I have the easy answer for that actually. We never really meant anything after PotB to be an "after story", there is no real "main" arc to our timeline. I think, in fact, that if you look at the whole timeline in scope of what the HxV Files is trying to cover, the actual moment of them becoming a couple is one of the least important personal events. Sure, it was the spark that led to a whole mess of things later, but compared to the many trials down their road, it's just not something either of us want to focus on.

The problem is that, for me at least, HayatexVivio is not exactly the most plausible of pairings, and I still have trouble imagining just how the hell that happened - and until the convincing "how" finally gets written, I will most likely stay like that. The writers undoubtedly already know how, either in just broad strokes or maybe to the tiniest of details, but I as a reader simply don't. The unfortunate end is that whenever I read these "after stories", I could never shake off the implausibility and can only react with "whatever works for the odd couple, I guess"

Hehe, I'm glad you liked! Quote:
The unfortunate thing I see from that issue is, well...the only story I wrote to try and "convince" the readers about the plausibility of the pairing is "You Never Lose By Loving," the first story. In all the other stories, I try to sell the strength of the pairing within the story itself*, not to the reader. (There was a whole discussion about this point quite a few pages back, so I'm not going to go over it again. But basically, I don't think as a writer I can convince anyone of a pairing they don't like, and I won't even bother trying. People like what they like). Some of my good friends read everything I write yet I still can't convince them of Hayate/Vivio, which is perfectly fine by me ^^. I didn't start writing the Hayate x Vivio Files to convince people of the pairing, I did it to entertain myself and those who think it's a funny pairing. *Although if the particular story is lacking on genuineness regarding the relationship, I'd love to hear that feedback, since that means the single story itself is poorly written and that's something I'd need to fix. So I really don't think that people will get the "how did they fall in love/get into a relationship/start dating" story that will be satisfying to what they want to see . The "how" moments, in my opinion, are either expressed in "You Never Lose By Loving" or in bits and pieces through the other stories. In "YNLBL" for example, it's Vivio finding the courage to voice her feelings. In "PotB," it's about Hayate and Vivio understanding and accepting the idea of an unconventional relationship, and getting to the point where they can meet on common ground. In "TTWT," it's about Vivio accepting herself and getting a new perspective on her relationship with Hayate. All those elements could be combined into a single multi-chapter story, but then the pacing of it becomes like a conventional romance, and I admit that I'm delighted that this unconventional romance is written in an unconventional way .

When you put "exploded" my first thought was more literal. parent's -> parents' (both are alive, right?) Now there's one more thing which Strikers will tie together: all from the Nanoha canon, Levi (meaning the Book of Darkness case), the knowledge of the other Chaos power user(Cinque), the half dragons, the valkyrie armor(was that its name?), and now Mr. Snuggles. I'm wondering now how much will Lutecia interact with Mr. Snuggles. I found curious that you decided to post Coda as one miniarc. The party and the Arisa's (and nor Sukuka's too) part could be separate miniarcs. |

Reia: I wonder if Suzuka and Arisa will come with Nanoha after finding out the Mr. Snuggles got teleported instead getting turned into a bloody heap of flesh and blood? Me: Who knows, Rei. Who knows.

*Where* is Dezo btw? I assume that RB is getting trounced by school, but I miss the small omake pieces the elder half of those two provide.

While we are on this chapter's topic, another point still untuoched is Chrono relating on a somewhat regular basis with Reinforce, who is basically his father's killer. |

By this point, I'm pretty sure that Chrono forgives Reinforce, he knows that she didn't have control over herself at that time.
Besides, if he's willing to forgive Fate, Precia, the Wolkenritter, Graham and the twins, why wouldn't he forgive Reinforce after all this time?
