Guba decided to cooperate for a little bit again, upstairs, and I got to watch the anime version of the Golden Apple case. It's awesome! I just love seeing the manga stories come to life, with color and voices and music and whatnot.

One thing that's confusing me now is what exactly is the deal with the serial killer? Yes, I know Vermouth was masquerading as him when Ran saved her, but I'd previously thought that Vermouth was always the killer. And yet, the police couldn't have found the guy shot dead if he only existed as one of Vermouth's disguises. So, why did Vermouth pretend to be him for that little while, and how many people, if any, did she kill as him?

I also noticed the updated animation clips from episode 1 in the I Can't Stop My Love For You opening. ^^ So purty! Gin had those lovely fluffy bangs in the updated animation, and of course, in episode 1 he didn't actually have them. He just had that one long piece of hair the same length as the rest of his hair going between his eyes. And while that looks nice, too, I'm partial to the fluffy bangs. XD

XD If they were lovey-dovey, that would be scary. I just figured you hadn't read them because you don't like the timeline right now.

^^ I hadn't realized that SN and FS wrote Conan/Ai in a one-sided way. I had thought they wrote the pairing as coming to pass.

I like your views on Vermouth. ^^ Very intriguing indeed.

I figure Chris would have had to exist, really.... If Sharon and Yukiko were such close friends, wouldn't Yukiko have met Chris at some point?

"XD If they were lovey-dovey, that would be scary. I just figured you hadn't read them because you don't like the timeline right now."
Oh yeah it would be scary...^^;
(But in my opinion, a Gin/Akai story where those two are lovey-dovey could be more scary....*Shudders*)XD
yeah, I was talking about the timeline...
In a timeline with the black org destroyed, Gin not searching to kill Shiho anymore and with Shiho forgiving Gin for Akemi's death, the pairing become less tragic and fascinating for me...^^
" I hadn't realized that SN and FS wrote Conan/Ai in a one-sided way. I had thought they wrote the pairing as coming to pass."
Sn and first Silvera had wrotte Conan/ShinichixShiho/Ai on a one-sided way, but on Shinichi's side(Yes, it could become believable when it's handled in the right way), which is more interessing than on Ai's side...Xd
But well...Sarcasms and Encounter in Venice are not finished yet, and Fs had promised to made a sequel to the antidote, so it could become two-sided...^^
...or not? It's hard to imagine a Shinichi/Shiho story wrotte by First Silvera where the two partner finish to found happyness together, the flow of time seemed always torn apart those two...^^; XD
june's stories about those two are always two-sided, but in With this ring, well, their love is impossible(Not exactly, it's just those two could not finish happyly ever after...).
Not because it's one-sided or because Shinichi feelings had evolves when it was too late, but because the black org exist...
"I figure Chris would have had to exist, really.... If Sharon and Yukiko were such close friends, wouldn't Yukiko have met Chris at some point?"
Well, Yukiko talk about Chris but she don't seemed to have met her before Sharon's burrial...
After all, Sharon had never met Shinichi before Golden apple, so it's possible than Yukiko could not had met Chris before without finding it suspicious...
And "officially", Sharon and her daughter were torn apart when she was "alive" so...
Sometimes, I wonder if Chris was just the other side of Sharon, Vermouth...
I could picture Sharon seeing Vermouth like another person she had give birth to, in a way, but a person she hate besides that(Or because of that?)
And it could explain why she had told to her friend than her daughter had disguised himself as her dead father... Maybe it was a way for Sharon to tell than the dark side of her had killed her husband?

XD In my opinion, Gin/Akai period is scary. Though, I find I can actually more easily imagine Gin being fascinated by Akai than Vermouth.

^^ My rare hopelessly romantic side insists that tragic couples must have a happy ending if at all possible. I'm sure Des can attest to that. You may or may not be interested in No Way Out and Snow White Queen. As I mentioned, they'll deal with the darker interactions between the two, but of course, they'll also bring things to the point they are at in the future timeline. Shiho has not yet encountered Gin in No Way Out, though, and I'm still determining exactly how to lead up to it. I'm still messing with Breakdown, chapter 7, too. It just won't come out right.

I imagine Gin will always be somewhat possessive and twisted in their relationship, and perhaps morbid lines of conversation will be common between them. With Gin's twistedness and Sherry's wryness, I can somehow see them making various remarks about death, or at least hers. Kinda like on Gundam W when "Come kill me sometime!" became the running joke between Relena and Heero.

One-sided Conan/Ai on his side does sound interesting, and different.

What was Sharon supposed to have died from, anyway?

Very intriguing theories indeed. X3 I like that concept, and it would explain where Chris "went" to.
