I loved this story. I mean I absolutely LOVED it! It was a highschool fic but it brought out different points in highschool life that a lot of authors dont use. I think its just effing brilliant!

I wasnt going to break my tradition of leaving a review for the last chapter I read on a fanfiction. And I didnt. But god knows I wanted to. This was a great fanfic =] I got hooked on your stories after I read your WIWYL story. I forgot to review on it cuz I wanted to read another of your stories haha. Being in high school myself it was easy to get into your story. I loved it! ehe..this is long... But well...the story made me think and as I've said, I loved it. Haha I seriously cant wait to read your others. Expect another review on the last chapter I read.Its tradition after all =]

I HAVE to congratualte u on this AMAZING story, AMAZING storyline and AMAZING ending. althoguh it made me cry, i ~LOVED it. but a epilouge would have been nice in which if it was...um..i dont know..er...maybe cloud teasing leon or jsut sth funny... cos it was SO SERIUOS THAT IT WAS AMAZING!

AH i loved it. I loved Everyone (except Kosha of course. ;p ) and just...wow...i love cloud and leon and riku and sora! YA i jsut loved this!

cant wait to read ure other stories! ya am just so happy right now. this stroy made me bubble and cosy, so thansk for thta... =)

i must say that at eh end of this, i am crying.
yup.
crying.
just because it reminds me of all that had gone on in my high school years. though i was in concert band(i was a cello//_^)...not marching band...that damn thing would be hard to march with...

good job.

i liked it a ton.

Okay, I realize this is probably really unexpected, but I have a habit of reading the older stories first. Anyway, this story may be the best I've read ever! It's just amazing! It's so fluffy, but so REAL at the same time! And I'm so happy SOMEONE recognizes the colorguard. But, seriously, what kind of guy guard member is straight? With love for the band and guard, Mini-chan

That was an intersting read. The whole Cleon aspect was a little depressing, but I really loved how Cloud made the homophobe skip around screaming "I'm a pretty princess." I was never in band in high school so maybe that's why I can't really relate too much to some of the more specific things you were talking about in reguards to the moves that Sora made when in the flag guard thingy, but I still liked the emotion and the cuts between different characters. And I'm damn happy that Cleon got together in the end. I would have been perturbed if it had ended so bittersweet. I hope you continue to write, you have a lot you can bring to this fandom.

We have one male member of our colorguard. I suspect he is gay, but that's not because of the fact he's in colorguard, he just acts like a flamer.

I really like this story, and I can just see Sora twirling his keyblade. X3

This story is amazing. I love it.

Dead. I am so f*ing dead right now, pardon my french. That killed me. You had me in tears at graduation and Cloud and Leon not getting together, but I had to know what else was left, so I kept reading, and GAH. Jeezus. Happy-melty goo = Me. Holy freaking crap. And also, that first song of Paine's? I've never heard it before, but it's now one of my favorites.

I just have to say...

THIS STORY IS AMAZING XD

i love your style of writing, and i love the plot in general!! The thing that got me the most...(i started to tear up) was at the very end when Paine dedicated the song to the band...that just really touched me. T-T

I just have to say, Riku is extremely sexy and compassionate in this story...omg, i would just love to have him as a boyfriend. but yeah, i hate those stories that make Riku all mean and stuff so yeah, you get cookies ^_^

Well, continue your fantabulous stories! and maybe you can throw in some Akuroku here or there ;]

YAY band and guard people! i'm glad i happened upon this story!! our band and guard hold mini competitions over stuff all the time. ^__^

Oh my god... You... That was one of the most amazing stories that I have ever read. So many of the things that you wrote about were so touching that I couldn't help but cry... The song play between Cloud and Leon along with the backstory was absolutely exquisite! I also like they way you carried the prejudice and bigotry through the whole story (I wanted to rip some people's throats out as I read this ^-^), and I liked the way that you designed Quistis, although I kind of had the same reaction as Riku and Sora at the end!
thank you so uch for keeping with this story, and not letting anything turn you away. This is definately one of y most favorite stories ever!

so cute I loved it I loved it so much! I'm actually in college now (freshman) and I was color guard captain for junior and senior year in high school. and you know what's funny? for my senior year as captain, I recruited a boy! and he was my boy flaggot (we called the whole team flaggots, which is also really funny if you think about it). anyway, this story TOTALLY struck home for me because the one thing I really miss is band and flag because I don't havea team anymore. And I just want to say thanks so much for creating a fanfiction where my favorite things are blended together! you're the best! Not to mention that the switch between writing and the whole cloud/leon thing was amazing!

*sobs* that was such a beautiful story!! It was so sweet and something you don't really often see... normally everyone's in the same year and stuff or there are some that are in the same year and the others are all in a different (but same) year. And normally they all go to the same college! wow!! I love this story!!
Keep writing!
