay for stupid mouth," snarled Shampoo.
   "He can have all as far as I'm concerned," huffed Akane.
   "He's so dead," said Nabiki dryly.
   "What's the foot-in-mouth tally so far?" asked Hiroshi.
   Daisuke went over to a chalkboard nearby.  "Um...
that'll be fourty."

======================== flashback ========================

ADAM: Heh.

- The (sur)Real World episode 7! -
         - coming soon! -

ADAM : Your homepage for the (s)RW is kinda out of date. At least,
	it was the last time I checked.

WASHUU: What would you do if it was ME on this show.

ADAM: It IS you on this show.

WASHUU: You know what I mean.

ADAM: Probably just have another hemorrhage.

WASHUU: [snaps fingers] Shucks, nothing special.

oh yeah, and:

ADAM: Awesome picture, I've been taking my stab at things like that
	recently as well.  My Inferno collage is quite impressive.

WASHUU: Except you got a picture of me that's 23.634 times bigger than
	everyone else.

ADAM: That's a detail, we don't deal with details here.

DOGBERT*: [reaches hand out and slaps ADAM across back of head] STOP
	SAYING THAT! IT MAKES NO SENSE!!!

ADAM: Oww.. what the hell? Why does he always make a cameo in my
	letters?!

WASHUU: Dimensional oversight.

EDNOTE: "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty."
                 - John Philpot Curran (1790)

ADAM: [in Malcolm McDowell voice] The Price of Freedom is Eternal
	Vigilance, Commander Blair.

WASHUU: You didn't think that was an original quote did you?

ADAM: Umm... [small] no.

BGC: SMILE
 Prelude
-2024-

He seemed to be wearing an odd frame of sorts, apparently a
basic powersuit.  It was composed of metal bar-like
structures, the 'muscles' of the suit, runnning parallel
around his body, connected by rings at the 'joint' areas. 
It only covered his shoulders and arms, ending in a neck
brace of sorts supporting his head.  There was also a
seperate framework of metal surrounding his left leg.

WASHUU: There's an extra 'n' in running there.

ADAM: I assume this means we're leaving 'Batman: The Animated Series'
	and we're moving into the comic book Batman?

Somehow, with all that metal on him, he managed to fit a
nice looking suit underneath.

WASHUU: Why not? Dress for success. I believe Sylia said that herself.

There was something about the man... something familiar.
Had she seen him before?  She was sure of it, but wasn't
sure _exactly_ where before.

WASHUU: Something along the lines of a cape and cowl perhaps?

ADAM: Nah, she probably owns stock in WayneTech.

The doctor gasped in surprise, which caused Sylia to look
back and forth between the two with much concern.

"You!  My God... I heard you were..."

The old man smirked.  "I am," he said with a wink.  "Come
on, let's get inside.  I have to talk to you about things."

ADAM: I'm not to familiar with anything outside of 'The Animated
	Series' and I've never seen Dr. Raven in BGC.  But are you
	trying to make a parallel between him and Alfred?

  "... faster than the others in the Curran Project..."

ADAM: Ah yes, the Curran Project, where they're making all sorts
	of delicious meals like Curran Chicken, Curran Beef...

WASHUU: That's Curr*Y*

ADAM: Oh..oops.. [beat] Anyway, I figure you should at least know that
I'm reading your fics, even if I don't have any constructive criticism
for you. (You wouldn't want it, my Grammar is the worst on the planet)
Don't have a hemorrhage or anything, and continue with these two fics,
I can't wait for the next part of either!

(p.s.: I'll be taking a shot at a BGC/BTAS fic soon, assuming time
permits and finishing Full Circle doesn't take me the rest of my
natural life.)
