Disclaimer & Explanation:
None of the Slayers characters belong to me, no money is being made from this story, and any resemblance to actual persons is purely on purpose... (Hmmm... in some respects none of the ideas belong to me, either. After all, I'm sure someone somewhere can find a resemblance in their work to anything I write. The fun isn't in the ending, it's in the trip.)
This fic takes place after Next. Much as the sound of Crispin Freeman saying "Come on (over?) here, cutie" works for me, I still dislike the random character fluctuations enough to disregard it. Gourry still has his sword, and Sylphiel's determination to travel with the group hasn't been lost somewhere in dropped-plot h#ll. Also, small useful magic (ie dimensional pockets, etc) that isn't explained in the series, but that makes carrying traveling supplies and loot around exists. (Otherwise I'd have to find clever ways for them to be carrying things like toothbrushes and Jammies. {Sticks tongue out.} It's my fic and I'll play if I want to.)
Oh, and it's going to be long. If you hate long fics, stop right here. In case you missed the couples in the description this is going to have definate Gourry/Sylphiel, and a bit of Lina/Zel.
Xellos does appear, but spends a lot of time either out of site, or messing people up.
