Aren't most men? *ducks*

Hey. Why else would you be such a Dorothy fan? ;)
Peygan and clownie trying to keep the guy a virgin on one side(or get Rel pregnant depending on how determined Rel nad Heero are), and Duo on the next looking for another thrashing. There's gonna be one interesting honeymoon in the future.
*giggles* At a roach-infested motel perchance? ;)

And I maintain that at almost 6,000 words, it's one of the longest chapters I've written for this fic. So, I resent the accusation I short-changed anyone. :P

But thank you for reading, Ryan, though do stay away from the Brit. He's a terrible influence....

Oh? I stopped watching tv about 3 years ago; do you remember which show it was? I like comedies, and it's hard to find good ones these days. Damn reality television. *grumbles*
aaawww. poor heero. i just wanna huuug him :(
Relena: I'd like to do something else to him, but he has to get his butt back here... Um, I mean... Not till the wedding night?
you have to do the next chapter now.
My, people get demanding....
that moment in the bathroom...yeah. that was so totally ep 1!
I actually watched ep 1 not that long ago, so his mad cackling is fairly fresh on the old noggin. ^___^

Thanks for reading!!!

Love,
Rose

Poor dispenser. Let's all have a moment of silence....
You'd think by this that Trowa and Paygen are in it together.
One definitely could get that impression...
If he is marrying her tomarrow, than what is one more night after all the time thry have waited so far? Duo is going to royally screw up an otherwise perfect situation, no doubt.
Not unlikely. Though probably not in the way most would imagine...
All I have to say/threaten you about Rose is that Heero had better get it on with Relena by the end of this fic, and be the first and only one to do so to her.
*giggles* First off, you should know me by now. There is only Heero for Rel and likewise. However, I never really planned on writing a 'getting it on' scene for the fic; it was rated PG-13 for a reason.

But then again, things sometimes just happen....
I was bent over laughing for several minutes straight while reading the part about Zechs and his dream. Espically since Heero thought of that very senario himself earlier in the night.
^_________^ Which was, of course, the point. Heero had the vision, and Zechs had the nightmare... It just seemed fun to do. :)
Next time I see one of those dispencers in a restroom I'll likely crack up on the spot and cause anyone else in the room to wonder what is wrong with me.
Well, it's kinda funny because I dreamed up that scene ages ago - I think I first told Loyce about it maybe 2 years back - right about this time of year. And when it came down to it, I didn't know if I'd be able to do it justice. I'm glad you enjoyed it, even if I've ruined bathroom condom machines for you forever. ;)
Thanks, Rose.
Eh heh heh... Insanity is the spice of life?
Fourtunately it seems Zechs is at least sympathetic to Heero's position, and it is also good that Zechs favors Heero over Trowa.
At least Zechs is on the right team! Huzzah! :D

Evil clowns and butlers.

*hugs* Thanks so much! :)

Love,
Rose

It's ACTUALLY one of the longest chapters I've written for this fic, you bum. SHEESH, there is NO PLEASING some people!!!
29 pages...with double line breaks??? Feh! Write damn thee!!!
You know, I really never had any intention of writing a lemon for this fic. You realize that, right? Is this the PURE Brit asking for smut?
You know I never mentioned a lemon or smut in anyway, I just implied that Heero and Relena had to get together, that does not require a graphic lemon last time I checked.

Funny how your mind immediately went there, no? Perv :-P
You caught me. This whole fic was conceived as a way to get back at you. Sense a conspiracy? There is one.
The whole fic? No. The long gaps between delays and the short but tantalisingly good chapters. Yes there is a conspriracy there. Evil, I say, Evil. :-P

Oooo updated chapter!

Whats funny about this new chapter to me is the fact that I just re-read everything you had written for this fic a couple weeks ago and was wondering when you'd get a chance to update ^^

Good timing :-P

While I fear sounding like an echo to your other replies, I have to say that I also loved the bathroom scean, and now find myself pittying the poor condom machine. *pats the machine* of course, it was sacrificed for a greater good, no? :wink:

Actually, I really liked the flashbacks you added to this chapter, they seemed to add a little more depth to the parts with Heero mussing, and kinda made me feel like he was actually coming to terms with some of his feelings.

Needless to say, I suppose, that I compleatly enjoyed the whole chapter ^^

Can't wait to see more, you never seem to dissapoint ^^

Wooh, my first reply on Blissful Ignorance. I hope I'm doing this correctly. There are so many confusing, pretty buttons on this site.

I'm so in love with this story. I can read it ten times and still find something to fall back on my ass and laugh at. Beautiful job, as always Rose. :salute:

Damn right Heero! Dont take no crap from a machine, especially from one inside a bathroom that probably can produce more anthrax spores than an anthrax making lab. :-? Anyway... I dont see why Heero is now having these sudden thoughts, even after she had willingly given herself to him in words that an idiot could understand. On a more humorous note.. I wonder how much cash Pagan and Trowa had spent trying to buy out every store, gas station and 24/7 shop in New Port City of condoms? :lol: That's some insane stuff if you ask me.. but, at least they gave us a chance to know what Heero would do for a condom. *_* On a more serious note, comparable to the other chapters of this lengthy fan fic, this one is probably one of the shortest, in a way lacking some of the detail of the last 24 chapters, but nonetheless a very entertaining chapter indeed. :salute:

Why do people keep complaining that this chapter is short? The last 6 chapters have the following stats:

Chapter 19 - 3,628 words
Chapter 20 - 3,772 words
Chapter 21 - 6,908 words
Chapter 22 - 3,720 words
Chapter 23 - 2,480 words
Chapter 24 - 3,620 words
Chapter 25 - 6,507 words

*sigh* I try, I really do....

To Beer-monster: POT!

Eden,

Good timing indeed! :)

*hugs* Thanks so much for the feedback. As for Yuy... Well, even a stubborn mule like him can occasionally figure a few things out...

I have a rough draft of chapter 26 done, I plan to spend some time tomorrow and Saturday editing it so I can post it this weekend. :)

Love,
Rose

Huzzah! And welcome to the site! :D

*laughs* I never really thought about it, but...yah. You did it right, though. :)

*hugs* Thanks! I like making people laugh.

Heero: Just not at my expense.
Rose: Stop sulking, condom conqueror. You won the battle.
Heero: *scowls* Condom conqueror. What happened to being the conqueror of Relena's bed?
Rose: -___-;; Men.

It's kind of like, he finally got some breathing space, and these are the thoughts that came to his mind. It's not anything in particular, just his general feelings, and reflections at a point where he finally has time to reflect.
I wonder how much cash Pagan and Trowa had spent trying to buy out every store, gas station and 24/7 shop in New Port City of condoms?
Good question. They'd better not try to charge it to the Preventer budget or even Relena's security account....

Trowa: :pale:

I will stick to my guns and say that this chapter isn't short by comparison, or really at all... Without author's notes, it's 5500 words, which is about 1/9th of the overall wordcount thus far. If it SEEMED short, then my apologies, I think it's just because of the action - it was written to portray a frantic sort of action, so that the parts with Heero were quick, run in, check, threaten someone, run out.

As for lacking detail, can you be more specific? If there were things I missed, then I'd like to be able to look for that going forward...

*hugs* Thanks for reading!!! :)

Love,
Rose
