      I really do spend too much time here. If it wasn't for the speech I must give tomorrow, I would have already finished writing my Dashfire.

      Even if I do finish writing it tomorrow, I still need to edit and revise it which will take a day or two more.

    8. I am sad by the lack of Luna in this fic. But oh well. It was still a plenty good story.

      I certainly liked it.

    9. A bit of false advertising with the pic, but still an interesting beginning. Looking forward to what comes next.

    10. Yes, despite the lack of Luna I am liking what is going on so far. Do continue!

    11. Hmm. So we have an OC Diamond Dog, who happens to be a husky. A very well-groomed husky.

      I see what you did there.

      That aside, I have one critique. Huskies look wolfish, but they are not what most people think of when they think of "wolfhounds". I AM aware of the husky/malamute-like "Saarloos Wolfhound", but Irish Wolfhounds are what comes to the minds of most people when they hear "wolfhound" (just Google-image "wolfhound" and see which one is most common - the Irish will outnumber the Saarloos by at least 100 to 1, guaranteed!). Irish wolfhounds are tall, skinny grey dogs that look more like huge shaggy greyhounds than wolves. The two mental images just don't mesh. It's a little distracting... you might reconsider it when using it to describe the HUSKY character.

      - an ex vet tech who has met dozens of huskies, 3 Irish wolfhounds, and only ever heard of Saarloos wolfhounds.

    15. This smacks of DE raid! Emperor protect us!!!!

    16. i kinda want to see this one continued, it seems interesting.

    17. This is pretty good. I'm interested. The sword is a dead giveaway connection and I like that. Also it sorta feels like gilda might have a crush on Bowie. The only problem I had was certain sentence's seemed to run together and it was a little hard to catch things the first time. I had to reread a few things to fully grasp it, but at the same time I am an extremely fast reader so that could be fault on my part. I'm hoping luna is in the next chapter should this continue
