	As for the pork fetish, I thought it was pretty obvious.  Think
back to the Variahyah Cycle, okay?  Early on in that story, Kasumi said
that she would love to cook P-chan for dinner, but since he's Akane's
pet, she keeps it quiet.  Later on in the story, when she's gone all
Evil and Clean, she does try to cook him up (repeatedly), but fails.  So
now she has this subconsious unfulfilled desire to cook P-chan that she
sublimates by cooking pig products.

What I really want to know is: did Kasumi cook Mousse?!?  There are some
sentences that lead to this conclusion, anyway.  I enjoyed the original
Nameless Sage/Varaiyah Cycle and can't wait to see more of this sequel.

Heh.

Heheheheheheh.

HeheheHEHEHEHEMOOMOOHOOHOOOHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Ahem.

Just wait. :) I confidently predict that there will be at least one 
vigilante group formed during the run of this story, dedicated to 
tracking down and doing horrible nasty things to the author. ;>
