Pine-Sol Power Clean Up!
Magical Moist Towelette?
Mr. Clean Kamen?
I'm just playing around with some ideas for the new Magical Girl
transformation, attack and, of �course, Mysterious Savior. (Hmmmm . . .
tiny plungers instead of roses?)
I bet I'm not the only one getting acute Super Mario Brothers flashbacks at this point ^_^'
@@I just had the urge to do a "Super Mario Brothers"/Utena fusion.
I'll go lie down now.

Since I'm de-lurking anyway:
Another thing entirely I've been expecting (dreading would be a better
word) has been certain authors of dark and twisted stories coming across a japanese film called Battle Royale (http://us.imdb.com/Title?0266308).
<SNIP>
@@I know OF the film. Since I haven't see it or read the book I
probably shouldn't comment . . . however the comments of people who
HAVE seen the film disturb me. (14 & 15 year olds think it's GREAT? Raving
about the wonderful suicide or 'grenade in the severed head'?) My understand is that the novel is supposed to be set in an Alternate Universe
Japane that WON WWII and it's supposed to be an antiwar/anti violence
novel, similar to "All Quiet on the Western Front". I could be wrong. Plus, I think all these "first person shooter" games have desensitized people to violence. (Rather like the Roman Games, that had to get ever more elaborate and violent as the crowds became jaded)
I could write a BR/Ranma or better BR/SM xover, but I assure you it would NOT end on a dark note. Frankly, if I want sensless violence I can just turn on the TV news.
Dammit! The good guys DO win and there ARE happy endings. Which is why i'll probably never be a commercial success as a writer. If I'D been writing "Silence of the Lambs" Hannibal would have 'eaten' a 12ga magnum slug at the end of the movie. (after an appropriate amount of earthly suffering or an assurance of devine retribution in the next life. Perhaps reincarnation as a lab-rat in a cancer research center)

btb >AY's way: any Sukeban Senshi updates? I'd really really like to find
out if I've guessed right about the light of hope the last time.
<SNIP>
@@I was actually working on revision of chapter 8 (I hard copied all the C&C from pre-readers) when the 'muse' insisted I finish "Lure the Tiger"
HOWEVER I have blocked out chapters 9 & 10. They need a LOT of tweaking,but Sukeban is still in the works. It's just very complicated, and slow to write. Sorry about the delay, but I'm chugging along.
thanks for remembering it. ^_*
