*is on page 16 of Sandry's Book* I'm reading three books at once. Well, technically, reading two books, re-reading one. *sigh*
Yeah, I hope Bekka's story is good to the end. It's in a different style and is so different that I dunno if it's gonna be ok. *frowns*

I'm still reading Sandry's Book, my thoughts so far:
-Don't like Niko
-Love Tris
-Love Daja
-Like Sandry
-Dunno about Briar
Is Dragon Book good?
Awww, that's so nice.

Niko is HIGH-lariouslter on I love him...but not quite the same way I love Briar.
The Dragon Book is really good, and I might look up some of the books written by the other guys who did parts of it.
Librarians are my befriends,athetic as that sounds

Niko is high what?
sorry....
I'm liking Briar a bit more, now...
Is it? That's good. Next time I'm near a big book store I'll look for it. or ask my mom to get it in the library...
It doesn't sound pathetic, it sounds smart. Librarians are smart, resourceful people.
Y'know who Neal reminds me of? Xander, from Buffy. in a strange, abstract way.
Oh, and, I read your Immortals ficlet, and I loved it.
(I said that on the t(w)een thread, but I'm not sure if you saw it... if you did, feel free to... i dunno... do something.

I appreciate that. I wrote it a while back when I wasn't very comfortable writing conversation (in case you hadn't noticed) I'm contemplating writing a companion piece that exists outside of Numair's head.
Really? Neal as Xander? I never would have thought. But then I didn't really watch Buffy. Neal actually kind of reminds me of my friend Joe/John/Husband (I would explain how my high school group's nicknames worked but it's just too complicated. His name is actually Paul.)

Ooh, well, tell me if you write it, because I'd love to read it.
I love Numair. I stumbled on a series of short stories in between the books and all four the books in Numair's perspective on fanfiction.net. It's good so far.
It's mostly the awkward jokes. Neal is more self-confident and sassy then Xander, but like I said, they have the same weird jokes.
To be honest, I've only seen season one and a bit of what I believe is near the last season, if not. The library doesn't have season two.
Paul? Okay then.
I don't know anyone like Neal... None of my friends are interesting.

Allrighty, I'll go look 'em up.
Oh! Loten. that's the name. She/he did the quartet from Numair's POV.

Yeah, she also did a shorter story of after ROTG.
She's really good. Did you look up Sonnet Lacewing?
Oh I can't remember who did it, but someone did from Emperor Mage in Numair's POV and a couple of in between stories. They were called Two Weeks in Carthak, Mitigating Circumstances, Taken, and something else I can' remember. Also in my faves.
