Mitsukai, it does not please me to continually revert your edits, but I must insist that you provide a reference for cigars being referred to as "Fumarellos" in the re-imagined series. As far as I am aware, this term has never been used in that context. --[[User: | Mitsukai, it does not please me to continually revert your edits, but I must insist that you provide a reference for cigars being referred to as "Fumarellos" in the re-imagined series.
