And for the scary fact that Otogi and Mai can be described in very similar ways.
I actually belived it was Otogi you were describing until I read it was Mai...
Still, very good indeed

Haha, cute. At first I also thought it's Otogi Jou is talking to, but right when the whole punching issue came up, it was clear that it would be Mai. :D Like the idea.

I think I'm spamming your inbox today with reviews on your stories, but I'm sure that's okay by you

I love the clever little lead up to revealing the identity of Shizuka's mystery girlfriend, where it really leaves the reader wondering if the girl in question is Anzu, or Mai, or even another girl! You have a true knack for getting the characters in-character and keeping them there while they toss banter back and forth. And you got to sneak a little bossy Mokuba in there! Yay! It seems Mokuba will cheerfully turn on his brother to set him up with someone (one Jounouchi Katsuya, naturally), and then turn right back around to defend him! Very nice.

Thank you for sharing this story with us!

bwhahaha, so many possible people flitted through my mind when I saw this, and I gotta say, I DID think you meant Otagi to begin with...*facepalm*

Anyway, nice twist-totally didn't expect it to be mai...although then again, I'm not that familiar with that particular pairing, so...

Great oneshot!

Heh, it was very easy to mistake for Otogi at first! I suspected that it wouldn't be...but still it was a shock when the kiss on the cheek came! great story, very funny!

I am really shipping Mai and Shizuka... wow, I never saw that happening.

This was a cute and funny little fic.

That was far too amusing for my own good. You did a great job of messing with my head, and the Mokuba line killed me. Great job!

...

I really thought that was Otogi...

yes that is scary how otogi and mai can be described similarly. didn't you make Jou a little intelligent? one or two of the words he used i don't know. anyway love it lots keep up the brilliant writing!

-novelist!

Oh dear lord

It was Jounouchi's turn to laugh at Mai, a fitting payback for her earlier comments. "Yep. Turns out Mokuba plays the concerned brother almost as good as Kaiba does!"

Man, I was thinkin' it was Otogi, even though I got it from when talking about Mai/Shizuka.

this was good, but a tad confusing. I couldn't tell at the end whether Seren was with Mai or Otogi...but I liked it. I guess jou can be scary sometimes...

"I will return, for I am the darkness..."

Wow, you're right! When I first read the summary I thought, 'it's Mai', but then I read it and I thought, 'Okay...So it's Otogi...'. The you said it was Mai and I thought, 'God dammit! Why can't I read things that don't hurt my Jonouchi-like brain!' Because the only resemblence between the two of us is that we both seem to get uber confused at times. Anyhoo, enough rambling. Your story was grand, and you are brilliant. I'm just a loser. And now I need asprin...-.-

Rofl, that was so surprising! I knew it was in the shojo-ai fic archive, but I was still debating between Seto and Duke. xD When you said "earring" i'm thinking "Oh! Otogi!" And the Kaiba intensity... OO;

Anyways, I loved it. Great job! _

nice fic
