I'm still chuckling. This is a sweet tale which answers one particular question I had in my mind while writing something else a few days ago. When I get it up (the piece I was writing, that is), you'll know why. Synchronicity. Thanks very much, Oddball!

I can only offer some useful advice here: check out our libraryand see the listing for further information about many of the stories here.

If he's more into physics than chemistry, he might be more into the exceptionless rules thing. Seeing as it's an actual hard science. *ducks for cover* I'm doing both Chemistry and Physics and I prefer Physics it's a lot more intresting. But just think of it Physics is essentially just maths, maths...

It took me some time to think about how I feel about the bigger picture. What it feels like is that the pieces of the puzzle that was Yamaku post-Lilly's departure were about to settle down. Then they got tossed into the air, with parts coming together in order of proximity—Hanako and Emi are believ...

I think of it in terms of how I can tell each girl's story. I find Rin the greatest challenge because even she can't tell her own story. We don't know anything much for sure because she is the most unreliable of unreliable narrators.

Y'know, that can of beer is to me the heart and soul of Akira Satou.

… you say to yourself, "I'vegottogodosomethingaboutit!" and proceed to reel off 50,000 words or so of fanfic.

Does she, or is it just that there doesn't seem to be any artwork where you can see her left ear once she's had a trim? I have no idea, but it's convenient for my deliberately simple theory choice. Actually to add to that, I'll go all the way and say she'd likely end up a great translator. She's le...

Once she cuts her hair, her HAs would be visible. But there's nothing there. Being loud is just her persona that she shows to the world, her facade, a coping or defense mechanism. However, she is still a ditz sometimes, as we see when she is working late with Mutou. People can be intelligent but st...

I think route difficulty is actually not just a matter of probability. To me, there are two main factors: 1) whether you can discern that there is some sort of path through the maze, and 2) whether the route is psychologically difficult. That's why I think of Lilly's as the easiest—you can see there...

You know what? I think Misha's partially deaf. The clues can be interpreted that way - she mishears Hisao, she speaks too loudly. She might be deaf in one ear, or have diminished hearing in both. Maybe she wears her hair like that to hide hearing aids. Perhaps it has stabilised with time, but it's a...

This slot used to host Hideaki's 'Origin' vignette, which later became the first part of his arc.

It's now reserved for future expansion.

I'll put a master index up when I'm done. Thanks for commenting anyway! Well, the master index is up now, at the top of this thread. Primitive navigation, though; be warned. Some readers find the shifting perspectives and multiple arcs disconcerting. One of my readers commented that opening multipl...

I like the Groundhog Day concept, and in particular the Hisao characterisation that goes with this version. It's a narrative that reels you in, and where it is inconsistent or odd or inexplicable, that problem is dwarfed by the whole metanarrative problem—who's doing this to them (well that'd be us,...

I actually had some ideas for why Shizune's mother (Mayoi Hakamichi née Satou, according to dev comments) would be the dying aunt and the Hakamichis WOULDN'T go visit her, while also explaining Hideaki's behavior (especially with Akira), and why Jigoro and Hiroyuki loathe each other so much. The pr...
