As the title says. ^^ When I posted the scenes from novels 13-15 I had actually only skimmed through pages... now I've reread the last chapter of novel 15 thouroughly and I have decided to edit the last two scenes by adding the translation of what precedes the first one, and of the few pages that join them... so, no changings, actually, only an addition. =P
But I'm sorry because... well, the setting of the "crying scene" is actually very... peculiar, and in my - fast - first reading I hadn't realized that too. XD And a few people have already produced some wonderful art based on that scene. But, really, I love it nonetheless, even if in the canon version of the scene Gourry is probably wearing pyjamas. XD 

So... enjoy. ^^

… here’s some scenes from Slayers novels 9-15, focusing on the Lina/Gourry relationship. ^^

Actually, I haven’t read all the books through yet… I just spoiled myself a lot. XD And above all I skimmed through the last three books, so there are probably a lot of good moments missing in this post. I will write them down as I read the books properly, and will make another post, eventually.

I guess many of you are already familiar with the summaries of the novels written by Qp Diana, but in case you are not, I advise you to read them... it will be very helpful in locating the scenes in the plot. ( homepage3.nifty.com/QPHOUSE/gensaku/summary.html#slayers )

So, on with the translations…

Uhm... to anyone who might happen to find this page... hi! ^^
I'm an italian girl, I'm 24, and I am currently attending my Phd in East Asian Arts and History, working as a researcher for the civic museum network of the city of Venice.
I'm basically the reflexive type, but, as my friends would gladly confirm, I can be very stubborn at times, and I can always use a good laugh (even if it's directed at myself). Irony and sarcarsm are highly underestimated, if I can say so. ; P
Books, ranging from classics to fantasy literature, are my big love (I'm a bit of a bookworm, actually...^__^) and I also enjoy writing (mostly fanfiction). I TOTALLY adore The Slayers (I was prompted to create this account mainly by my excitement with the new Slayers series and my willingness to participate in some of the communities), and I'm a huge, huge supporter of the Lina/Gourry ship. Both Lina ang Gourry are wonderful characters, in their own way, and they make, IMHO, one of the most fun and amazing couples of the whole anime world.
I must say I'm not usually very active on the internet (let's just say that we have some open issue, me and technology), but you can find me also at the Slayers Again Forum and at the Erika's Fanfiction Page (italian only, sorry).
English isn't my native language so please, just forgive any grammar or spelling mistake on my part. ^^
