a/n: Um, so it looks sort of wacky, on account of me fiddling around with different photoshoppy things. I was having fun with coloring.

Anyway, Jilly and Phi in slumber party mode, because more Phi/Jill interaction is on my list of things I would love to see happen in S,HWC. There's... a lot of things on that list. Lots of Circe confrontations and flowers being super important and trio cuddles and awesome team ups. Also, I've got lots of guesses as to the actual behind-the-scenes plot, but am not saying any of them in case they're wrong/right/ridiculous.

I kind of like the weird skin-shading on Phi, but it looks really odd on Jill. Ah well, I was just fooling around.

DO IT. Although, it's okay if you don't. Actually, I also want to see Frances talk to Phi. She's 'the girl' it seems. Johnny and Ripp and Tank all crushing/in love with her at some time or another.

Woohoo! I'm awesome! But I'm pretty sure my overall theories are probably really wrong. I obsess over certain little things and I'm not sure if you're going that same route. Like, I'm DETERMINED on the idea that Phi's flowers are going to be important and possibly lead her to cross paths with Vidcund. But, I don't really have much to back it all up.

A few things though that I have gut feelings about:

- One of Johnny's family members is probably going to die. My guess is Jenny.
- Johnny's going to be forced to leave
- Don has done something really terrible
- THE MILITARY IS WORKING ON A DEATHRAY THAT WILL WIPE OUT ALL THE ALIENS (i'm only sort of kidding)
- Johnny and Ripp will kiss somewhere in the story, but it probably won't be requited (this might be wishful thinking)

So um, yeah.

Heheh. That's an interesting thought. Frances could be all like, "What's she got that I don't have?" :P I think they sort of met at that party. Or, rather, she spoke to Tank, and Frances listened in.

There is something special about the snapdragons, and we'll see a little more about that soon. It might not be exactly like what you're thinking of, but they do have soothing/healing properties, just like in the game. (It was either that or make them a type of drug... since they take away your need and desire to eat and do anything else. That angle would work too.)

Some of those things are correct, more or less. Others have the right genereal idea, if not the specific details. A lot of those things are connected to the same part of the plot.

But I've said too much... :P

And... *sigh* Johnny and Ripp. More than anything, that part of the story challenges me. You know I've had different ideas about the exact nature of their relationship, and even more about where it would or could go. I should just grow a pair and make a call, but they have a scene that I must have rewritten about 346764 times, with differences that are very, very subtle.

Yeah, I'd love to see Frances sort of just wonder about Ophelia. She seems to have some sort of magnetism, maybe like Olive did, but without the murderous intent.

It's probably not what I'm thinking of at all, because in my mind they'd have to be a HUGE plot point and it doesn't seem likely. But I'm glad you went with the healing/soothing root instead of a drug thing. It suits Phi better.

Holy shit. I bet the death ray is for reals!

Heehee, I love that it's a conflicting thing for you. I still don't know if you should take it down a romantic sort of line myself (even though it'd be AWESOME). I still think at some point down the line Ripp will make some kind of move even if he doesn't mean it in a romantic way and more in a desperate Ripp way.

Either way, I'll be eating all that shit up. :D
