You totally do not, so don't even try to get out of it. And of course you can contribute illustrations as well, I have no problem with that. I will do us both a favor and refrain in that respect. ;-)

Specific requests? Not really. You know my preferences as far as characters and situations go, so I'm sure I'll be happy to read anything you come up with. Although if you feed my rabid inner Ryuuki fangirl I will be especially happy, I admit.

Mm . . . since I'll be able to download soon, it will probably be a waste for you. That being said, if you have the spare time and CDs, I hear that the earlier Saiunkoku torrents can get a bit rare and hard to find . . . well, please don't go to too much effort on my behalf. In any case I'm not getting my laptop until the end of December, so it might be good to have the eps on hand for marathoning. ;-D
