* * * I don't really find it surprising, but everyone who's read this has missed my devilishly-sneaky reference to Chet Flash. Unless... no one has said anything? Anyways, here it is (in a fancy spoiler-thing just because they're fun ^_^): If you line up the first word of each paragraph of the story-within-a-story (what Micro is writing), you have:
Carabelle
Hurrying
Eyes
Thinking
Flipping
Laughing
Accepting
She
Hello
What
Under
Zealously
Heaving
Eager
Right
Entering
When read downwards, it becomes Chet Flash was here. Then, when Micro looks out the window, he sees "a fuzzy blur" that quickly jumps away.
So, aha, Chet Flash was here! ...that's genius! XDD How creative! |

Another Hero's Journey: Part Twoby precious_katuch14 Why is your part two above all the part threes?  (Not that you have any way of knowing, it just made me boggle.) Oh, I could so see someone doing that. “Pardon me, Evil Villain, but would you mind too terribly much if I slay you?” *snickerfits* I am a little confused that his mother didn’t notice people throwing rocks into her own house. [shadow=purple,left,300]Because. XD Nah, Melissa was too busy talking to her friends to notice, and besides, they didn't come like a shower of rocks - they came one at a time. And hey, she must be getting old and deaf XDDDDDD *brick'd to within an inch of her life*[/shadow] |

[shadow=purple,left,300]Chronicles of the Court Rogue: Jealousy by nimras23
I love how even though she is a talented protagonist who gets lots of attention (Best Protagonist much in the NT Awards? XD Second year to be nominated?), Mareian still has her human side, which you bring up every now and then to remind us that she's more than just the heroine.
Why do you insert such romantic implications and yet get them into the NT, unedited? XD Note to self: Do the same thing with later installments of AHJ XD
Rules of the House by micrody
This reminds me of two short stories I've written in the past - 'Four Pets and a Neopian Times Submission' and 'Just a Day Without Rules'. XD I guess it was the plot and the title, respectively, that got me.
Anyway, I love that absolutely ingenious reference to Chet Flash. The spoiler tags got the better of me. What the heck - curiosity killed the Kat. XD Going to the plot, it was a simple, yet well-written plot - AND WE DEMAND WAGES! xDDDDDD Kidding, Droplet. You don't see picket signs, do you?[/shadow]

CCR: Jealousy by Nimras*bug eyes* How DO you get away with stuff like that? Droplet must be a fan, and I can't blame her. That's THREE romantic innuendoes in a few short lines. You're my hero. The plot thickens in this episode! I'm really excited to see what happens. And as cool a villian as Jasagh was, I'm glad to see a new villain in the mix. I also really enjoy the hinting to the other CCR series. It was just enough to get old readers to think, "Oh, I remember that." At the same time, I don't think it would confuse new readers, instead I think it would add some clarity to Mareian's situation and background. Awww, I'm glad to be your hero Tashni.  The reminders are my attempt at juggling the sheer amount of backstory my characters have now, and to answer the most commonly asked questions people have emailed me with. "Is Mareian really *blank*?" You forgot Yuka's new series, Legend Seekers. ^_^ CCR-- A good part that furthered the plot.  That Jules is devious. XP Though I'm not sure, does it really matter that they have the real relics to perform the coronation? I'm sure you'll expand on that later. I liked Mareian's transformation when they left the castle, very nice. Can't wait till next week. Yes, having the real relics really does matter. Mostly just because of 'tradition' -- it matters a lot more to the Brightvaleians than to the Meridellians. Chronicles of the Court Rogue: Jealousy - Part Three by nimras23This was awesome, Nimras. The moment I opened the page, I was drawn into this, and then until the end, my thoughts hardly wavered. It was so smoothly written, with such perfect pace and perfect... everything. I can see why this series is so popular! I quite loved this part, and I seem to grow closer to your characters with each new part. They are quite well-rounded and very well-defined. I await the next part. I can hardly wait to see where this goes. Awww, I'm glad you like it! *beams* CCR: Jealousy: Part 3 by nimras23 Ooh, someone's not jealous, are they? *looks at the title* Oh, wait... Jeran? Jealous over Mareian? Never! *shifty eyes* Poor Jeran has a bit of a hard time with that in this one... [shadow=purple,left,300] Chronicles of the Court Rogue: Jealousy by nimras23I love how even though she is a talented protagonist who gets lots of attention (Best Protagonist much in the NT Awards? XD Second year to be nominated?), Mareian still has her human side, which you bring up every now and then to remind us that she's more than just the heroine. Why do you insert such romantic implications and yet get them into the NT, unedited? XD Note to self: Do the same thing with later installments of AHJ XD [/shadow] Mareian has her flaws. *grin* She's cynical, tends to view 'other' people as resources, and is greedy.  I actually tend to tone them down, for some reason. I'm not sure, but I think part of the reason I 'get away' with so much romance is because their romance isn't the point. It's just how my characters interact. If that makes any sense? Thank you so much for the reviews! |
