That being said, I haven't actually managed to do it, but I have seen screenshots.<BR/><BR/>LOL sAMUS/MASTR CHEEF!!1!Sestrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01532615362536233956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-750861558902561769.post-83034854326463546712008-10-12T00:39:00.000-07:002008-10-12T00:39:00.000-07:00Slash fan fiction got its name because in online s...Slash fan fiction got its name because in online summaries, the characters being coupled would have their names joined by a slash.
