A "metric f-ton" is short for a "metric fuck-tonne" and is completely made up. It's probably a little bigger than a "shitload" I guess. *^_^*
Techinically, "1 metric tonne = 1.10231131 short tons" (according to Google's nifty conversion feature).
I think I forgot to tell you that I wrote to MMJ after finding her "Dragon Domestic Practices" and following fics about Goujun's brothers, and to the part when I mentioned that it's rare to find others giving so much attention to Goujun and his kind, she responded by recommending I should read your great Goujun fics. ~_^
Unfortunately (?) after getting to know Goujun's family and culture so well through those stories by MJJ, they seem so real and vivid to me that I don't know if I'll ever be able to write my previous "quantum variant" of Goujun. Heh, we'll see. I do still very much intend to finish "Discovery." Before I leave on vacation would be nice, but I don't know. Being patient with my brain...
