Du'ah, Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! I'm currently putting out updates to the prequel of both Six Friends, and A Certain Magical Sunset while I work out how best to deal with the combined timeline and events in A Certain Scientific Twilight. And while I do, kicking out chapters for Tales of an Equestrian Battle Mage, the prequel to all of them.
It keeps me sane.
Mostly.

Forgot to fav that when I read it. I'm only about half way through reading "A certain magical sunset", so I'll get to the rest eventually.

I will say that "six friend one heart" is one of the better takes on anon-a-miss. I look forward to reading the rest!
