Thank you so much. :))) I'm glad to hear what you have to say about Takki's since it took me a while to work something out that got across the sadness of Takki's situation without characterizing him unfavorably. I know you're a Takki fan (hee, I was actually thinking of you as I worked on it) so I'm relieved to have a good word. :D

Thanks again, this was all just great to hear. <33
