I freshened up the ST part of the site, added a wallpaper, and *now* all the links should take you somewhere. ^^

I like links that take me somewhere. It's much better than the alternative. :grin:

Oh! I got it now! :sweat:

Seriously, I thought she was referring to the library computer. The old Silver Platter library systems have a blue screen too, but they're in DOS (and it's just the background colour). I guess that proves I really am old and decrepit ...

No, just knowing he's a Mac fan too (if I remember properly), figuring he'd agree upon recommending one to the library in the comic. ^_~

Despite the dreaded blue screen of doom, I still cannot imagine myself typing out a whole thesis using a typewriter. Hehe. Nice update, Gypsy.

Thanks, Mave. Yeah, computers: you can't live with 'em and so on.

I did a double update because I missed the last one. Another one should go up tomorrow, too.

I rather like how its gone so far. It's been a long time between some chapters *shove* But other then that, its quite good. I look forward to seeing how this ends.

I updated on schedule ... I'm so proud of myself. ^^ I think I might start adding in commentary at the bottom of the page ... or maybe at chapter breaks, I haven't decided yet.

I'm fine with commentary, and though I've seen it both ways I'm inclined to say it is best when selective. Whenever you have something to say, really.

Regarding her not reading history... I like this aspect in the sense of it not being psychologically healthy (because it wouldn't be). But you'll have to watch out that this doesn't become an excuse to avoid anything that might be tricky. In terms of chaos theory, time has already been incredibly distorted or not at all, so it shouldn't matter.

Archived ... oh the shame of it all ... -_- Oh well, that's what I get for not updating on time. (Maybe I should just throw the whole scheduled updates out the window ... like, officially and not just in practice. :sweat: )

Anyhoo, there's a blast from the ... not too distant past there for you. I actually don't remember, but that's the first of a few cameos that I plan on sneaking in. Ink is working hard, but I miss her kicking around CAA.

Oh, and here's a link for all you fans of convenience.

If you don't want to try to keep up with an update schedule, I say don't bother. Just post here when you do update so that we know.

Page 47 worked pretty well. I found it funny, anyway. Meanwhile, page 48 is moving things forward in a predictable manner...

Predictable but cute. Every shojo manga should have at least one relatively predictable romance. :)

Yeah, there shouldn't be any question about the pairing in this manga ... especially since there's only been two (three, if you count Jennifer from the beginning) characters. Thanks for the input!

. . . Four if you count the landlady . . . and then there were the people at the art show in the past, though they didn't have names . . .

Sorry, I'm evil like that. Firstborn and all. I do love the comic ~ story, art, and all.

You certainly can't count out them. I am about 47% done with my Landlady/MustacheGuy fanfiction.

Really, though, bringing up the landlady made me chuckle. Thanks.

Hurray for shoujo romance! I trust Gypsy will serve it in style without the cheese or too much sap ;)

[quote="Mave"]Hurray for shoujo romance! I trust Gypsy will serve it in style without the cheese or too much sap ]

That's the plan ... but I think "too much sap" is a relative term. ^^; It is a love story, however a semi-light one (no soap opera antics, I promise - heck, there's not even going to be a good love triangle!) so I hope no one is holding their breath for mechs to drop out of the sky that Shawn will pilot and save the world or for Emma to admit that she's really a Star Princess and she's in the present time to find the lost members of the Sparkling Comet squad and fight monsters that pop up all over the globe.

Landlady/MoustacheGuy fan fiction ... Even as a facetious comment, I have no words, UC, I have no words.

That is definitely true. It is like another classic statement, "A slob is someone less organized than me. A neat-freak is someone more organized." But related to the topic, I am relatively confident that you'll do this well. So far this manga has avoided the pitfalls in shoujo that irritate me.

Phooey. Now I need to rewrite Chapter 11.
