Hey, waitasec! (aka: I have news for you all! Read this!) (Fri Oct 20 12:57:59 2000 )

Here is some news and a question. . . ! !

My husband came back from work last night and 
told me that he'd swung by a shop I go to on and 
off here in Boston. He said *they have cels*. 
Needless to say, I went to see for myself. . .

No one get too excited, because lo and behold, 
there were a whole bunch of the cels that Usagi's 
House sold at their sale. . . . And I spotted 
cels from a number of other dealers we all 
frequent - all marked up at least 75% over what 
they had been on the sites (some more than that). 
As soon as I saw that, I made sure not to name 
any characters *I* was after even though the girl 
at the counter was obviously trying to quiz me 
for what I liked. ~_~

I was disappointed, but I looked through the rest 
of the books and came across the genga you see 
below. It was cheap and pretty but as I pointed 
it out to pick it up, I saw it was labeled as 
being from Lodoss. . . !!O_O!!  I don't know 
Lodoss at all. Never seen it, not a fan. But 
there is only one character from Lodoss who I 
know looks like this. . . If a Lodoss fan 
confirms to me that this IS Deedlit, I have some 
more news.

They have the rest of the genga to this short 
sequence. (Two genga for each frame, I bought the 
A1 pair, the rest are A2-A6End.) Prices vary, but 
the whole bunch wouldn't barely hit what I pay 
for an unmasked Larva cel. (I mean it, these 
things aren't pricey.)

SO. . . If this is who I suspect it is, I'd be 
happy to make some Lodoss fans very happy. I will 
be in Boston again tomorrow with a friend. If 
anyone would like details on the rest of the set, 
or would like me to pick up some of the others, e-
mail me. I'm more than willing to pass them off 
for cost, including this one, even though I did 
sort of pick it up to keep. (Not being a fan, I 
would kinda feel like a heel keeping it away from 
a fan. ^_^  Especially if someone out there wants 
the whole set of the genga.)

The only note on this is that since I am *not* a 
fan, if you're going to ask me to pick up the 
others, I need you to be very sure you want them. 
Space in my cel books is at too high a premium 
right now. ^_~

Feel free to reply here or to e-mail me 
privately, I will monitor both until I leave 
tomorrow - which will be until about 11:15am 
Eastern US time.

(I should have scanned in the yellow genga first. 
That one is actually prettier than this one, 
although it doesn't show the sword. . . ^_^)

Many Sharp Smiles,
--Drac (why can't a *LARVA* fall into my lap?!?!?)
