Okay, fair warning time again: starting on Friday 21 March, Peg and I are going on a vacation; we won't be back until 31 March. We've long promised our
friends Kat and Joe that we'd take them down to our timeshare in Orlando when Nina got old enough to appreciate Disney World, and that's what we're
doing this spring. It's going to be a bit of an adventure -- we're taking an Amtrak sleeper train down and back on an overnight run, which we've
never done before. And certainly not with a very bright, very genki nine-year-old in our party.
As usual, if I can find an Internet cafe or the like I will check in, but no promises.

Stephnie recently got the Tyrant mission, and he quite soundly kicked her to the curb. Anyone interested in getting a team together, and avenging Stephnie?

Tonight I will be on and I am going to save that dratted Fortune Teller, dangit! Anyone who cares to tag along (exemplared, sidekicked, or straight) is
welcome. Hit me up in the Legendary chat channel (@Sofaspud) or look for Alex Fury on Virtue.
I usually get online around 7 - 8 Pacific, and I'm not picky on when the run starts, so let me know if you want to join up at a specific time or whatever.

Hidden in the shadow of the temple bell's sheltering roof,
Belldandy and Keiichi watched as Megumi and Skuld spoke briefly
at the gate. Keiichi stood behind Belldandy with his arms wrapped
around her waist and his chin -- barely -- resting on her
shoulder; her hands were clasped over his, and she had inclined
her head slightly so that her temple rested against Keiichi's
cheek.
They were too far away to hear the discussion, nor would they
have made the effort to eavesdrop if they could, but even at this
distance they could see the vehemence and anger in Megumi's
expression. As Megumi stormed out the gate, Belldandy made a
wordless sound of concern, and Keiichi gave her the faintest
gentle squeeze in equally wordless reassurance.
The two watched in silence as Skuld slowly made her way back to
the house. When the door had shut behind her, Belldandy turned
in Keiichi's arms to face him and he relaxed his embrace to let
her; before she could speak, though, he leaned forward and
kissed her.
Drawing back, he looked deep into her eyes, which were filled
with fear and worry.
"I know what you're going to say," he said softly. "No."
"But..." she began.
Keiichi shook his head. "I'm not going to leave. I don't care
how dangerous this might get." He reached down and took her
hand in his; raising it to his lips, he kissed her knuckles and
then squeezed it gently. "Together, forever, remember? That
doesn't just mean you staying with me. It means *me* staying
with *you*, too." He kissed her hand again. "No matter what."
A tremulous smile slowly materialized on her lips as her eyes
began to shine. "Oh, Keiichi."
"Whither thou goest," he whispered, "there go I."

| Guyver Scanslations |

I'm not sure how many folks on this forum are fans of Bio-Booster Armor Guyver. I know Blade and Epsilon hang around, and they certainly are -- at least enough to incorporate it into their little self-insert apocalypse. 
There are existing scanslations of the manga by a group called Guyver Advocacy, but to be frank, they're not the best in the world -- inconsistent, fractured grammar, and I think they're working from the Chinese editions, so we're getting a secondhand product. Recently, I decided that I might be able to improve on their translation; I have most of the original Japanese-language edition, a vague knowledge of Japanese, and enough dictionaries and kanji guides to do someone serious injury in a fall. ^.^ So, using GA's scans as a base since I lack regular access to a scanner, I've deleted their text and substituted my own. Let me know if you guys like it enough to warrant posting more.
I've started from volule 10, chapter 60, right after the end of the 2005 TV anime and the debut of the Guyver Gigantic. I hope to get at least one chapter a month done, maybe one a week if I can find the time.
