I am indeed. I've been a fan of Freefall and 21CF for years, and the icon you see has Dr. Jenny Curtis in the background. (That image is a snippet of this one (http://level-head.livejournal.com/123797.html) of the Noble Webcomic Females. My beard is grayer these days.)
I take the stories fairly seriously, so the out-of-character and out-of-canon aspects of CTC don't work quite as well for me. I don't mind the fun, though.
I genuinely like the characters, with a special fondness for Florence Ambrose -- the "Tale of the Loyal Samurai" was a key moment in her character exposition, and I have lived that story long ago.
Scott still has the Poetry Corner on his 21CF site with my old dabblings. Speaking of which ... this occurred to me a few days ago:
There's a civilized gulf twixt the now-married wolf and the habits he'd had before But this is not in millennia and he fears that any of his urges might might make a blind score He's no meat-deplorer, but his look of horror on seeing his children's faces Reminds him of his history. Are their new mysteries rising to prominent places?
