I'll send it to you tomorrow, then, after I write the epilogue-bit and
run it through a spell-checker--I take it that milo@winternet is still
your active address?

I've become expert in writing summaries of anime series and video games
for the benefit of people who've never seen them but want to read my
fanfic, but I admit it's a lot easier when I don't have to make the effort.
(I'd probably have more of a constant readership if I stuck with just one
or two series (or could be bothered to post stuff in a timely manner),
but my Muse is irritable enough as it is . . .)

Hmmm . . . You know, I think you're right--vampires, ghosts, and mindless
zombies or skeletons do show up in various anime, but no liches that I can
recall (even the nastier revived spirits in Mirage of Blaze don't quite
fit the bill), and there aren't many in whose mythos they'd fit very well.
Kaibutsu Oujo might conceivably have one, but I doubt I'll ever be able to
bring myself to watch enough of it to find out.

Either that, or he's sulking on the roof again. ;P
E. Liddell, who does know where the kitties are right no

fighting over the other two laps in the building, naturally.
