Oh, quietann... I really, really, really loved your comments. I
laughed so hard at the (absurdity of the) STD's part[1] that I got
cross-eyed and my colleagues asked what was the matter... and I
_tried_ to explain. Considering that fanfic and slash are two terms
that they don't know in the first place, I had a hard time to begin
with; to explain why your comments were _necessary_ at that point
turned out beyond me.

I did intend to post my mirth in LJ, but I really had to finish my
work and leave for home, because it was getting late.

So yes, thank you for helping me laugh in the middle of a heated
discussion. I am sorry if it felt like your comments were dismissed

[1] OK... STD's are a real actual issue, I know. But the idea that
occurrences that would be fictional in relation to a setting that is
fictional in the first place, need protection against, is in the
absurd aspect that made me laugh so hard.

Greetings:
Kalina
