Help! I need a beta!

Alrighty, we did it!

I went through this once and left a bunch of comments. Then I sent it to Matt and he left a bunch of comments, then he sent it back to me and I finalized the piece.

Diane called us the Hitler and Stalin of beta'ing while we were doing it.

I think Matt's more like Tojo, though.

I e-mailed it back to you. Hope it's been mutilated to your satisfaction. =o

You two are the biggest Beta-Nazis I know!

Yeah, but they're awesome!

I've just read my fic with their notes, and I couldn't be happier

Thanks, guys!

Oh, and I don't even find you too harsh

*let's out a breath*

You don't know how relieved I am to hear that. Of course, I was half-asleep when I beta-ed it, so it was probably a good thing Darko took a second glance.

I'm reading the wikipedia article on Tojo now!

I'm on the same wiki article.

The only thing is that all the notes are listed as Darko's; I don't get it.

Oh, and really, don't worry, I'm immensely grateful, you had nothing to fear!

omg, Nina!

You should have been there when they were going back and forth asking each other questions about it.

Pssh, I can only imagine.
Well, what I can imagine is along the lines of this:
"WTF is this shit?"
"What the hell was she thinking?"
"Ha, as if that could work!"
"What's the point of that?"
"Why? Just Why?"
"How could someone even think that?"
"LOL"
"So how can we say 'it's crap' in a nice way?"

It might have been interesting if they were saying things like that.

It was more along the lines of...

"Why add Matt in there?"
"Well I figured it would work with the independence."
"Well I was under the impression that the two traits applied to Taichi."
"Oh, I see it as one attribute of Tai and the other in general so I gave it something to connect to."


I kid you not!

Darko reworked my comments, which is probably why there's none of my comments. I added about 5 or 6, which Darko did with as he pleased.

Yeah...that was what we were talking about, along with other stuff.

Yeah, I'm evil like that.

You guys make me laugh, lots.

Hey, so I still haven't posted it, but that's mostly because I've been travelling around minus my laptop.
Anyway, two things:
1. I've changed a few tiny things, so if anyone's willing to give it a final look, I'd be grateful

2. I have no idea what to call the fic

Yes, ma'am. Just fire it my way again and I'll take another look.

I'm willing to beta anyone if they need it. Just let me know.

Oh, btw, Nina. Your chapter is good to go.

There wasn't anything I felt that needed changing or commenting on the second time around. I would've told you this much earlier; I read it the day you e-mailed it to me, but since you went on vacation that very same day it kinda slipped my mind by the time you got back. ;x

Oh!
You really musn't feel bad about it, seeing as the fic completely, and I mean completely, slipped out of my mind!

Thanks for reminding me!

(though now I feel like rewriting it. How long will it take me to post the bloody thing? I haven't a clue, maties)

I kinda want a beta for one or more of my current stories...

One's a one-shot, and the other isn't. I don't really have much motivation to write, so my non-one-shot probably won't be updated too frequently (by my standards).

I'd rather Darko not beta my one-shot, since I don't feel like re-writing the story (No offense intended)

Anyone interested?

Oh oh oh! Is one of them the challenge I gave you!?

We all know my beta skills suck so I won't recommend myself and you're anti-Darko so... *le sigh*

I wouldn't mind beta-ing if you don't mind someone who is still a tad inexperienced in the field and might take a little while to get things done these days!

Great! I'll send a copy to uh...one or both of you when I'm done.

Sounds good!

Oh I get to see it too! Yay! I get to grill you like you grill my work!!! FUN!

I feel left out.

You want to beta my non-one-shot? (Then again, you practically beta'd it with that review of yours)

...*tentatively raises hand* I'll beta anything, if you guys need a reader. After finals, my life is going to get boring fast. (Well, in actuality, I could be learning the Led Zeppelin marching show for next year... *snickers* As if... I totally just fake my way through the music in marching season.) But you get my point.
