> > I've been avoiding someone telling Visionary point blank, but a couple of people have hinted at it carefully to avoid hurting feelings. The point was that Anna hasn't quite mastered the art of sparing someone's feelings yet. The only reason she hasn't told Visionary yet is that the topic hasn't come up.
>
> I think there's a brief comedy moment there as Anna is about to blurt the truth and gets tackled to the ground by Yuki or someone.

It would more likely involve either Liu Xi throwing something and cursing, or Al B Harper exploding something by accident at the right moment. Or a train horn, or someone turning on a loud TV...the list is endless.

- I really enjoy these charactery bits. (no text) · Rhiannon · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 12:49:19 pm EDT
  - There's not a lot else in these stories but charactery bits, I'm afraid. It's really just a series of vignettes. · HH · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 01:05:22 pm EDT
- I thought so far the party chapter was rather tame for Caph... · Hatman · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 11:40:34 am EDT
  - We haven't done the party chapter yet. Well, you haven't read it yet, but I've just posted it. · HH with an issue for CSFB!'s story · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 01:01:48 pm EDT
    - There are a few reasons I posted that story as a reply, rather than doing anything to distinguish it as an "in-continuity" story ... [Spoilers] · CrazySugarFreakBoy! · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 03:35:34 pm EDT

        Good analysis [Spoilers] · HH · Sat Mar 15, 2008 at 08:46:48 am EDT
      - Don't feel bad (if you do). It's not a major criticism or anything. Just a view. [Spoilers] · HH thinks it's good that a piece of work can stir up comment and controversy, as long as it doesn't crack the internet in half · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 06:30:59 pm EDT
    - The same argument people use to excuse the Caphans can be used to excuse Glitch · killer shrike · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 01:43:49 pm EDT
      - Glitch is usually written with more liberal and Earth-centric sensibilitiers though · HH · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 02:52:07 pm EDT
- Nice Banner... · Manga Shoggoth · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 06:23:38 am EDT

- To be fair, how many years has it been since the Juniors asked me anything, let alone permission? · Visionary · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 06:00:15 pm EDT
  - They once asked you stuff? · Hh · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 07:09:52 pm EDT
- Coming up next: Glitch explores Caphan culture in her own way. [Spoilers] · CrazySugarFreakBoy! · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 03:02:24 pm EDT
  - My first thought... [Spoilers] · Hatman · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 11:42:56 am EDT
  - Okay, that's another facet of Caphan life explored. Whether we like it or not. (no text) [Spoilers] · HH bans Rhainnon from reading this one · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 06:40:15 pm EDT
  - Yes... well.... (no text) · killer shrike · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 03:40:16 pm EDT
- That brings to mind a somewhat scary thought... · Anime Jason · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 02:00:58 pm EDT

- Why do I get the feeling that something bad's going to happen? · Rhiannon · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 12:32:15 pm EDT
  - General paranoia. · HH · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 07:02:40 pm EDT
    - And the fact that you're always planning something nasty. · Rhiannon · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 11:54:03 am EDT
      - Fear my next meeting with your teachers then. · HH, school governor · Sat Mar 15, 2008 at 08:43:02 am EDT

      - Quite a way. · HH · Thu Mar 13, 2008 at 06:46:46 pm EDT
- Having children is simpler when other people raise them. :) (no text) · CrazySugarFreakBoy! · Wed Mar 12, 2008 at 03:04:48 pm EDT

  - That's daily posting for you. Otherwise this stuff might seem interminable. (no text) · HH doesn't think this story would work in one large chunk. · Wed Mar 12, 2008 at 10:52:00 am EDT
- See, I *like* the occaisional sweet and happy chapter... · Visionary · Wed Mar 12, 2008 at 08:52:47 am EDT
  - But people always seem to suspect I'm setting things up for something appaling to happen. · HH · Wed Mar 12, 2008 at 10:05:01 am EDT

      - I resemble that remark. · HH · Wed Mar 12, 2008 at 03:14:46 pm EDT
- Ah. The Peter Principle at work... · Manga Shoggoth · Wed Mar 12, 2008 at 06:49:22 am EDT
  - Only if she's not competent, as opposed to not willing. "In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence." · HH lives with this principle every day · Wed Mar 12, 2008 at 07:49:23 am EDT

  - That explains why all the fornts have turned blue · The Hooded Hood wasn't responsible · Tue Mar 11, 2008 at 03:12:55 pm EDT
    - I like blue! · Anime Jason · Tue Mar 11, 2008 at 06:54:13 pm EDT
      - It's probably too powerful a colour for default on the main page, though. · HH recommends whites and greys · Tue Mar 11, 2008 at 07:07:03 pm EDT
        
        I'm not loving the blue for main page text either *n/t* · Hatman · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 11:39:11 am EDT

        That's easily changeable later, I just did that so I can tell the link text from visited link text easily. (no text) · Anime Jason · Fri Mar 14, 2008 at 03:34:29 pm EDT
        
        Proceed. I'm fond of colour #808090 as a "used link" shade. (no text) · HH · Sat Mar 15, 2008 at 08:41:35 am EDT

      - Only in Earth culture terms · HH · Tue Mar 11, 2008 at 01:32:41 pm EDT
        
        Think you mean "Western-European culture terms" ... · CrazySugarFreakBoy! · Tue Mar 11, 2008 at 06:59:26 pm EDT
        
        I'm sure I'd never mean "Western European". British, perhaps. · HH · Tue Mar 11, 2008 at 07:20:55 pm EDT
        
        My own cast seems to have a similar gender imbalance. :) (no text) · CrazySugarFreakBoy! · Tue Mar 11, 2008 at 09:43:01 pm EDT
