azuriteOkay, so it's a little better. My hearing is somewhat shot, still, which sucks, since I listen to music while I'm online and working on fics. And, wanting to work on WDKY9 required me to go back and check for all the revisions I needed to make, so I'm logging them here, as I make them...
(3) - Revised a few sentences where the grammar was wrong; added a bit more description where Tea and Joey's tuition was concerned. Also revised the part where Tea was touring the house; created a mini blueprint of the top floor of the Kaiba mansion, including all the bedrooms. Noted important dates (Aug 8, Aug 16, Aug 24) and ages (Mokuba is 10 and 1 month by Chapter 4; this means during Duelist Kingdom and Battle City, he was 9 or so years old.) I worry about the overall ages of the characters; I'm not sure whether this holds true for all Japanese students, but since their school year differs from the "standard" one (Aug/Sept-Jun), I'm letting the fact that several charas. will be 19 by their 3rd year of HS.'
References made:
* Tea's one precious belonging is that of her mother's sapphire necklace
* Battle City is considered the point when Tea really got to know Mokuba; we're saying it occured in Summer (Jun-Jul)
* This means that Tea & Co. were in 2nd year HS by April of that same year; Duelist Kingdom had to be BEFORE THAT (or towards the end of the 1st year, in March or so).
(4) - Revised unclear pronoun usage ("he" to "Mokuba," etc.) and fixed a few other grammar mistakes.
--> I'm going to upload these fixes tomorrow. I want to make sure I didn't miss anything. Chapters 5-6 have the most edits; ones I found long before tonight, and they also include a lot of references. I'll probably try and revise the Official WDKY page with this Changelog, and maybe add a few (n)Faq to the Interview section about what the references might lead up to. :)
X_X I'm actually tired. How surprising! Well, rest is supposed to be good, so I'm going to type a bit more of WDKY9 and then jet to sleep.

But in my opinion, dry-heaving is just a bit worse because you can't actually get rid of anything. (Sorry for the graphic description in that sentence.) That's what I got to do yesterday and the night previous. I caught an awful little one-night flu bug and it decided to wreak havoc on my sleep, cause my entire body to be sore, and deliver rather uncomfortable pain to my abdomen. Blech.
Meds all around! Red pills and blue pills! Enter the matrix!!!
Date: 2004-02-11 10:56 pm (UTC)Okay, so the revisions are purely gramattical; it's the ones in 5-6 that are somewhat story related. There was a scene with some cookie dough... and then with a fortune cookie that I need to reference later on, so I have to fix those...
3-4 edits are now up on FFnet. ^^; You'd realllllly have to have a sharp eye to catch them, I think.
Hey, one-night ouchies are always better than the three-week kind... like mine. :P I hope we're all well and writing *hint hint* again soon!
