Time once again for the twice-annual MALHIYS update! (sorry...) There are a whole bunch of great new pictures for your viewing pleasure in the fanart section. Many thanks to all the artists!

The little fella at right (click the image for an enlargement) was inspired by my new cellular phone number. In Japanese, 6-4-8-0 can be pronounced "mu-shi-ba-re(i)"--"insect 'valley"--which struck me as a cute idea for a pic.
