 Hmmm... with Ukyo saying this, a familiar expression involving cooking
 vessels and the absence of light comes to mind.... :-P

Hey... Shampoo-baka calls Akane-chan "violent girl"; all I get is 
"not-nice spatula girl."   So 'thphphpht' to you, too, Gary!  ^_^

But you're right... I suppose every damn one of us could benefit
from a little counseling.  I notice you guys didn't have me join the
fray in the office (though I *did* show up, I see)

I was almost going to compliment you and Meg for such a quick
response as to make us regular-speed slowpokes look even 
worse than we generally do in comparison -- such a great fic,
so fast and all that -- and then I read the note at the end.  So,
serendipity strikes again, ne?  Thanks for the answer, and a
cute story, too.

Ja ne!

Itsu mo,
Ucchan   ^_^
