Thanks for the comment!

It occurred to me that some people just can't be trusted. For a guy like Yuji, what would be more damaging than the one person he trusted intimately being the ultimate villain? He's definitely getting to be like Rick (of The Walking Dead fame). Plus, I wanted Yuji to be like his old self, when I first started writing. Memory loss and emotional content have been a constant, and this seemed to be a good way to tie it all together.

Okuden has been updated- enjoy!

Cool! Those are amazing! Thanks for sharing them!

I can't believe that voice acting is amateur work! That's incredible!

I've spent a lot of time brainstorming just how their meeting should go. I've got a couple versions I'm really thinking of, both very cool, hopefully.

True enough. The tricky part was explaining his sudden burst of power. When I re-read it, it almost seemed like the memory returning was an afterthought, or a gap filler, instead of the major event it should have been. But I like the result, so I'm not complaining.

That's a great idea, and you make a good point. If the Sound was established enough to be included in the Chunin exams, it probably didn't collapse outright. I'm looking very forward to reading that.

Not much new on my end. All the fun of being back to job hunting. I don't know why I kept trying to get into the Security business- it wasn't for me. No one takes you serious, you aren't allowed to take yourself or the job seriously, and there's no future in it. So, lesson learned, finally XD I was kind of like a moth bouncing off the same light for a while, though.

I'm looking very forward to telling the story of Ryofu and Chiyoko.

Yuji's power-up was something I wasn't sure about doing- it was almost too powerful for him, I think. But I wound up surprisingly happy with it. I wanted to get him back to his roots; kind of the way he was in my original Naruto fics.

How are things going with you?

I've just updated Okuden with a chapter that explains a lot and leads to a lot more. Enjoy!

Thanks for the praise, as always!

I'm having fun with this "impossible predicament" Yuji is in. Everybody he loves is held hostage and serving his enemy...that is a really fun concept to work with.

I've just updated Okuden. Enjoy!

Yeah, Annako is a creppy little thing, isn't she? I have to say, creating twisted characters like her is fun! I wish I could have gone a little farther with her and Azami. Suffice it to say, it wound up far more tame on paper than it was supposed to, lol.

Thank you, as always!

I've just updated Okuden. Enjoy!
