Such naivete touches my heart. And/or lack of information? :) I realize that I may have been assuming there. I was just remembering the warning concerning attacking Van that is in the Newbie Fest. And I do believe you yourself said something about the reputation of the OAM on-list, although I can't really remember, because whatever it may have been, it was a _long_ time ago and I definately do not have the post anymore. >Of course I would never >attack Van, but I must point out that it has nothing to do with the OAM >(although I respect your desire to defend his Magical Whininess). I >wouldn't attack Van simple because it would just be another excuse for him >to feel self-pitying and angst-ridden and to be mean to Stefen (who >happens to be *my* favorite male character in the Misty canon). >*giggle* Of course you do realize that what you just said _could_ be construed as an attack on Van. I do believe you just referred to him as being whiney, self-pitying, mean, and a person who will take any and all excuses to be that way. ~toothy grin~ However, as I realize that you didn't really mean it as an attack, I won't get on your case about it. Which in my case just means refuting what you've said about Van that is not "correct" while trying not to make you feel as if I'm attacking your personal opinions. >I'm sorry, but as one of the traditional "enemies" of the OAM (y'all were >founded by my "fiancee" and co-venerable elder, Heather, as a response to >certain criticisms made against Van by yours truly), I just had to >respond. What? Oh, no, go right ahead. I don't mind. Really. :) And while I may not be able to remember whever it is you may have said about the reputation of the OAM way back when, I do remember when you grinned and winked at the entire OAM after saying that you didn't happen to like Van. You didn't see it, but in the entire Order I was the one who grinned and winked back. And if you need to correct me on any of this, go right ahead. I'd probably appreciate it. I watched Lady Hawk again for the first time in ages. Nevarr and Isabeu now remind me of Sunsinger and Shadowdancer. :) Stars light your path, Sorana S.
