Comment/Review: That was a riot. I could really picture Hiei gluing himself to Kurama's side and whimpering every time Mary told him how much he loved her. And I'm not going to yell at you for using too much Japanese because I realized, long before I got to the AN's, that you were doing it to mock all those creeps who write half-English, half-Japanese(or something that looks like it) stories. I was thrilled to see you put at the top a comment about how many MS fic's start with the line 'Not a Mary-Sue!' That line really ruins it for the real writers who want to make OC's that aren't worthless. Everyone has their own reason for hating Mary-Sue's, and I'll share mine. MS's are half-complete stories. Pretty much every story I've ever written started out as a Mary-Sue or a Self-Insertion, but I always changed that before posting them. So, I say MS's aren't finished works because the authors don't take the time to refocus on the canon characters, which are what people read the fic's for in the first place. And I don't want to read something that's half-baked.
