Shila CHP3 (Suinnak) REVISED EDITION - A/N

So, I rewrote this chapter, because I hated the previous version. I'm moving the previous version to 'Thought wasps and Luna moths' so it'll still be up. Like a deleted scene :)

Not too much to say here! Except I like this version much better, it kinda sets up Macahty a lot more.

for the previous author's note, which pretty much says what I would normally say :)

thanks!

Shila CHP20 (Uitayok) - A/N

As you can imagine, I have a whole story's worth of things to say about this chapter. But, really, since I can't sit there next to you and give you a running commentary, I don't have that much! :D

I love love love the letters idea. I kinda, sorta, not really but almost got the idea from a fic i read which I can't remember the name of right now. But I'll remember eventually! :D

in fact, I got so caught up with the letters that it was really hard for me to go back to writing dialouge haha. :D

SO this chapter is pretty epic. it is of epic proportions anyway. hee hee.

*sigh*

hahah, Sera wanted Zuzu to play the Tsungi Horn.So, I got them all drunk. hee hee. :D

OH and the name Yuuchi (pronouced somewhat like 'yoo-ee-chee' but with the 'ee' barely noticible.) I asked her 'what would you name your first child' and she's like, 'boy = yuuchi!' :D

OH and Liluye's thing may be a bit unbelievable, but really think about it. Sokka and katara really would have made an impression on Chief arnook, not to mention Aang. And, since Yue is gone, he would need an heir (although, admittedly, he probably would have already picked one but whatever) SOOO Kat and SOk could put in a few words and suggest Lil. PLUS that would also pretty much clinch the loyalty of Nuuk, since before they werent *clearly* NWT.

so, yup :D

hehe, my favorite line in this: 'he stroked the beard he'd been growing out'.. OH YEAH BABY! bearded sokky! hahah :D 'I can't, it is permanently glued to my face!'
:D

OH YES and I used the songs Have you Ever Really Loved a Woman [bryan adams] and They live in you/he lives in you [the lion king] for helaku's encouters :D

OMG only the epilouge left! wow! I can't believe it! Don't worry, I'll save all the sappiness for the last A/N :D

OH and I am about a third of the way through the epilouge. I think I'm gonna go back and fix everything first though... rewrite the zutara chapter. :)

Uitayok Opened eyes

(I'm not going through and finding any others. If they're there, they're not new. They're translated in one of the previous A/Ns :))

"I found myself in a predicament scarily similar to Emma's [Emma, Jane Austen]
I wanted so much for this Mr. Elton to like this Harriet. I worked toward it. I was a bit less modest than Emma though; I suspected him of liking me. The thing was, this Mr. Elton and Harriet fit so very well together, it was plainly obvious they were made for each other. I grow happy just thinking about it. But how on earth could I get Mr. Elton's focus off of me and onto Harriet?
Although I could just be really vain in thinking he had any interest in me.

better safe than sorry, right?

Though he definitely didn't ignore my Harriet.

Luckily I didn't have to worry about it now. In fact, if they did get together now I would be worried. Much too young"

Shila CHP18 (Omayok) - A/N

SO wow. this chapter took me a very very very long time. yup. Sorry 'bout that, invisible readers! :)

I love it!

soooo, because I am utterly and completely OCD I have to have 20 chapters. 21 with the prolouge. I absolutely adore the numbers 20 and 21, so yup. 19 and 20 not so much... haha :D so there will be one more chap and then an epilouge!


I got a new computer that basically serves as a notebook, so hopefully I'll get a bit more done... haha :D in fact, the next chap is almost done! :D
