It's absolutely not one of your best. [Not that Alucard ever wants to be on the wrong side of Gideon's nicknames either. Al is more than enough, and she is the only person who's a) ever tried it and b) totally gotten away with.] I won't ask what you found, but I do have to know what you did to get banned in the first place.
