Well, I got married because of it, that was a pretty big change XP

(I mean, it really has, because now I have someone at home to share the FEELS with when they get overwhelming~)

I have yet to write a fic where I've worked any of the siblings into it in any meaningful way, so I've no set ages in mind.

Though the stuff at the start of season 2 is in the morning right? Fuu's about to head out and Umi is having breakfast. So I guess maybe Hikaru is just working out before changing to go to school? So idk what you'd make of her and Masaru not being in uniform. If I were to write her brother's I'd agree Kakeru's about two years older, I'd put Masaru only like 18 months older than him, like they're very close in age in my head. With Satoru in his early 20s?

I'd say Kuu was in her last year of high school.

See, I think Kuu couldn't be more than three years older than Fuu.

But I base this on the fact that if we take the birthdays as canon, the first series takes place in March, just after Umi's 14th birthday. (This is the only way they can all be four in second year of junior high.) My guess is this was the end of year field trip. (Not that we think CLAMP thought that through at all, because when do they ever?) So, if you add the vaguely estimated time for families to be worried about them, etcetera... It's probably been at least a month or three, so they would then be in third year of junior high, so if Kuu were four years older, she wouldn't still be in high school.

Still not sure about what I think on Hikaru's brothers, besides I think I agree with you that Kakeru is only about two years older.

I've updated the list to include all the new little fics.  I haven't posted all of them over on FFN, but perhaps I will at some point.

Not sure this is going to happen for a variety of reasons.  Budget among many others.

Hope everyone is well. 

We'll see what the next year brings.

Is everyone is Cephiro immortal? i mean even the villagers? Immortal in the means that they don't die of an old age? If that so, then Cephiro will get over populated.. well just my random thoughts. or maybe the not aging thing is just for the mage or someone who can do magic... another speculation from me... LOL

So back to the topic about Umi/Clef, some may really find it hard to imagine those two together specially on season 1 since their relationship was like a student - mentor thing or cat - dog thing on the 1st episode (which is quite cute). Not even a single hint that those two were going to be an item. I was too surprised on some of season 2 episodes where Clef and Umi did show concern for each other. who would have thought really that Umi would actually have a thing on Clef. Obviously she does have a thing for Clef she just couldn't admit it and i was like (Come on Umi just say you like him!!!) I was really unsatisfied with their story i think it was quite unfair for Umi because she was the only one left without a lover. 

To the immortal thing, I think it depends on the will of the people to live? Mages or anyone with ranks are Cephirians who have a much stronger grip on their will and has much more power to wield it.

AND I ACTUALLY AGREE ON THE UNSATISFYING PART. But, hey, this actually showed how mature Umi's become and how she could wait till the more perfect time to tell him. This just broadens the boundaries of how slow, but sure their bond will be. At least in my point of view.

other than that. Hi. I've been a shipper of the two since 2004.

as I've gotten older I've learned to trust D-Bal Max and consume my media more objectively and generously, and it's opened up a lot of characterization for me.  I shot my mouth off a bit early in the Hikaru Discussion thread, years ago, but I've learned how to reconcile the differences in her character and what annoyed me about it, I learned to "read" her differently.

I've also gotten less "fangirly" and more "emotionally compromised", especially reading the end of the manga.  I've been with Hikaru, Umi and Fuu for 17 years now, and they mean a lot to me and, honestly, to who I am.  I feel their feels.

My relationship with Rayearth hasn't changed much over the years. I just appreciate minor details a lot more than I used to. Still love it to death!

"You're together? But he's a kid! And you're a tree!"

(Because this line from my vaguely Arthurian AU still cracks me up every time)

Rayearth? RayRAYearth ~RAYEARTH~.

Ray EARTH.

(RAY earth?)

Rayearth, rayearth.............
