And now I'm back home again, ready to deal with the coming new year (I hope).

Lot's to catch up on here... as if the cast wasn't big enough, we got some welcome returns just in time to join the slaughter. That hardly seems fair, although it was great to see them one last time (at least Banjooo returned to the happy fun pre-apocalypse days... it'll be interesting to see how that all plays out. So Elyse was the Celestian Madonna?

The strike against the Lair Legion was executed with a nice amount of building dread. Like others, I suspect that Xander still knows enough not to be there when it happens, so his turning up at that exact moment is likely a play in some greater scheme. Liked the discussion of his replacement there. Also liked Sorcy's disapproval over Jay getting himself shot.

As for the Mythlands, that was quite the peace conference. I suspect that Beth is up to something and didn't just take our mysterious adversary's deal, but regardless... you don't stab my little girl. She's lucky that whole existence seemed to fade into oblivion pretty quickly.

No idea where things are going from here...

Well, the waitress from Dunboggie cannot be equated with the PV poster of similar name. No would should take this as an implication that actual Sarah would ever fall for a slick line in artists convincing her that she should pose nude for them.

Oh, of course not. Perish the thought.

That grouping did work pretty well in my opinion. Fortunately they'll get one more outing.

Excellent!

Quote:

I realised on reading through the sexond draft that other people wouldn't have any idea what I was doing there with Yuki. Hence the footnote.

Yes, I admit that I would have remained clueless... but then it is my natural state.

    - 2000 km's? That's over three miles, isn't it? · HH · Sat Dec 31, 2016 at 03:02:46 pm EST
      - Pfft, it's a lot more than that! Luckily there was a plane involved. · Al B. Harper · Sat Dec 31, 2016 at 07:21:35 pm EST
        
        That does save a lot of arm-flapping. · HH · Sat Dec 31, 2016 at 07:42:57 pm EST
        
        I prefer to sit cross-legged and levitate when no planes are involved. Arm-flapping is so passe. · Al B. Harper · Sat Dec 31, 2016 at 07:48:29 pm EST
        
        Levitation is so 70s though. · HH · Sat Dec 31, 2016 at 07:58:32 pm EST
        
        It's now retro cool then. · Al B. Harper · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 12:20:35 am EST

        Uh no. More like Dr Strange levitating down the street retro cool. · Al B. Harper · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 07:16:58 am EST
        
        That is retro cool. · HH · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 02:45:18 pm EST

  - If only it was, but some of it seems to want to happen in additional chapters · HH · Fri Dec 30, 2016 at 09:56:32 am EST

        Your views were presented. [Spoilers] · HH · Sat Dec 31, 2016 at 07:49:34 pm EST
        
        Then I had my moment. [Spoilers] · Al B. Harper · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 01:19:42 am EST
        
        And what a moment it was. [Spoilers] · HH · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 05:42:08 pm EST
        
        My best work in the last year. [Spoilers] · Al B. Harper will aim to improve this year · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 07:24:38 pm EST
- That subplot WAS unexpected! · killer shrike · Thu Dec 29, 2016 at 10:20:39 pm EST
  - It was one I intended to use circa 2000 but by then the poster had vanished so I shifted to other emphases. · HH · Fri Dec 30, 2016 at 09:57:58 am EST
- Daddy? Just how bad is that fever you've been having? · Rhiannon · Wed Dec 28, 2016 at 07:50:26 pm EST
  - I just wrote a Banjooooo-centric chapter of this story. Does that answer your question? · HH · Thu Dec 29, 2016 at 10:42:16 am EST
- Quite a few surprise guest stars in this one. [Spoilers] · killer shrike · Wed Dec 28, 2016 at 05:16:49 pm EST

- I was the one who came up with that joke! · Anime Jason · Tue Dec 27, 2016 at 01:43:53 pm EST

        Nope. Not yet. · Anime Jason · Fri Dec 30, 2016 at 02:02:50 am EST
        
        Soon is relative · HH · Fri Dec 30, 2016 at 10:03:56 am EST
        
        I don't know, some relatives... · Anime Jason · Fri Dec 30, 2016 at 01:55:11 pm EST

        Two hours too late for that. · Anime Jason · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 02:07:27 am EST
        
        The past is prologue. · HH · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 12:43:27 pm EST
        
        Better than an appendix. · Anime Jason · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 05:37:32 pm EST
        
        I'm very much off appendices today. And footnotes. · HH · Sun Jan 01, 2017 at 06:47:08 pm EST
- I think with Chapter Five everyone of our travelers is accounted for. · killer shrike · Tue Dec 27, 2016 at 10:08:18 am EST
  - I thought so, until more cast applied to be included. · HH · Wed Dec 28, 2016 at 04:24:40 am EST
