Yeap, yeap.. A friend showed me the video where an onlooker captured Hermes bags and scarves floating around in the muddy water. Also some iPhones, cameras, blah-blah-blah.. Haha~ Too bad you didn't catch it!

One more exam to go and I'll be free! MWAHAHAHA~!
Really? You too? I'm like.. ever online on Facebook during exam period! XD And I normally draw more (and much better according to a friend of mine) whenever I'm supposed to be studying for exams! *le gasp* What a bad habit!

Mr. brown is awesome possum after all.. LOL! But Annoying Orange? Gawd, I can't stand it! XD

I know 'Qing Hua Ci'.. Were you inspired by the MV as well? Gorgeous MV, btw. LOL~ PWP can come out of ANYTHING. Even innocent little sheep plush toy or vegetables can stimulate the gutter ball cells in human brains.. *cough cough*

Ooo~ You're making me excited about the new story in progress. Is it the one with triad Sesshoumaru in it? The one illustrated in your Shanghai fanart? Can't wait to read it!!!

How's your job hunt going? I wish you 20% of my luck right now..The other 80%++, I'll give it to you after tomorrow's exam has ended!

Dern you flu buggies!! Get outta heah! Ya not welcome, messengeahs of Satan!

Sorry. When I get mad... the Massachusetts accent gets worse T.T We shall never hear the letter 'r' again, I fear.

Anywhostles, I'm glad you liked it. It's still not overly impressive, but better than the first one. I'm so bad with PS, it's laughable really. I think I growled at it... *begins foaming at the mouth*

The muse is a cruel mistress! Alas, we must answer the call of such a great and terrible urge without a thought, or risk the frying of our brains with only the flu buggies to witness our shame! *end soliloquy mode*

If you're a psycho, it's okay. You can join the rest of us when you come to terms with it. I suppose it would be sort of a HEADDESK moment if you read a story for months and months, waiting eagerly for updates, and they die at the end. I'd do it though > mwuahahahahahahahahaha!!!! Just kidding... I probably wouldn't. I'm too much of a chicken

You have? Hmmm... seems I'm not up on my MissTeak trivia. I must remedy the situation, and readest thine oneshots!... later. Busy -.- gah!

*Gives you saltines and ginger ale... my mommeh always said it works best*

~Siki

Nao eet ees oop!!! Or 'now it is up.' Whichever way you're comfortable.

Yes... I totally know I'm amazing *superhero stance*.... pfffffft, you lie. I'm too nerdeh!...

It's getting worse? You must be doing it wrong. You're supposed to get better, silly! And yes, that would make writing difficult. Those little flu buggies poking your brain with unpleasantly sharp objects? Ickk.

Sad endings? Psssssshhhh, I loves me some tragedy! It's horrible, I know, but I love it every now and then. Especially when it's fitting. Like everyone has Kagome become a demon just so she'll live forever with Sesshoumaru, but... really? Sometimes it feels like a cop out. If it's well-written and makes sense, I love it! But every now and then we just need someone to die. *sage nod* Or be otherwise uncomfortable.

Well I wuv you... get better now, dammit!

Oops, didn't mean to curse. Just slipped out, I s'pose.

*Slips you yummy-tasting cough drops like it's a drug deal*

~Siki

Honey, I love you but sometimes, I think you require a good slap, lmao! Your draft was not crappy at all, it was so beautiful & perfectly written, and I can't believe that is what YOU qualify as a DRAFT! LMao, that would be like my final, lmao, me and my crappy skills. Oh, I'm having fun with Polarity lately, lmao! I dont know, drabble are so nice once in a while, lmao. Oh I dont think blood stained is all that popular or well known, but thanks hun! *hugs* LMAO, well darn! I dont want you to die! Now I cannot dedicate my things to you?!!! ~Total side notes, but I've been working on Ephemeral Devotion again; that little thingy that was like 1000 words that I made you read a while back!

Oh hun, it doesn't matter that Happily Ever After is new, trust me. Anything you write is so powerfully loved (for good reasons), and trust me, it will win everything it was nominated for! Trust me, I'm not just saying that because I love you - although I do, lol. Well, maybe Blood Stained will get dark fic again, but I don't expect it to win Sesshomaru's portrayal. ~ I'm always surprise, when every round I'm nominated for that, lmao. I didnt' think I wrote Sesshomaru so in character, lol.

I'm sure your french would have been just fine! I keep telling you, you keep worrying too much! Ohhh well it almost doesnt surprise me that he is related to Celine Dion, she has like 14 brothers&Sisters, lol! It gives a lot of chances to have nieces & nephews! Lmao.

Ohhhh PINK & BLACK & WHITE! ZOMG. I love those colors as well. But see i dont really have a favorite color. I really like to go with the flow, lol. I'm strange.

Thank you hun! I would like to mentioned now that I'll be gone for the weekend. I haven't seen my other grandmother in nearly a year, (she lives pretty far from montreal, thus from toronto as well, lmao) And my aunt will be going near there this weekend, so I'm going to go with her, her husband, and my fiance, lol. We're leaving friday at 3.30, and coming back sunday during the afternoon. So if I do not reply this weeked, it is not because I do not love you.

Lol, Oh hun, you can't go to the end of a chapter so fast! Lmao just kidding. I kinda expected people to throw stones at me, and go OMG, if you dont update right now, we will tear you to pieces, lmao. I send the chapter to my beta today, hoping to get it before I leave friday, if not, I'll have to update sunday when I get back, lol.

Well, I know I dont have to speak japanese to go to japan, but I dont know I would feel so much more comfortable knowing that if something happens, I can talk to the people, lmao. I dont know its just me. Oh I know hand signs do everything, LMAO. Youre talking to a girl who decided to learn english and like a year later (not even) went and moved to the english part of Canada, and went to school there. HAND SIGNS SAVED MY LIFE, lmao. I saw my best friend while I was here, and my fiance was here, and hmm, for a while me and my friend were sitting with him, so we switched from french to english, and like she still has problem, so she was shy at first, but she talked it. And I felt, I dont know, like not used to it, I guess not comfortable, and I began speaking English, and this huge accent came out lmao! My fiance was laughing at me a bit. He's like every time youre around strangers, and people you dont know, you got your french accent coming out like CRAZZZZZY. lmao.

Oh hun, I love your Shanghai story! Its going to be so beautiful, well it already is! ISNT IT so hard and takes all your energy when you write a dark story? Sometimes I find it draining!

Lmao that is correct, Black HAIR! I will take some pictures for you. It'll have to be webcam, when I can make my self look decent, lmao. I found out the other day that my camera was broken I was so pissed, lol!

HUGGLES! CUDDLES! LOVVLES! KISSES!

Aaaaaaw. So I don't have to get wiolent with anybody? Darn. *puts back bazooka, pistol, hand grenades, war club, and crossbow - already loaded*
The things I do for you... hehe, just kidding I don't do squat and we both know it

Haha! THANK YOU. I always had a feeling about those smurfs. Like they all had meth labs in their basement or something. *shifty eyes* You liked the teletubbies? Oh dear. That is... a bit worrisome. I still love you and all, but... eeeeek.

YES! YesyesyesyesyesYES! Get better naooooooo! Not for the sake of my story... but because when you're sick *whispers* you're more susceptible to the flaaaaaames.
Heh heh. No, but really. I hope you get well soon! It's those little out-of-freaking-nowhere colds that make life really unpleasant

Good to hear that. Just for the record, I was prepared to throw a tantrum if you decided to leave me. Fortunately it seems as if that will not be necessary.

As always, I am your devoted slave!

*gives you monogrammed bath towels... the fluffy kind*

~Siki

UPDATE!!!: Okay, I got a case of chronic boredom at 1 a.m. so I decided to play around with the fanarts of yours that I colored by hand in Photoshop. So, I was wondering if you would mind me replacing the Happily Ever After one with a much better version. It's only my second time using Photoshop, but it's still much better than the one I put up already Let me know and I'll post it!

Keke, i learn how to make cheesecake from my mom and believe me, i never did it even once and i dont even like it anymore. Unbelievable and I used to love it. Urgh.

There's still a lot of nice food in Malaysia. XD I totally enjoy the pork fried intestine porridge. XD I like the fried stuff. i know a place that serve the best pei dan jok. Meng Court Dim Sum is the place. XD But i dunno if it still taste as good as last time. I think in Malaysia, you get all sort of food which you can get in other countries. Japanese, korean(Ooo i love korean food. Im always making kimchi with my family.), malay, chinese, indian, thailand and anything else. Easy to get it as well.

Keke, knowing cantonese allow you to watch HK drama. But HK drama these days is not as nice as last time.

I read somewhere which say Sesshoumaru's cloth has a mainland influence. I wonder what the mainland means? Do you know? XD But rumiko loves to draw everything related to china. Did you realize that? I think she likes China stuff. Wakakaka.

Ooo, Liu Jai series, Sess/Kag Version. It will be so romantic. I love to write sappy fiction. I always conjure up a movie of them in different situation and sometime i ended up writing a draft of it but then it was never finish because i was too lazy to even finish it up due to my english...im getting bad at it especially my grammar and my lack of vocabulary. Haiz...It feels kinda demoting sometimes.

I totally know that show where the scholar fell in love with the ghost. For oral presentation, i drew up a whole comic on the mahjong paper and do that as my oral presentation. I was that crazy last time. I can't imagine doing that again. *shivers*

Halloooo you!

Woah! Wishing you truckloads of luck in your job hunt! I hope you land something good very soon. *hugs* I know I couldn't wait to get a job after I graduated, but after working for a while, I wished I was back being a student. LOL...

I sooo tickled thinking that it'll probably take you shorter time to get to City Square in JB than it does to get to Tampines Mall!

I managed to squeeze a break from RL, so I hopped over to catch up with your fic!

Yeah, college students are poor.. That's why you should have grabbed some of the bags during the flood! I heard there were lots of them floating around that time.

Oooh! You just graduated? A belated congrats for you! Hope you'll find a job soon..Hehe.. I'm still schooling in SIM, pursuing my BAC degree. I'm in my second year now. And it's finals on Thursday and Friday!! (Don't ask me why I'm here. I need my escape from the texts! Gah~!)

LOL! Glad you enjoyed it. If you're amused by that one, you should listen to the 'Nobody - Wonder Girls' spoof from Mr. Brown as well!

Oh, believe me.. You're a wonderful writer. And your smut writing skill is great! (And that's an understatement..) I was blushing non-stop at how..creative..the acts was in the story. Hahaha~ I don't worship smut stories but I do appreciate artistically well-written ones. And I assure you, yours belong to that category.

I really hope you would be able to update on your fics soon! I need them to feed my mushy brain after the finals have ended! XD May the muse be with you, my dear awesome possum writer!

I will respond fully to your post, but first I would like to say WHAT?! Someone FLAMED my lovely MissTeak? WHERE?!?!?! *pulls bazooka out of thin air, muttering evilly to self* Why, I oughtta...

Ahem. My apologies.

To be honest, I've only seen one or two episodes of the show. Hehe, I might have found it a bit too... irritating? Yes, I do believe that's the appropriate word. Irritating. Sorry, but it was! *cowers in fear* Don't hurt mehh!

HA. And now I find myself remembering "What Is Love" by Haddway.

Anywhatzits. I really would like to see how things would go down if you really were to write smurfnugget, even casually somewhere in a chapter. I don't even know how that would come up.

I understand that you've written so much, and I appreciate the fact that you've given us all the gift of your beautiful writing, but it kinda sorta really stinks to hear it. *covers ears* I caaaan't heeeeaaaar youuu!!!

I'm so honored, I really am. My inner self is screaming, "SQUEE! She likes my story!" But I'm not quite so without dignity as to say it out loud, of course If there was any type of information in regards to Amerindian culture that you wanted, let me know. I'm not an expert *insert nonchalant shrug here* but I have crazy culturally-obsessed family members and the wonder of the interwebs to help me answer, no?

My only concern is that by putting in important rituals it's somehow... I don't know. Blasphemous? That's why I didn't put in the actual death chant during the funeral scene.

Well, now that I've gone and scribbled all over your pretty little wall... buh bye, for now! *gives you bacon and egg shaped Band-Aids*

~Siki

I wuff you soooooo much! I swear, you have no idea.

I promise, anything you write will be well-received. You could write 'smurfnugget' a thousand times on a page and it would be the best fic ever.
Hmm... smurf Inuyasha characters...
But seriously, that story is going to be incredible and I'm still giddy over the fact that you let me read it! *insert semi-controlled fangirl squeal here* I don't know how you come up with the things you do, but I really love how original your plotlines are!

Thank you so much for your reviews One of the reasons I decided to get more in-depth with the cultural aspect was that I wanted to show people an accurate portrayal, unlike those seen in the media. And I really didn't want to seem like I was exploiting my own culture for the sake of fanfiction.

We actually have a couple of big ritual scenes coming up and I'm so excited! I think one is actually in the next chapter *checks plot outline* and another in chapter 15. Woohoo!

iloveiloveyouiloveyou.

Hope to hear from you again soon!
I leave you with these words:
Stupid Yusha! >:|
