**Yondan** , if the barbarian ancestor is having trouble coping with EZBoard, you’re welcome to email it to me and I’ll post it for you. Just in the interest of saving you from the ferocious virgins, you understand. ---

Okay, **Yondan** ’s story is up. And I agree with the barbarian ancestor, very nice it is too. ---

Thank you **Tavalla** , both for the help and the kind words. I liked your ending too, by the way, except that it felt more like the beginning of a whole new chapter making me want to read more. Here’s a [link to the story.](http://pub4.ezboard.com/fhomeawayfromhomefrm3.showMessage?topicID=4.topic) ---

Great job, **Yondan**. I loved the way you worked the ladybugs back in. Nice contrast—the ladybugs being born versus the dead ladybug in the earlier chapter. Life goes on, and all that. Excellent work. So… How did you like it, **Lorna**? (Hint, hint, nudge, nudge) ---

Thank you, **Ferrous**. Always a pleasure to be appreciated. **Tavalla, RaCha’ar,** what do you think? Is this puppy finished? ---

Group A’s or overall? Group A, well we’ve got two alternate ending so, unless **Jane D’oh** or **Tretiak** want to pitch in, stick a fork in us, we’re done. Overall, damn I hope not. There’s still three unfinished stories. ---

I just meant Group A’s. Wouldn’t presume to speak for the other groups. Also, we need to discuss a title. Whaddaya think? Any ideas? ---

Hey you guys. I am here. Yes, I am late with my story… :😊: It will come! I promise! I’ve done little bits of it, and I won’t make you wait much longer. I mean, part of the excitement is the suspense, right? ---

Ok, I don’t want to beat a decomposing horse or anything, but is anyone else from group A interested in submitting our story to _Teemings_? Whatever happens now, I want to makes sure you all know that ths story writing has been my best experience on the SDMB so far. I have sincerely enjoyed interacting with all of you, and I think a lot of really good, interesting, and entertaining writing was created. A very special thank you goes to RaCha’ar for initiating the thread, and for keeping us all going. Hip hip, hooray! Hip hip, hooray! Hip hip, hooray! ---

::toasts **RaCha’ar** with expensive champagne:: Yep, it’s been fun. And I’m definitely interested in sending A’s into Teemings. ---

Ok, I am at a certain point right now…where it doesn’t make sense to make any further explanation than: Things have come up (nothing horrible, no one died or anything) and it looks like at this moment I must ask **Ferrous** to step in and save the grace of our story. Thanks everyone…I can’t wait to see the end. ---

Aw, **Lorna** …you’re giving up?☹ Okay, I guess if it’s up to me, I’ll have to start thinking about this… ---

Well, just in case we’ve lost **bobkitty** (leaving us with only **Crunchy Frog** and myself), I am willing to do this story as a two person. I’ll post two more parts if you can post one more, \*\* Crunchy\*\*. Of course, if **bobkitty** should get this message, then this is all moot. But what does everyone think? I want to get this done! ---

I’m game if you are. I don’t check the boards nearly as often as I used to, so if you don’t hear from me a week after you post your part, drop me an e-mail. ---
