Q. What’s Heinkel’s attitude toward Japanese futa hentai?

Heinkel (thinking): …That is not realistic.

Q. What network is the first to have a vampire/ghoul/werewolf reality TV show?

A. Vampires, werewolves, and other such mythical creatures will no longer be seen as appropriate light-fantasy fodder for years after ’99. So, no reality shows. Also, no Twilight.

Q. How are Millennium’s members doing in the Integra Circle of Hell? Does every Nazi she kills go there or just the bigwigs (like the Major)?

Baalberith: Let’s just say it’s very, very crowded in there.

Q. Is the fangirl portal closed forever?

A. It is indeed. And the profiles have finally been brought up-to-date.

Q. Does Integra train Tim in the ways of Go Fish?

A. Trust between the two organizations isn’t quite that high. But they do have friendly (no, really!) matches when one of them is in town.

Q. If you could start your life over from any point…(concluded)

Seras: I…I’ve spent most of the past ten years wishing I could go back somehow and stop the murder of my parents…I thought I had come to terms with it, but when you ask a question like this…

And then I feel guilty, because it would have made my life unfold completely differently, and without me fighting in ’99 a lot more people might have died.

If I went back not quite that far, to some point after I became a vampire, I could have saved even more lives. Maybe even saved PIp’s…

But then I would feel horrible knowing I could have saved my parents, and didn’t even try. And would it really be for such selfless reasons, or would it only be because I selfishly wanted to meet my boyfriend and safe him too? Pip? How much of your life would you redo?

Pip: None. I wouldn’t change a single moment.

Q. Did the vampire attack of 1999 lead to the same national security measures as happened post-9/11 (Homeland Security, TSA, Patriot Act, etc.)? Does 9/11 still happen? What about the London Bus Bombings? How were Africa, the Middle East, India, and mainland China affected? (Feel free to answer each separately as needed.) Do the events of the 1999 attack cause any major shifts in global power due to the rebuilding effort? What was Ireland’s reaction to the attack? The RIRA’s reaction?

Erin: I gotta be honest, here: one reason I skipped the chunks of the timeline where all these details would have come into play? Is so I wouldn’t have to figure them out.

Here’s what I can tell you. After President Clinton was killed in ’99, Gore assumed the office, and handled the aftermath well enough to be reelected in a landslide in 2000. Between the increased security measures and the presence of an administration that didn’t ignore memos with labels like “Bin Laden Determined to Attack in US”, the attacks that would have become known as 9/11 were averted.

Anything beyond that requires more research than I’m up for. As with the Romanian/Orthodox reactions to Alucard, I’ll leave the speculation of what happens in other countries to people who know them more intimately.

(And no, for once, that isn’t a request for submissions. Although if you write it up as Shine fanfiction and post it somewhere, I’ll gladly share the link.)

Q. Do the world’s conventional armies start creating their own anti-vampire units and developing specialized anti-vampire and monster hunting tactics of their own? How do first responders learn to deal with the undead? Are police trained to deal with arresting vampires? Do EMTs and firefighters learn to fight fires in ghoul infested structures?

A. Yes; better; yes; yes.

(Seriously, go ahead and write the fic. “A Day in the Life of a First Responder, Post-’99.” I’d love to read it.)

Q. Whatever happened to Miss Clavel?

Madeline: Died peacefully several decades ago, with many of her former students by her side.

She was born before 1900. Did you expect her to still be around? We can’t all be vampires, regenerators, and mysterious non-agers (*cough*Ann*cough*)!

Q. Will you post remaining HellSINGs, fanart, and other looks into your sketchbook even after the comic is done?

Erin: Here’s the plan. First, guest strips. (Assuming I get any! I know a couple of folks are working on them, but none have been sent in yet.)

Then, the last Shine storyline. It’ll have Sunday Editions, as usual. Finally, a posting of The Eagle of Hermes in its entirety.

In the meantime, I’ll be going through my “Stuff To Maybe Use In Shine One Day” folder(s), to decide once and for all what’s worth saving. The good stuff will be cleaned up and posted during omake interludes between EoH chapters.

Q. Since it doesn’t look like you’ll ever sho it, will you give us a summary of the Sherlock Holmes/Pet Shop of Horrors story Integra passed up in favor if “Isn’t That A Little Bit Dangerous, Jeeves?”?

A. Sure will. There’s a note about it in one of the “Stuff To Maybe Use In Shine One Day” folders, so it’ll be turned into an omake, along with a bunch of other Storylines That Never Happened, But Could Have.

Q. Will Aziraphale (and possibly Crowley) ever interact with Angel!Penwood, Angel!Jeeves etc?

A. You can pretty much assume that all the angels will interact at some point. Given who’s writing this universe, of course Heaven is going to be all about crossovers.

Q. If you could start your life over from any point…(continued)

Yumie: Return to our childhood, find our abuser, and [censored] his [censored] and stuff them in his [not fit for print].

Ann Warbucks: Go back a decade or two, and make a killing in the stock market.

Anderson: I don’t think I could go through most of that life again. On the other hand, if I could go back far enough to avoid becoming a regenerator altogether…I’d move back to Ireland, run a daycare center, and die before Enrico was even born. Then hopefully do better as his guardian angel than I did as his guardian.

Heinkel: Return to my teenage yeras, find Yumie and Yumiko’s abuser, and [censored] his [censored] and stuff them in his [not fit for print].

Ann Warbucks: Oh, and do something about those Nazis too.

Fangirl Karaoke: Springtime for Hitler

Fangirl Karaoke: Springtime for Hitler published on 1 Comment on Fangirl Karaoke: Springtime for Hitler

To the tune of “Springtime For Hitler” from The Producers, parody lyrics written by Flyboy.

Soldiers
World War 2 was over, and the Allies were the winners!
Now the Allied vampire hunters are led by a spinster!
They thought the Nazis gone! They sang happy songs!
But they did miss, Op PAPERCLIP, and boy they sure were wrong!

Rip
And now it’s! Springtime for all of Millennium!
Vampires are happy and gay!
They’re marching to a faster pace!
No need for any master race!

Springtime for all of Millennium!
Now is the time for a war!
Springtime for all of Millennium!
Watch out Europe, we’re coming for more1

Springtime for all of Millennium!
Winter for hunters worldwide!
Springtime for all of Millennium!
C’mon traitors, join with your real side!

Vampire 1
I was turned in Düsseldorf,
and yet I am still called Ralf.

Vampire 2
If you’re German or Italian,
c’mon join the Last Battalion!

Rip
Ze Major is coming!
Ze Major is coming!
Ze Major is coming!
Springtime for all of Millennium!

Vampires
Heil Major!

Major:
Heil myself! Heil to me!
I’m the Kraut who’s out to kill humanity!

Heil myself, raise your hand!
There’s no better mass murderer in the land!

Everything I do will make you squee!
If you’re looking for a war, here’s World War 3!
Heil myself, raise your guns!
Now let’s get those vampires out to have some fun!

I was just a maddened soldier
No one caused more horror!
Then the Russians took Berlin
It caused a little furor!

Hitler he was dead
Self-inflicted to the head!
But I got out, and gave a shout
With a thousand mad undead!

For it ain’t no mystery!
In War’s great simplicity!
The thing about a war is!
Everything is showbiz!

Heil myself, watch our show!
I’m the cyborg Ethel Merman, don’cha know!
We care not for borders!
The world wide war is here!

Give a fangy smile! Everyone seig heil,
To me! Wonderful me! And now it’s–

Springtime for all of Millennium!
Goosestep, a new step once more!
V-1’s fall from the skies again!
Krieg is now on the rise again!
Springtime for all of Millennium!
Zeppelilns are sailing once more!
Springtime for all of Millennium!

Means that / We’ve got to be going!
Now we’re going! / We’re finally going!
You know we’re going! / We’re going right back into W-A-A-A-AR!
WAR!

(Fortunately for the world, this musical did, in fact, flop.)

Cameos: Calvin, Hobbes, and Calvin’s very confused parents.

Q. Does Angel!Penwood hang out with Angel!Arthur & his wife, maybe play cards or some such…?

A. That they do…

Penwood: He’s just learning how to walk on his own. Look at him go!

Mom Hellsing: Your grandson is so cute!

Arthur: Yeah, yeah, the kid’s adorable. Can we get back to the game now? I was about to hit Uno!

Q. Do Calvin and Hobbes ever visit a certain pet shop again, maybe when they’re older?

A. No need. Unlike so many of D’s customers, Calvin and his parents aren’t about to recklessly break their contract.

Cameo: Calvin.

Q. This is addressed to all the characters at large, most specifically any main characters who wish to include it (including dead ones, such as Anderson). If you could go back and start your life over (from any point in it — infant child or a week ago), what would you do differently? When would you go back to? Would you go back at all?

A. That is a fantastic question, so you’re going to get a whole bunch of answers.

Yomiko: Don’t do it, everyone! I’ve tried it! Time travel is not the answer!

Integra: I would certainly want to stop Millennium before they had amassed enough forces to attack. Either by giving the Brazilian government a tip and sending them to bomb the hideout, or simply going in and bombing it ourselves. We could have retrieved Maggie Mui from Hong Kong early on…subverted the Valentine Brothers’ attack…

Knowing that I have the strength to control Alucard, I would have awoken him much earlier. I’d have to arrange a similar scene, because there’s no telling how things might have gone if he hadn’t started out by being impressed with my boldness…

…but that wouldn’t be hard if I could arrange with my father to stage his death early. And it would be good to spend more time with my father, especially since I wouldn’t need it to be taken up with lessons I had already heard. I would start over at age ten.

Calvin: There weren’t any dinosaurs during my life, so what would be the point?

Q. Any plans to tackle Drifters?

Erin: Hirano’s new series? I haven’t even been reading it ^_^;

Q. Any plans to “remaster” more of the early strips?

A. Afraid not.

Q. Do you feel that Captain x Schrödinger is a believable pairing? And if so, what made you decide not to include the pairing in Shine?

A. Well, sure. I think lots of pairings are believable, in the sense that you could write them without being out-of-character. And Captain x Schrödinger could be adorable.

As far as Shine is concerned, though, I wrote a more childlike interpretation of Schrödinger. He may have had a bit of a crush on Seras, but overall he’s not interested in romance or sex. To his teammates he’s more of a mascot/little-brother figure.

Q. Did Crowley’s freakin’ sweet car get totaled?

Crowley: I fixed all the physical damage done during the siege, but I think a vampire must have gotten to it. Now, instead of “The Best of Queen”, all tapes left in it for more than two weeks turn into Within Temptation’s “Black Symphony.”

Q. What happened to the Iscariots? (continued)

A. Here are the rest of their stories.

Heinkel took a leave of absence and went on a backpacking trip across Europe to find hirself.

Timothy threw himself into the job with a vengeance, and eventually ended up running the place. Code-named “The Dove,” he ushered in a new era of interfaith tolerance for the Vatican’s secret division, all while not being afraid to order stabbings if the situation called for it.

Yumiko, Yumie, and company were allowed to officially retire and get therapy.

After Heinkel learned that they weren’t being forced to return, ze came back to the job. Ze spends hir vacation time at their side, creating a smorgasbord of pronouns that confuses everyone they meet.
