I iz back. Two-year-old was two, but not too terribly two, and the sun, sea and sand entertained and wore her her and allowed mom and dad to take regular breaks.

Ah yes thanks, that typo is now history.
I did NOT want to make Ryou a doormat, but neither did I want to make him tough in the traditional way. It led to the creation of an intriguing character, and one who can actually give Ghan the Whatever a run for his money.
I had too much fun playing with some of the culture clashes. Though in fact, if this were truly true to real life, there'd be so much culture clash that neither my characters nor the story would get anywhere very fast ^^; Our world and Darius's are so bloody far apart (and my own research is so severely limited by time...) I managed to put it out into the fic in acceptable doses and have fun with it too. Expect more culture clashes in the near future; now that Darius and Ryou are an item, and no longer stressed by the mechanics of mere survival, things are going to occasionally get convoluted for our poor castaway from the 21st

Ahem. Okay so the image of the horse falling and being all OMG WHEREISTHEFLOOR was hilarious. oh Ryou, you should do things like that (without thinking ahead at ALL) more often, it's hilarious. And then the discussion/argument, so full of lovely, lovely tension~
And then the sex, which was super hot, and very much summarized by this bit: That couldn't have lasted more than ten minutes. (...) Maybe it was more exact to say it'd lasted nearly three weeksOh *yeah ( ... )

Yeah, the chapter dealing with The Talk will be somewhat fraught...and hopefully funny too (most of the stuff I write turns out at least a bit funny, even the fairly dramatic stuff)

and then they had sex! Yay!
There was that age-thing that the Romans/Greeks do, which Ryou totally didn't notice.
hmm. Though the Japanese DO have the passive/active partner thing,as well as the age-directed sexing. Hmm.
I want moooore. more dammit!
And those poor soldiers Ryou left on the hilltop.

Yeah, those poor soldiers, who will eventually be grilled by Rand or Darius or whoever about their charge they were supposed to protect most carefully...maybe this is a good time to desert.

DAMN that man!
I kinda like Ryou as a Japanese. Though there IS some culture clash, just probbaly in different ways.
