@kano-chan:You're definitely not late... !!! ^__^ I only got the prologue finished and edited properly like... yesterday, so I have no idea how you could be late >__>
Thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment! A lot of people are taking an interest in AiMikitty, and awesome that the both of them are your favourites. I'm sure you'd have a blast with the story. That's if I ever get around to writing it
Thank you~!
@junkie-chan:I wasn't doing it deliberately
You know how much I agonise over my writing... lol. Well, I finally got everything done yesterday. And again, I'm not all that fussed about the amount of comments I get (though of course I do like to receive comments, all writers do
). I'm more worried about stumbling into writer's block and thus disappointing readers with zero updates >.<
I hope you enjoy the prologue
@Ropy:Bring on the fangirling!
Rest assured, I'll be fangirling along with you... hehe.
I'm starting to think we can be a pretty dangerous convo
Do you mean 'combi'?
yeah, definitely. We seem to be on the same wavelength and feed off each other really well... so shutting up is a bit difficult. xD I'll try to cut down these responses so we don't have so much to attend to (I mean... on top of our growing PMs and everything..)
It's just I can't really picture Gaki-san with anyone but the lovely leader.
Same...
Ai-chan can be paired off with the others, but I can only imagine Gaki-san with our leader too. Her other pairings feel too sisterly to me.
KameShige needs love. Especially now, with Kame nearly graduating.
QFT. Which is why I'm kind of stuck between Boss Battles & the Turtle one as the one I'd like to do next...
LOL. No, you didn't really help
*pat pat*
The Broken Angels one - if I plan to drop it altogether, I'll still tell you about the story, so no worries. ^_____^
Thanks again for all your support! It's much appreciated...
@gracula:Yes, I have exactly 6 more days to complete- oh, another 46,000 words. *sigh* i guess i'll put it off for another year. Maybe you'll join me.
If you ever get around to completing one, you better share with us. ^___^
I'd be interested... but knowing myself, I'd probably have to pass. I have hardly any motivation to write as it is... I guess I'm much more of a reader
Good luck, and thank you!
@StephanyLee: 
Steph! Weren't expecting you to drop in, but thanks for your interest.
And i'm here to complain >.>
Of course you would, with the apparent lack of AiEri love that I've shown so far... but have no fear, I have something that I would like to dedicate to you sometime down the road...
You better give a hell of story here so i can read it beyond everything
Can't guarantee anything but I'll try!
And don't worry about your post, what matters is that you left a comment to acknowledge me by. Thank you! <3
(And this reminds me, I still have to begin catching up with your AiEri one-shots!
)
@Haruka:Thank you!
I hope you enjoy the prologue~
@baddie:It's YOU!
Lol, I'm ashamed to say I didn't notice that you'd come back
Welcome back!
Last time you said there were things you needed to deal with first before you could concentrate on your fics~ I hope you've been well, and that life isn't treating you so harshly. I'd also love to see you update your Fairy Tale fic.
But thanks for dropping by and leaving a comment; I'm happy to hear that you're intrigued by the story idea. It's what I'm aiming for, after all. Thanks!
@rokun: 
I must rejoice, for it's senpai rokun who has come visit this thread
Another person I wasn't expecting to show interest, considering how I've seen you respond to TakaGaki before... (or was it only Gaki? xD). Thank you, thank you, it means a lot!
As for the slackers...
Well, you guys have been around for AGES, haven't you? Can't expect you to hold the same level of enthusiasm and commitment you may have back then. For me, it's just really heart-warming to see that you've decided to stick around all this time, to guide and support all of us new ones.
Awww, thank you~ But rather than awesome, I've always seen myself as annoyingly long-winded .. but it's good to know that my efforts are appreciated. Arigato!
Well... it wasn't me who delurked Ropy, actually. It was gracula. Another writer you should definitely follow! <3
although I do know it's not completely a lurking problem anymore
I used to be a big K-pop fan back then, when Lee Hyori just started out and Se7en was still huge. But I've had a change of heart, and I'm never looking back
(massive headache trying to catch up with all the K-pop bands coming out >__>)
Yeah, it really isn't JUST a lurking problem, but it's still a lurking problem nonetheless. If I remember correctly, in SarangAi's last fic (which didn't finish too long ago), she held a little poll at the end and over 150 lurkers voted in it... so we DO have a lot of readers here, who HAVE accounts. Sarangai did a good job with her updating (which was incredibly fast and consistent), so she rightfully earned a lot of readers.
But it's a little disappointing not to see more explicit support for our writers here.
You are so organized in setting all this up. Are you going to put all the stories just in this thread with an even more organized ToC, or will there be a thread for each extended fic?
It's strange how organised I have to be on the net, as I'm disgustingly messy in real life
I was thinking to have everything in this one thread - I'd rather deal with just this one thread than have several out to look over. But I don't know... would it be better to have a thread for each fic?
That said, reading blogs and such recently I have to say I'm becoming at least slightly more open to TakaGaki.
You did not just say that... wow. Okay... I'm in with a chance now to impress rokun
Maybe you can get me to like them more again, even if the story sounds a bit... odd.
... odd? In a good or bad way?
YAY! That makes me determined to do a good job of this story. <3
Out of your other stories, I'd say what actually appeals to me the most is Boss Battles. But why do I think Aichan would appear to get her ass kicked very badly?
Looks like it's got to be Boss Battles next
Because Miki's the type who can trample anybody ('cept Yuko... and maybe Yossie xD). It's all in that attitude of hers.
Hmmm.. I think the poster for this
may be a little misleading. Once I have the first chapter up for this (and that will depend on how quickly I can get this first story done >.<), you'll see what I mean.
Damn husband keeping us from her recently. >_<
If she hadn't been whisked away by him in the first place, we could've witnessed a lot more AiMikitty I reckon, with Miki being leader & Ai-chan being subleader and everything *shakes fists*
Thanks for your lovely, thoughtful response, rokun. Honto ni!

I don't know if you guys can tell... but I'm feeling kind of burnt out right now
I've spent the last few days making necessary preparations and lots of shopping for my upcoming holiday. I'll be out of Australia from the beginning of December and return sometime halfway through Jan next year... I'll still try to update and respond when I can of course, but I'll probably be a bit more rushed (and absent xD) than usual.
But thanks for all the interest you guys have shown, it really does encourage me!
So next is the prologue. Damn, it's just a prologue. But you can view it as a bit of a chapter zero; it is still a chapter. An introductory one. A little more dramatic than I would have liked, but oh wells.
I feel that my writing here is rather heavy-handed... and perhaps not as accessible to English language learners? >.< I'm always worried that it will be hard for learners to grasp, and I know that we have a few handfuls of these learners here at JPH!P. I'll try to tone it down a little in the successive chapters, which should also help to speed up the updates.
Also,
feedback of any kind would be greatly appreciated. Discuss, speculate, critque... I'd love to know what you guys think and what I can do better.
Question: Do you prefer to have longer chapters but slower updates ... or shorter chapters but quicker updates?
Lastly...
please enjoy!
