"Glod, why?"
If it were not for the reference I JUST MADE in this email, I
would berate you for that. But of course, being a person of propriety I
would never do such a thing. -_^
"What? But you just got here, oneechan!" Amelia said, eyes wobbling.

Um, now. In the context of the series I guess I can't complain
about this...but this Amelia seems a bit TOO Skuld/Sailor Moon-esque than
I remember her being. My guess is that you're trying to bring out those
qualities in her, but when I'm reading these last few parts even though I
KNOW it's Amelia the image I'm getting is Skuld or Usagi...does that make
any sense? Take it as you will.
"Oneeeechaaaan!" Amelia whined. "You were always welcome! We just
want you to help the family out like a true Sailoon princess! For that is
the might and glory of our noble lineage..."

See where I'm going with this? ^_^;
technology and thaumatology...
From what I can remember, thaumatology is a distinctly Discworld
term; the more correct term for anything outside of the Disc paradigm
would be thaumaturgy. I might be wrong. In the face of overwhelming
opposition, I usually am. But I'm pretty certain on this one.
"Hello, nice people," I greeted, and stepped right over to Dayvid.
"How goes Project Omega?"
Cute. ;)
freshening up right now after the trip, which took all night. You remember
Lily, right?"
<sniffle> I know the reasons, but it would STILL be nice to see
Sylpheel (who's considered the strongest user of white magic to date) find
a role in here.

"Sailor Justice says :
SAILOON NEEDS YOU!

You can make a difference!

Excuse me while I try to find my insulin. o.o;
Naga made her first and I believe only comment of the day. "What'll
work? 'Come sacrifice yourself for a few cubic miles of land?'"
Heh.
"SAILOON POWAH! MAKE-UP!" she chanted, and a few seconds later (where DID
the music come from?) she turned on one toe, posed, and introduced herself.
"I am Sailor Justice, warrior of love and peace!" Amelia declared.
"And I'll happily help out my country!"
"I guess it could work," Reason said, the final nail in the coffin.
O-KAY! This has gone WAY too far...
"Reason's going to Darata tomorrow, so no news there... Drama has
already come out of the closet in Justivalero," Myth said, a bit of

Mr. Gabriev was stomping around in a small circle, mumbling something
about small birds and gravity. Mrs. Gabriev was baking cookies to relieve

Drama exploded with reality-bending force, driving the fighting spirit
and critical hit ratios of the people through the roof. Myth was already
Errrr. Interesting terminology...
Overall, not bad. I'm not sure I WANTED to see the apocalypse of
the Slayers universe so early on in its fanfiction run (which has been
woefully short) but its certainly being told with...flair.
