liliaeth 2006-09-17 ch 7,	abuseThis is a wonderfull look through MJ's eyes, I really hope you'll continue it.
sUnKiSsT 2006-07-24 ch 7,	abuseyou've got to update this! its great and it sure deserves more than 30ish reviews! Great job so far! ashley¤
Lady Suneidesis 2006-05-16 ch 7,	abuseFirst, an apology for the lateness of this. Second, I have to say that this is one of the most beautiful kisses that I have ever read. The "falling like diamonds" is a perfect phrase to end the chapter with. Gorgeous! I also love how you focused on what the kiss meant, the connection of souls, rather than on any questionable descriptions. Often, when I read stories on I kinda skim over the romance because it tends to get dirty. But this was...breathtakingly beautiful.
htbthomas 2006-03-03 ch 7,	abuseI was looking forward to this chapter as soon as I saw the title... Sigh. I'm glad you followed Betty's wish, otherwise I might not have known about this lovely story!
htbthomas 2006-03-03 ch 6,	abuseOkay - lol: "She threw herself back into her chair and glared around at her friends. “You know, I bet Harry doesn’t have friends that listen in on private conversations,” she mock growled." Of course, we know Peter was listening to the other side of that conversation... I thought you blended the movie dialogue with your own seamlessly.
IcyWaters 2006-03-03 ch 7,	abuseI can’t believe I haven’t reviewed this before. This is a fantastic story! I love the way you are working in new sequences featuring MJ into the context of the first movie. It’s amazing how flawlessly they merge. It’s also very fresh and imaginative and nothing seems rehashed. While MJ is the standout, you have added so much depth and emotion to all of the characters. It’s fun seeing Norman’s evolution as the Goblin, and how he comes to realize that he is “extraordinary.” :-) One of my favorite scenes was when he broke into the Pentagon. In one of the earlier chapter (I think it was the first), you wrote how MJ was staring at her reflection in a mirror and didn’t like her round, fat face. I kind of wondered where that came from – and later on there is the scene where she goes back home and her father makes a comment about her fat face. Little things like that are some of my favorite bits in your writing. Everything has a background/history, and never comes out of nowhere. Your writing is clean, simple and elegant; each chapter is an easy read… And at the same time, it has such rich detail and intricate plotting. As someone who has tried and failed on numerous occasions to write her own fanfic, I am quite envious of your ability. You make it seem so easy! :-) Some of my favorite lines/descriptions so far: From this distance, the cars looked like expensive toys, lit up and moving past miniature streetlamps and tiny doll-like pedestrians. He wondered how there could be so many people with reasons to be out at nearly three in the morning. But his blue eyes—so much more noticeable since he got contacts—were direct and confident, and there wasn’t a trace of the apologetic hunch that had so clearly broadcast his insecurity to the bullies and creeps in high school. On the right side of the balcony, a handsome boy stood by a girl in a cheap pink silk dress, gaping at him. The Goblin weighed the small orange bomb in his hand. Throwing it could kill the boy. Did it matter? Well, some things had to be left to chance. For the second time in a week she had lost her life and he had handed it back to her as easily as some other good Samaritan might return a lost purse. I'm eagerly awaiting the next chapter!
conan98002 2006-03-02 ch 7,	abusethis story is pretty good
betty brant 2006-03-02 ch 7,	abuseDee-lightful! Your chapters have a knack for making my day, and this one is no exception. I don't think you should feel that the writing here is at all pedestrian. In your characterizations and descriptions, you have a lightness, a deftness of touch that I really appreciate. The fight between Janeen and MJ is well done and believable, and the kiss (of course) is perfect. It's an iconic moment in the movie, redolent with overtones of metaphor/ symbolism beyond the romance -- and here you convey that quality. Oh, and I liked the way that the chapter starts off with dysfunction (Harry wallowing in self-pity, Norman's psyche fragmenting before our eyes) and end it with connection (our sweethearts empathizing & communing, however briefly). I look forward to reading whatever you decide to write next (and I still intend to send you that PM -- real life has me by the throat, sorry). Meanwhile, I loved this. But you knew that already!
techgeekster 2006-03-02 ch 7,	abuseThat was really good! I like this new chapter!^^
Indigo Spirit 2006-03-02 ch 7,	abuseWow! You haven't update this story in a good long while (not that I'm aware of any ways). It's good to see it update though. For some reason I liked imagining Harry taking a bath ... Now what does that tell you? X_X
VeltaIO 2005-11-03 ch 6,	abusePlease return to this story. I like your view of MJ and of the way you show Norman - his interactions with Harry and his confusion over the Goblin - and I want more. This is definitely much more than just a rehash of the movie. Please continue.
tkelly03 2005-08-04 ch 6,	abusegood so far, keep going
Bronny 2005-03-28 ch 6, anon.	abuseI never considered MJ's side to the first movie. Very cool.
Lady Suneidesis 2005-01-16 ch 6,	abuseHey, sorry it took so long to review. I had to start at the beginning. This is really great! I don't know why I didn't start reading right away. Amaszing job and update soon!
