Spoiler for I Never Knew You Could Take it Literally:
I don't care that I'm supposed to be asleep at the moment, but this was awesome!!! I love how you're giving Vivio her own adventures on the side while Lutecia's drama in the Shadowverse is playing out .

I liked the comparisons between what the librarians are doing and what field agents do--definitely, the magic use is the same, even if the spells are different. What a great way to show that the "support staff" genuinely kicks ass too in their own way! (Unless they're Vivio, in which case she can kick ass both ways )

Vivio's fight with Lutecia making her irritable is great--we see so much good and perfect Vivio in fanfiction, it's nice to see her flawed and snappy for a change . And the idea of Vivio having higher clearance than Lutecia made me giggle . It goes to show that knocking heads in in the field would probably get you information only on a "need to know" basis, while the thinkers would likely get access to more.

Quote:
"This must be classified Don't Tell Your Wife," Vanya joked, making Vivio blush at the thought of being Lutecia's wife some day.
LOOOOOOOOL . And AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!

The Librarians supporting the Enforcers on rush jobs like this (mimicking a race-against-time mission that we normally see in media) is a great way of making grubbing through books exciting, and also to show how essential these guys really are. Excellent as always, Dezo!

I swear, I hit the end of the fic and I thought that it was Chapter 1 of many. Truly. *coughcoughhinthint*

I could think of hundreds of things funnier then E8. But I'll take your word and see how this goes.

Trust us; Window of Opportunity is a thousand times better than E8. Not difficult to do, admitted; but it's not as bad as you think.

Spoiler for I Never Knew You Could Take it Literally:
Worth a shot, eh, Vivio? *comment on omake*

Needless to say, this whole thing left a grin on my face. I was always wondering if you would continue on with the whole Magical Librarian!Vivio aspect of the 'verse since you first posted a story about it awhile back, and this was decidedly awesome since we got to see just how the Library operates deep inside; not all that different from a field agent, really, even when they're using that power for different reasons.

I am also now tempted to write a follow-up with Lutecia's side of the whole conflict, if only because it would be a lot of fun to write and you know Victor would get a kick out of seeing the usually calm, reserved Lutecia snappy and irritated. It's a very nice touch, though; it shows that even with the whole drama of the main storyline settled (what with Vivio being nineteen here), there's still occasional bumps and bruises along the way.

I like, and it is awesome. I hope for more installments for this side of the 'verse!

Hmmm..... very very interesting short we have here! I really liked it and I'm interested in seeing how Vivio will access the Nexus and find the Book of the Dark Kings with her Godly (literally) clearance Also, I'd like to see this fight between Lulu and Vi developed.

I shall look forward to the next chapter *hinthintcoughcough*

The same is true in the Nanohaverse. If Momoko was Kyouya's mother, that means she got pregnant with him at 14. Possible, sure, but unlikely.

I've never seen a particular cause of death for Shiro's first wife mentioned anywhere. I suppose it is possible she died in that attack since I imagine she was probably some one his family chose for him when he came of age (he was 18 when Kyouya was born).

There were two attacks, yes. One on a Fuma/Mikami family gathering that killed them all except Shiro, Kyouya, Miyuki, and Misato (I don't think they were present). Many years later was the bombing that killed Shiro and Fiasse's father. In the Nanohaverse, Shiro survived that incident.

Heh, this is gonna go on for awhile, isn't it? Is it odd that above all I want to know what Vice's question is?

Best time loop story I remember is the one from Xena: Warrior Princess. At one point she got so fed up she just killed whoever woke her up and went back to sleep XD

As for Endless Eight comparisons, the difference here is that the parties involved remember everything and can actively try to change things.

Subaru's "Bad example" is on the verge of becoming a running gag at this point, all in one chapter. XD

Poor girls. Now they're on their way through the third time loop, though it looks like this time they got a little bit closer to preventing it. One has to wonder how long it will take before Subaru and Teana decide to just give up on trying to convince the others and go out to resolve the issue on their own.

It's funny, Subaru being, well, Subaru, probably would not instill much confidence in her word that something's weird....but then again, if it's Subaru who is suddenly so well informed of everything, then folks should have reason to believe that she didn't do research ahead of time to trick them XD.

It's definitely understandable that Hayate would be skeptical and not really believe Subaru and Teana off the bat, but....damn it, Hayate, aren't you normally the Genre Savvy one in fanon???

I loved the part where Hayate was half-annoyed and half-amused at Subaru's interruption at the beginning . The "bad example" pun is hilarious as RB said, and in just this chapter along it's developed into a nice running gag .

Subaru's failed dramatic revelation made me laugh out loud .

I wonder how many time loops it would take for Subaru to finally remember to pull Yuuno out of the way??? XD

I like how both Subaru and Teana were suspicious of Bantam, nice to see that they're not fools. It's rare to see genuine competency in humour fics, so I liked seeing it here!

I'd rather she decide to make it so they collide in a more... compromising position

Anyway, why do I have the feeling that once someone points out that "hey, anything you do won't matter on the next loop" that they're going to do what Jack and Tea'lc did when Daniel pointed it out to them?

...

Except they don't have a Stargate to launch golf balls through the universe.
