Oh! I guess it's my bad then. I didn't realize that LOL was obligatory.

Assuming Reilynn’s and mine chapters were the reason for this little discussion about the worth of mothers and housewives maybe I should rename “Nothing at all” into “A feminist’s nightmare”… Finally, it's at an end: the Epilogue of Someone to Watch Over Me has been posted. Perfect ending ! (Although this being an endless story would have been fine with me, too ) By the way, Shywriter, what’s your opinion on a challenge response that would probably change the story's rating to T? As in mentioning of violence? (I'm making things complicated )

Renaming your chapter is fine with me. I think I mentioned I kinda freaked at the title. By the way, Shywriter, what’s your opinion on a challenge response that would probably change the story's rating to T? As in mentioning of violence? (I'm making things complicated )I know you were not asking me but ... I think it was as long as it is under M. Although I think that we would need more information about this chapter before giving a definite answer. Is there smooching?

Ahm…how in the world did your brain make the connection from “mentioning of violence” to “smooching” ? Apart from that, I can’t tell yet, don’t know about the ending. (Assuming Shywriter agrees at all) It’s a possibility but then I thought of another story in the making to be my first smooching story…. (And somehow, so far, I find unsmooching stories so much easier to write... There seems to be something wrong with me )Renaming your chapter is fine with me. I think I mentioned I kinda freaked at the title. As for renaming my chapter… told you already that you are right and that I wasn’t thinking about the title, just picked this line from the nursery rhyme Shy provided (so maybe the blame is with the guy (?) who wrote the “nothing at all” ). So okay by me, if Shy wants to go through the trouble she can rename it into “Home, sweet home” or such…

By the way, Shywriter, what’s your opinion on a challenge response that would probably change the story's rating to T? As in mentioning of violence? (I'm making things complicated )You know, it might be time to shake that up. My original reason for having any sort of limitation on the rating was so that it might show up on all lists and searches, so we'd have the most people "available" reading and possibly deciding to chime in. Now that a bit of time has passed and anyone who might have wanted to see the stories probably has, I have no problem at all opening it up to whatever anyone wants to do! ...and would just mentioning violence be enough for a "T?" Hmm. But even if it is, bring it on! Let's shake things up a bit! ...of course, that would also allow the tentative smooching we've had so far turn in to Hot Monkey Love... Assuming Reilynn’s and mine chapters were the reason for this little discussion about the worth of mothers and housewives maybe I should rename “Nothing at all” into “A feminist’s nightmare”… Actually Shywriters comment ( should that be alleged comment at this point?) was the reason for the discussion. Renaming your chapter is fine with me. I think I mentioned I kinda freaked at the title. I take it, Mari, you weren't serious about changing the title... and I'm staying out of this one for the rest of Mother's Day Month (or, the annual "Don't Mess With Mama" festival) I still stand by my original goal of letting the author decide about their work... and heck, you have the added bonus of an ocean and at least some continent between you & American mothers, no matter which direction they chose as a starting point! Edited to say: Thank you! After that, my mind has been stuck on random, unrelated mooshy scenes that do nothing for the stories that need attending... maybe this will become an endless story after all? Good for Logan but bad for wrapping up other stuff...

See, I'm off pecking out my response to the first posts and Mari sneaks back in... Um, just a guess... but around here just about any topic, if it's brought up in the context of DA or M/L, leads to the concern about whether or not smooching will be involved... ;D heh... how about if I take the part of the line where you mention that, but add a bit more of the line? It would then become "This Silly Picture of ‘Home, Sweet Home’" (of course, I'd better run for my life; the Mothers will hunt me down again!)

Y'know Shywriter, you are very good at guessing. Last 2 have been spot on!! umm. that other stuff mean no CJ anytime soon?? That one was ALMOST at smooching

..and would just mentioning violence be enough for a "T?" Hmm. But even if it is, bring it on! Let's shake things up a bit! Good to hear! Started writing but could take a while... I don’t really understand the FFnet rating system. It’s stated that “some violence” would be ‘T’, “violence” ‘M’, but does the mentioning of a lot of violence count as violence per se or only as some violence…? Very confusing . (As a by-thought: I read somewhere that German ratings for films and such are much more sensible to violence, while in the US it’s more focused on sexual content, so, if that’s true, I’m even more confused ) (By the way, I'll be doing exactly the same thing this evening as your dagger-swinging smiley ;D) After that, my mind has been stuck on random, unrelated mooshy scenes that do nothing for the stories that need attending... Um, just a guess... but around here just about any topic, if it's brought up in the context of DA or M/L, leads to the concern about whether or not smooching will be involved... ;D With the minds of people here going to smooching no matter what you say (Reilynn ;D), “unrelated mooshy scenes” may be exactly what is wanted… (Although another chapter of “CJ” would be extremely welcome with me )

I know it's long over due... but Chapter 26 of Concurrent Jurisdiction is up for your consideration. Semi-smooches; future smooching implied... ;D

Just can’t get enough of that story… (Read: Pleeease, can we have a sequel? . Proper review in some days.. Thanks! Got some ideas... I can't get enough of Tony & Logan together, so there will certainly be more... I'm even leaning toward letting Tony have some time in S2 of Winter's Chill! Now, just finding the time to write... Sweet Logan Dreams!
