Day 19

I crossed the 30k mark a day late and took another little bite out of my shortfall, but not as much as I wanted to --- I wanted to make it to 31k today, and I'm so close that I might go ahead and do it after midnight, but for now I'm doing the daily post.

Story-wise, there are no cookies for guessing where this is going. I'm jealous; if the anime had done this, they would have rattled it off without a second thought and we all know it, but my brain demands that I dot i's, cross t's, and ask the characters what they would logically do under these circumstances until it's water-tight. Once again I'm taking for-freaking-ever (with the world-builder's disease aiding and abetting), and I can't help wondering if a bolder attempt to put it over on the reader might have worked better, but for now, I'm forging ahead; that's the important part, and it is fun.
