I was inspired by Springie's latest pic to write a fic about it. Here's the pic: And here's the fic! Comrades in Arms

I must say that this is a wonderful fic! I highly recommend it.

This is great Hino. I love the way you can come up with stories in the spur of the moment.

Wow, Hino, this is excellent -the tension, the emotions, the undercurrents... I love it!

I was so thrilled that Hino wrote a fic to go wuth my piccie...and it is such a beautifully written fic! Bravo, Hino!!!

Great story Hinotori! I love how you portrayed everybody

I really enjoyed this ficcie... I"m waiting for the sequel. Pat on the back Hino!

A wonderful story based on a great drawing. Well done,Hinotori. I am looking forward to a sequel, if you have one in mind.

Sequel, sequel? Will that goi deeper into Jun & Joe's relationship? Have to say, Springie's pic is inspiring indeed!

Thank you, girls!! I'm glad you all enjoyed it. And thanks again to Springie for being such an inspiration!

GET A ROOM SO I CAN BURN IT! Touchy little peasants...

Hino, add me to the list of people who'd like to see a sequel! Those closing lines are just so good...

I agree the last part was the best

*swoon* I am *so* glad I drew that picture...Hino, you write a great Joe/Jun pairing...and a jealous Eagle? What more could a Swannie ask for?

Perhaps for the Eagle to DO something about his jealousy.

Ebony clears her throat and frowns in Hinos direction... Sequel??? I see nothing about a sequel in this post...

I think Hino is way to busy writing other stories to have time to write a sequel. At least that is what I understood from a conversation I heard.

We need TJ here to Hino for the sequel! Oh, the magic whip!

Cloud stands between the whip and her Eagle Friend, and then wonders if she is doing the right thing.

Actually, I have been helping Hino with a different fic. But she definitely is writing, so no need for !!

Ah, then finish whatever you are currently writing, Hino -I look forward to reading it! (do we get any hints?)

TJ, Are you two collaborating on another fic with the same genre like "All Shook Up" that has definitely always made me cracking up like crazy? Perhaps this time instead of Elvis or Partridge family, you can use more contemporary bands like "Barenaked Ladies" (just encountered this band's name while watching the rerun of "The Apprentice"season 5 in cables). Just thinking that the band's name will definitely match the Condor's taste. , and I actually like the band's music, especially their song "Pinch Me" (another source of inspiration, maybe, )

Originally posted by saturn Are you two collaborating on another fic with the same genre like "All Shook Up" that has definitely always made me cracking up like crazy?

No, not a collaboration, just bouncing off plot ideas. I do this with lots of people. In fact, many of my best (and silliest) plot ideas came from IMing with Springie!

Well, we used Elvis because it was Vegas, and the Partridge Family because I was trying to think of something very 70s where the team could easily be mistaken for the band. Coming from Toronto, I am a big Barenaked Ladies fan. I have been enjoying their music for 16 years... has it been that long? I too appreciate their sense of humor. If you ever get the chance to see them in concert you must go. Their live shows have a completely different flavor and are lots of fun! And besides which, they have a song about ninjas on their latest album...

So I am hoping right now that you will spend more time IMing with Springie to bring out all the silly plot ideas.It has been a while since I have read humorous fics.Even my smutty mind needs to rest sometime and give way to the crazy side of me, Anyway, still eagerly waiting for the third part of your series, TJ! and Hino, keep writing!Looking forward to your next story.

Hino has been doing well with her writing. she's got a great style!!!

I have a few silly fics already published, if you're interested, Saturn. I think the worst is the Austin Powers fic (International Birds of Mystery) for which Springie did a groovey poster... Unfortunately, the On the Run series doesn't get silly.... it stays serious and dramatic.... well, at least, I *TRY*...

My Christmas one was my silliest... I mean Joe and the female Katse... Smacks forehead...what was I thinking...

Oh, I have actually read the Austion Powers fic before, and I love it!!!I am also a fan of the Austin Powers movie and reading your fic has definitely had me going "Groovy Baby" for a while, Speaking about The Austion Powers movie, just want to share some trivia with you. Do you know that the movie's second series title "The Spy Who Shagged Me?" was considered too crude for the Asian market, that some Asian countries actually change the title? In Singapore, the title was changed to "The Spy Who Shioked Me?" (basically means "The Spy Who Was Good To Me"). In Malaysia, the title was changed to " The Spy Who Loved Women", However, in my country, the title stayed the same, I guess it was mostly because the officials in my country didn't even realise or understand the meaning of "Shag", For "The On the Run" Series, I beg you to keep the serious tone, I can't really imagine the stories to go into humorous tone anyway,

LOL, there isn't really a humorous tone in the On the Run series. No more than there has been so far, anyhow. ITA about the Austin Powers title. I think Mike Myers said once that he was shocked when 'Goldmember' was approved as a film title. In Canada I know the 'Fat Bastard' action figure was renamed 'Fat Guy'. Well, if you've read that one you've seen me at my silliest, although there are others out there. Exercise in Futility was one of my earlier BOTP fics, and I tried so hard to point out every silly inconsistency about the show... and then I did it again in other fics, like Prom Night.

I have read and enjoyed "Prom Night", you did a very good job, and Springie has drawn very nice pics for the fic too. You two definitely work well together.

My best fics are the ones where Springie makes piccies...

All of your fics are great, baybee!

The silliest fic I've written so far was Hark! The Kagaku Ninjatai Sing. That was my first fic, and the only reason it was written was because a certain Swan and me for the Christmas Challenge last year. I don't really tout that one, just because when I go back and read it now I kinda do the whole "What was I thinking??" things.... But you gotta start somewhere, right?? Actually, I think it was from same said Christmas Challenge that I came up with the alt-lyrics for Katse Got Runover by a Reindeer... I think I probably shoulda just stayed with that one... Anyway, I don't want to dash everyone's hopes but there are no plans for a sequel to Comrades. I've got seven more in the hopper and I'd like one of them to see the light of day sometime! Oh, and one of them is a humorous fic, Saturn. If/when my latest gets done, I may go back to working on that one. Something tells me I'll need some "light writing" after this one! And thank you for being kind with the pokey with me! I don't need to be poked for my latest one. I've got tons of ideas in my head for it, now I just need the time to write it all. Though something tells me that in about 2-3 weeks time, a good chunk of this one will be written! Maybe not completed, but at least a good way through. Hmmm, now that I think of it, where did I put that pokey protective suit?? Something tells me I'm going to need it...........

YES,YES!Your previous fic has shown me that you indeed have a very good sense of humor that I enjoyed very much. Life has been very tedious and I do need some "Light" reading from a pro like you, and I will be waiting patiently for that fic (no here, after all, the fic is described as a "light" writing, )

Originally posted by Hinotori Hmmm, now that I think of it, where did I put that pokey protective suit?? Something tells me I'm going to need it...........

Oh, Hino, I didn't realize that you had a Birdstyle! I am looking forward to seeing you in all of your Eagle Glory!!!!

Originally posted by saturn YES,YES!Your previous fic has shown me that you indeed have a very good sense of humor that I enjoyed very much.

Egads! Someone else who gets my totally warped sense of humor??? Thank goodness we all found eachother - otherwise I would just think I'm insane!

I do need some "Light" reading from a pro like you,

Pro?? Thank you for the compliment, but I don't think I would ever consider myself a pro... No, I'm just a girl who writes her all those stories in her head on paper. Nothing very pro about that!

Originally posted by Transmute Jun Oh, Hino, I didn't realize that you had a Birdstyle! I am looking forward to seeing you in all of your Eagle Glory!!!!

Yes, and if I change the phase in my bracelet, viola! I can become an Eagle in Swan's Birdstyle... And from what I hear, a certain Swan has some kickin' hooker boots I could wear!!!

Originally posted by Hinotori Yes, and if I change the phase in my bracelet, viola! I can become an Eagle in Swan's Birdstyle... And from what I hear, a certain Swan has some kickin' hooker boots I could wear!!!

Excuse me, those are STRIPPER boots! Stripper! Not hooker! Sheesh!!!!!!

Clearly *I* get your warped sense of humor... seeing as we wrote the fic together and got along so well doing it. Of course... that's not necessarily a recomendation for sanity...

Pardon my ignorance.... Let me rephrase that.... From what I hear, a certain Swan has some kickin' STRIPPER boots I could wear!!

I thought we decided ages ago that sanity was overrated anyway...

I step away for just a few days and by the time I get back Hino is now a "Pro" wearing stripper boots and questioning her own sanity. What have y'all been doing????

Dear TJ & Hino A Swan with STRIPPER boots, now that could be an inspiration for another fabulous fic from pros like you two (and I really mean the word "Pro" in all its true definitions, you two deserve it, ) Haven't I written in the previous post in this thread that I really need to put my smutty mind into rest for a while?You two are definitely not helping at all,

Originally posted by Transmute Jun Clearly *I* get your warped sense of humor... seeing as we wrote the fic together and got along so well doing it. Of course... that's not necessarily a recomendation for sanity...

Now Hino's idea for the Eagle to transmute into the Swan's birdstyle is definitely not recommended for sanity. Look at what you two have done to me when you made the Condor to transmute into Swan's birdstyle in your fic "All Shook up". You two had me laughing like crazy just trying to imagine that scene in my mind, and of course, people around me really questioned my sanity at that time, !

Well, I've been questioning my sanity for years... But it looks like the board is now in agreement with me... It seems I have crossed the border and I am now a Lunatic Boardie!!!! Woo-hoo!! Go me!!! As for the hooker boots, I think they're just a bonus...

Saturn, the joke is that when I made my Swan costume, I had to buy the boots from a 'stripper-wear' website. No one else sold thigh-high white boots! As for a fic... I don't think I'm writing the Swan as a stripper. But then, you could read Ebony's Lightening fic.

Congratulations on your new rank. This definitely fits well with our current Berg Katse week, and you can check out some of funny screencaps of the Eagle and Berg Katse in another thread. There are definitely some crazy moments between the Eagle and Katse,

Originally posted by Hinotori As for the hooker boots, I think they're just a bonus

Ummmm, they are STRIPPER boots, I guess the Eagle should have known by now not to make the Swan angry. The yo-yo can be deadly,

You checked out a "stripper-wear"website to perfectise your Swan look? I really have to give my props to you, you are definitely the true "Swan" in this board, So I assume that you wore the boots for your Swan custome during the Comic Con, and I guess that was why the Imagi people could not recognise the Swan character, probably they were way too distracted by your hook....stripper boots, I have read "When Lightning Strikes" (or was it "Lightening",sorry,I'm not really sure right now) and I remember that Springie had made a very nice picture for that pic. Just wondering right now on how she got the inspiration for that particular pic,
