... Very odd. Now it's working again. My sincere apologies for the inconvenience :S Forum was straight-up redirecting me to the index page every time I pressed reply, no amount of link fiddling or reloading or restarting the browser seemed to help :|

This is basically what I meant to post in a new reply for good visibility: The confusion between the two breeds resulted from the use of the word "ovcharka" which to my knowledge (and/or in my experience having lived in a russian-speaking area) does not specifically distinguish between the different kinds of shepherd dogs - the only ones I've known by that description have in fact been German Shepherds.

Caucasian Shepherds are what German Shepherds ride into battle. Which are ridden by Dachshunds. Who are ridden by Hamsters. So they can go for the eyes.

I don't know what other kind you'd find wandering around on a space ship.

Also, I have this horrible image of Ea't playing with Drake's dog. On all fours, playing tug of war with his teeth. As is the dog.

I figured Ea't would be too busy trying to find new ways of turning the Black Queen into foe-shaped chunky bits.

Ea't is somehow a single-minded master of multitasking, in my mind. He can do both while singing bawdy pirate songs all the way.

Are you telling me that Ea't would not make time to play with a giant murder dog?
Heresy!

He's already worked out how to deal with her, he just likes to play with his food.

I was just trying to work "foe-shaped chunky bits" into a sentence. :D

This is a well known problem of this forum. Deleting the forum cookie and restarting the browser solves it always for me. This solution was also posted by some of the forum admins, but I can't find the exact thread right now.

@Scion Drakhar: Another outstanding chapter! At the end of the last one, the action intensified, and then you continued with the Gin arc. While I first was a bit puzzled about this, I really like it now. This was your way of decreasing the story telling speed and to let the reader calm down. Great! :)

I'm kind of just hoping he managed to get somewhere high and dry before the wonderful southern weather turned up.

Thanks folks. I'm alive and safe. I live north of Philly, which meant all I had to deal with was some gusts of wind. My heart goes out to everyone facing flooding and fires while so many of our politicians sit idle.

I have more in the works. It's just slow going this time of year. Not sure why. In any case, keep prodding. It does me a world of good. :)

Easy answer: Heat makes brain run slower. Harder to write.

Wait... Isn't the ceremonial prod the giant foam finger with the rocket on the end? And I thought we agreed not to use that after the 'incident'?

Oh hell, guys! And Triaxx, I have to remember to never drink anything, especially anything hot, when reading one of your posts. Hot coffee does not feel good involuntarily routed through nasal passages.

I didn't eat or drink anything when I read this, but I sure as hell laughed. Scion once said Triaxx2 was his favorite smartass, and this made him my favorite smartass as well. :D

Warning, posts may contain nasally harmful humor.

Glad I can amuse you.

I've been doing Youtube, but I'm trying to get back into the mood to do my own DiD again. It's just something that takes a lot of creativity and the summer saps my creativity pretty hard.
