Yumie: Let me go. I’ll tear up that machine with my bare hands.
Heinkel: Yumie, you have no strategy. You’d get caught, or something.
Nenene: Yomiko.
{It has to be her.} “Yomiko Readman: The Paper.”
Pip: The writer chick’s right. After Big Red, our best bet’s Agent Paper.
Wells: You understand this woman’s strange language?
Pip: Japanese? Nah. But she speaks fluent Engrish.

Graduation day filler!
On DA: original art from 2008, and updated art from 2011.

Wells: There. I’ve patched it up. It’s now programmed to aim for the moment after its creation, when you can pre-empt the paradox.
But the tunnel will collapse midway through if more than one person tries to use it.
Seras: It has to be you, Master. You have the best chance.
Alucard: Set it up.
Fundamental: No!!
You can’t leave me, Akado! I order you not to!
Alucard: Great.
Doujinshi-Ka’s Inbox: Future Collaboration
Erin: This almost wraps it up for the Hellsing/R.O.D/Emma crossover. Yomiko and Nenene are going to stay around for the fangirl storyline, as you know from the application; but the action storyline is ending, and with it the end of Professor Xuanwu’s help in the writing of And Shine Heaven Now…
Xuanwu: Hey, Erin, I just had a few more ideas, if you want to work them in.
Erin: I have to start the fangirl storyline on time, and…these are all brilliant.
Xuanwu: Well, I’ve been thinking about these a little. This one’s an idea in progress.
I can come up with a very plausible way for just about the whole main cast of Sailor Moon to be in England. You can probably tell that I’ve thought a lot about Utena. Oh, and I just thought of an interesting claim…it’s vaguely related to Chuck Norris. Maybe next year for 2007, since you’ve done a crossover already this year. No sense in having too many too often.
Erin: Xu, I like the way you think. We have got to do this again.
But right now, we have to get ready for the fangirl attack.
Xuanwu: Already on it.

Yomiko: {He says he was sent to kill Integra. In his timeline, she’s the threat.}
Nenene: {Ah.}
Yomiko: {But because we’re the good guys in our timeline, he’s helping us.}
Wells: This machine is only meant to hold open a portal for two people. It’s been over-stressed and short-circuited. Let me take a look at it.
Let’s see…tighten these gears…give it a little grease…re-align the flux capacitor…
Seras (thinking): I wish I knew if that actually means anything.

Wells: I don’t know exactly how our timelines differ, but I can infer the basics. In mine, the British lost World War I. Embittered by a harsh treaty, they went on to instigate World War Two, aided by a clandestine vampire research division. They were only stopped by Germany’s supernatural research team.
In modern times, the German group was reduced to dealing with petty complaints — a vampire here, a kobold there. Then the British group unexpectedly resurfaced, more powerful than ever. I was created as part of an attempt to take out their leader before birth.
Seras: So you were sent by a German version of Integra!
Wells: What? Not at all. I was sent to stop Sir Integra, who is both British and the greatest threat our world has ever known.

Proud-parent Alucard is distracted.
Wells: She’s right. I’m here to help.
Yumie: I say we kill him. Why should we trust him?
Seras: Because he’s from Hellsing!
All: Hellsing!?
Alucard (thinking, not listening): My little girl just levitated all by herself!

Fundamental: This is all his fault! Shoot him, Akado! Shoot him, shoot him!
Alucard: GLADLY.
Seras (thinking): No way. That’s…
Seras: Wait!
Don’t shoot! He’s not the Wells from our timeline. Wait!

Nenene: {This is bizarre. I’m not asphyxiating, so we must be breathing, but I can’t move. Can’t swim through it, can’t walk on it, can’t move at all.}
{There’s nowhere to go, so it’s not really a problem, but…}
Fundamental: Eep! The I-jin guy!
Nenene: {…Okay, now it’s a problem.}
