But so as not to derail this topic, even though I don't know when I'll be back on my desktop, uh…let's, um, start a TFS Cosplay club!  8) I call Don Watermeleon, I'll just buy a watermelon for my head and stand on a latter to be 7' tall.

After I write about two more chapters before we start following Lee Nader, I'm probably going to re-write the first 4 and make minor changes to 5, 6, and 7. They just don't fit in well with the rest of the book.

For a heads-up, here are some of the likely changes:

Replace Nazi terms (Sieg Heil, etc) with more Knight sayings
Replace "Our Great Benefactor" with "Our Heavenly Benefactor"
Have Izwzyzx be impaled with a sword than shot by a gun. Don Watermeleon never uses a gun
Make Don Watermeleon a lot, well, nicer
Completely re-do the way Deokishisu speaks. I shot myself in the foot having him talk that way the first 4 chapters, but couldn't do much about it until now.
Change the way the raid on Gammapedia went. The whole dressing up "romantically" was a bit weird.
And make Foobot black. I think he'd be the best black character in the whole story, so I want to give him a race change.  8)

Fear not, I'm always thinking up new ways to make TFS better. The only problem is, sometimes I keep thinking up new, super genius ideas that I feel I'll be re-doing the first 10 chapters forever. So I've finally started writing an author's guide which will detail the entire storyline so I'll know how everything works and be content with the story. And once my desktop comes back, expect Chapter 8 and a very…interesting new High Knight.  ;)

Aw shoot, I forgot to include Ernie again?! Silly me. :P

You may appear in the GCL arc though, I haven't completely decided who the Knight who say Meh's soldiers will be, but probably most of GCL will be affiliated with them.

Sweet Chapter, Don. I have to say, you really have a knack for writing.

Damn it Foobot, how do you always seem to accurately guess what's about to happen. I'll have to go and change Caecilius' death to something less expected. :P But to be quite honest, it's not always wise to assume you know what's going on. Re-read the chapter a few times, and you might notice 2 fairly hidden sub-plots I introduced, and if you read carefully enough, you might notice someone else in that room is a traitor too besides Marry. It's fairly hard to find though, much easier to spot from an author eyes. :P

And thank you, Phrawger. To honest, you're actually going to have a pretty big role in the next chapter. I'm so happy to start Lee Nader-based chapters now, if I had to type one more conversation in Knight dialect (If you haven't noticed, Knights talk weird) I'd just have to quit the story.  :o
