Another excellent chapter , Mr. Doherty !

Lavender: Yes, me and my cat loved it so much that we didn't get to
               finish the already delayed Synopsis List Review !
Apollo: We love Emerald so much, please don't let him die !
Lavender: Though I don't know how could that be possible since 
               the next chapter would obviously climax with Serenity
               and Emeral at each other's throats.
Apollo: And the journal entries are totally marvelous. Our author 
           loves to recite them when no one's watching !

Hey ! Shut up cat !

Lavender: Anyway, congratulations on creating such an interesting
              character and superbly crafted fanfic. This fic has truly
              delighted our author and is using it currently as a target
              for her favorite pastime: making sequels of the fic in her
              own head !    

I say we steal the Heart of Destiny from ' Converging Series'
and give it to Emerald so he goes on a Serenity killing spree !   
Or have him...no...yes.....then we......

[ Delirious laughter ensues as a bespectacled woman laughs
maniacally.]

Apollo: As you can see she's already deep in her fantasies.
Lavender: Congratulations once again and hurry up with 100% 
               Woman !
