... Daggonit RL-G!!!! I've READ the original, so I know where that came from! Still hilarious, to myself?

and a total "D'AWWW" moment to follow that up!

... you have UF-G and Remilia the Scarlet Devil on your side. To myself, you are overthinking this, Meiling. THEY can, and WILL make it happen, somehow!

have to admit I am surprised Remilia made it that long before devolving into the giggles. *Total 'gznerk' and laughter here*

oh... POOP. The Neuroi no longer stand a chance! They just don't know it yet!!!! *snickers*

Which, if one is to be a wisenheimer like I am... Mostly fired, (but not completely) is rather akin to Wesley being 'Not quite dead'? Still, I hope Remilia is right and that she and Flandre can create new cards, because the Neuroi... ahem... 'Aint dead yet'

this screams for a 'Fozzi=bear' woka woka woka joke, Rl-G...

CON SARND IT!!! DO NOT DO THAT TO MY POOR MONITOR!!!! *ROFL*

Owie, owie, owie... Flandre!!! Right. I might claim that was not fair, but... but... but... right.

... and that is the end of these comnents.
