I used Shir's Japanese name in the story due to my preference- I just think Shiruka sounds a bit more complete than Shir. Other than that, I hope I got everyone's character right. yay first fic, so please be brutal ^_^)

Well, excuse me while I defy all laws of logic and common sense and do it anyway.

Ahh... That was great. xD I loved Hugh's fascination, though it ended up backfiring in the end. You should definitely write more, Snorb.

lol, I really liked the "to be continued..." ending. XDDD Also, do you really find the Jetscooter like that? XD
Everything has a pattern. Something set. Even random things. They aren't random at all, its complex mathematics. The trick is to find the pattern. Then you can exploit it.

People think things have a certain end. Taxes. Work. Due dates don't really exist. Trust me. When you put a band of world scholars in the same room, and set them on talking about anything, the most interesting topics come up. The existence of negative time. The probability of "random occurrence". The government's involvement in the media. And falsified due dates. They aren't real, trust me....

Nice... very vivid imagery and excellent characterization. Especially on Shir and her smelling Laconia excuse for not going with the others.

I always thought Shir should have been able to join before you get the Jet Scooter. It's stupid that Piata has all those bridges around it and none of them connect to the rest of Motavia. Of course any well-written story that focuses around Rolf, Nei, and Shir certainly has my approval.

Perhaps I'm just a curmudgeon, but I stopped reading after "T_T"

It's about Shir? Maybe I'll give it another chance.
