abusethis reveiw was ment for the last chapter but they wouldn't let me write another review. Anyway, I think the song Kyou should sing is "Baby I Love Your Way". It has alot of meaning behind it and it is played with a piano. What do you think? If you listen to it or already listend to it already, it realy, well the words anyway, shows Kyou's true feelings for Tooru. When I listen to it it makes me think of Kyou and Tooru. Well continue writing! Sorry this review is so long! I love the story line! You relly captured the charectors' personality. Please countinue, I am dying to read more.

abuseIt was refrshing to see in a self-proclaimed Kyoru fangirl's (the first stage is denial) fic that it began as a Yukiru story and that Tohru was confused about her feelings. I actually did laugh out loud during parts of your fic (especially during Kyou's internal debates). Finally (I thought to myself,) a realistic and in-character kyoru fic that is actually funny. A lot of furuba fics never quite seem to get it right: swinging wildly between sappy-cheesy, predictable romance, smutty stories that Shigure himself would be ashamed to publish (even under his pseudonym name), DDA, character massacre, sorry, /assasination/ and finally the inevitable "humour" fics, where the more random and unlikely to happen events are, the funnier the author considers them. You've got the balance right perfectly and the only advice that I'm my going to give you in my review is to KEEP IT EXACTLY AS IT IS, apart from the (hopefully) frequent updates. PS I also liked the way that you formatted it so that it was (a) actually legible and that (b) the translations were right next to the Japanese, (unlike some authors who think that their fics will appear intelligent if they include random, half-formed Japanese sentences that no-one (even a fluent speaker of the language) can have the vaguest hope of ever understanding. Ever.)

abuseI was going to submit a review for Chapter 2... Chapter 1? The Chapter after the Prologue, but then I thought, "I want to read the next chapter 3 (4?) right now." So, the end result was that you've written a page turner. Congrats!
I'm still very much impressed on how well you've gotten the characters to interact with each other.
More favorite lines:
"He was always up to something. Or maybe he just liked to appear as if he were always up to something."
"This was Tooru, the girl who took care of three dysfunctional men and their house while protecting their secret. This was Tooru, who had braved tent life… Tooru who had braved Akito… and who had lived to tell about it." (Dang straight she did.)
the flashback of why the piano shows up
"'Is it hard to play?' Kyou asked.
'Is it hard to learn martial arts? Is it hard to cook dinner? It all depends.'”
I really enjoyed the story thus far, and I think your writing abilities are wonderful.

abuseWow! This is so cute. I adore how you convey Tohru and company-- they're all very much in character. Yep, yep, all of them. I love their interaction.
My favorite parts:
when Tohru's trying to tell them to stop,
when Yuki and Kyo keep talking in stereo,
when Shigure goes off to find the camera (coughcoughpainkillers),
and when Yuki and Tohru are trying to outdo each other on their No-really-I'm-fine! acts.
Well... actually... it was all good! Kudos to you!
My favorite line: the whole paragraph that begins with: "Why are people always getting sick and injured around here?”
Finished with Chapter One! Next... Chapter Two!

abusegah! *beats Yuki with a straw!* poor Kyou-kun!! Tohru seems a little out of character to me...hm. I don't think she'd be as bold to let Yuki kiss her..I mean, this is Tohru. She's dense and oblivious to all that goes on around her, I doubt she would notice Yuki's, let alone her own, feelings for another. Personally...I'm not really a big Yuki fan myself, and from the looks of this last chapter, it appears to be yet *another* Yukiru fanfic. What's there to like about Yuki though? Besides his girlish looks and his prince-y attitude, I think he's a big creep who hides his true self from everyone and to be quite blunt, not that special at all. So why does everyone favor the sissy rat? X_x *If* Tohru were to end up with someone, I'd say it'd be more logical if she were end up with Kyou. 'Opposites attract' is one of my reasons of course! I mean Yuki is kind, et cetera, et cetera, and so is Tohru. It's not as exciting as Kyou, who's personality is fiery and somewhat uncontrollable, paired with the innocent Tohru. A relationship with Yuki and Tohru would be sipmly dull. It'd be the same thing over and over. Where's the excitement in that?? Kyou and Tohru on the other hand has a more stirring combination, a certain clash that seems to just fit together. Ya know what I mean? ^^

by the way, what's with all the Japanese phrases? It's a lot less stressful reading the actual English words and getting on with the story without ruining the mood rather than having to read Japanese, not understanding a word they're saying, having to go up to the top, read the translation and then go back to the bottom and read it over again. It's really quite annoying. That's one of my pet peeves, so if it bothers you, I'm sorry sort of XD
