Am trying to incorporate a few more RL events according to sequence for the next few parts, and they seem to be arranging themselves in order, so let's see how that turns out.

Thanks for greenlighting mentions of Maki. Wasn't initially sure if it would work out, but the fits seems okay.

As for Sho, well, let's just say there's a reason for his "cluelessness". LOL.

Love your comments, and definitely working on more. RL is sweet as well, what with the sakumoto moments that trigger my writing juices. :)
