(Here again. Procrastinating. What do you know. XD; )
145: That's actually an interesting idea, and one that I'd never have thought about myself. In the original story, when Yuan said "He's alive", he wasn't referring to Botta. It never occurred to me it could be read that way. xD; The story this snippet comes from is set in the canon world, but before the Remote Island Human Ranch, obviously, so Yuan's not referring to that. Anyway. I find your last aside funny, though, because I'm always interested in hearing how others picture the scenes I have written -- and in my mind, Yuan pitched forward and faceplanted on the carpet. XDD So... a bit different, that image.
147: I find this an intriguing idea, but I was afraid others might think it OOC. xD; This was set in... uh, semi-AU world? I don't know. What do you call it when it's the canon world, but Botta survived the Remote Island Human Ranch? (Well, *I* call it my headcanon, but that's hardly an appropriate description here!) So, originally, this was from a story set some years after the end of Symphonia. Of course, the beauty of these little snippets is that they can be interpreted however one wants to. Also, the quote here is slightly different from how it appeared in the story. Originally, Yuan said, "You're stoned", which (to me at least) seems to imply a whole lot more serious drug abuse than "just" smoking pot. Stories of substance abuse intrigue me, so I'm still kind of interested in working with the idea, but it would take so much research to get any of it right that I'm kind of intimidated. o_o;
