Concerning the possible plagarism, I'd *thought* I recognized these

fanfics

when I read them earlier today.

As found on the TASS Ranma Fanfic Archives:

"Subterranean Nerima Nightlife" by Jamie Seaman <a_wasteaway@yahoo.com>
"Demoness With the Green Eyes" by Wesley Orr <worr@prairienet.org>

As found on the Fanfiction.Net service:

"Subterranean Nerima Nightlife" by Emilio Michaelov

<duo_maxwell_w@yahoo.com>

"Demoness With the Green Eyes" by Emilio Michaelov

<duo_maxwell_w@yahoo.com>


Of these fanfics, both versions of each are identical.  Right down to the
disclaimers.
Could the author be the same in all cases?  Possible, I suppose... But
unlikely.
If I am incorrect, I sincerely apologize.


Well, it is possible. I have a number of net IDs myself, and so do any
number
of other people. For example, Girl Days is listed under two separate
identities,
even though they are both actually the same author. I only post my fics as
Tangent
or gtangent though, so as to avoid confusion. I have to agree that it seems
to be
unlikely, as the credited author's names have changed and not just the
addresses.
I'd want to see confirmation from <a wasteaway@yahoo.com > and
<worr@prairienet.org > before I put any confidence in Michaelov as being the
correct author of either. Either that, or a really good explanation.

Tangent

P.S.: No, I'm not telling anyone my name. Of course, I'm not hiding it
either.
If anyone is really curious, they can find my information posted under the
heading of Tangent in the membership registry of Sofaspud's Couch. If you
don't
feel like looking it up, I'm not going to tell you.
