 l'amour-the-poet 2009-11-23 . chapter 7Okay. This is not one of those reviews where I accuse you of changing my life.
Oh well, it sort of is.
That said, I found your work a few years ago, a while after I first got into the Naruto fandom (I think In Stone was the first thing I read by you). At the time, I think I bookmarked every chapter. I was utterly floored by the fact that fandom had something I wanted to dig into so much more than the manga (which is a regular thing).
Rereading I'm more than floored.
Your characterizations of Naruto, Lee, Sakura, *Gaara* just create characters I can't help but root for. at insane levels. Digging into Sakura's thoughts, inner Sakura, fear and confusions and yes, how Sasuke messed her up and she get's past it, Gaara's psyche, the connection and story you weave between them. I am floored. And your Sasuke, with his passive-aggressive horrifying mind-games. All so spot on and well dealt with that I want to write a searing, pointless rant about how people should not be allowed to write the likes of Twilight in a universe where you are a writer.
I think I'm going to read this regularly. Every week. Because I'm just that happy to see a story written about the BATB archetype that can blow my mind.
Now, if you will excuse me, I am going to check out your journal and see if you have every published something, so I can go binge and buy it all. |

 FlameTwirler 2009-08-08 . chapter 7You know, after all this time, I think this is still my favorite GaaSaku story. Seriously, it's on my regular re-reads and I think I probably get to this one more often than any other. Just pure win. ^_^ |
 litlestamazon 2009-08-06 . chapter 5I love this story. |

 Cherrysinger 2009-05-01 . chapter 3Your writing is...I dunno, there's something about your writing that makes me fall into it. It like consumes me, it's a strange feeling. It's really not like any writing style I've ever come across before; it's really beautiful. It's all about raw emotions and sensations, and I really love that. I can't get enough - please, write more stories! You write Gaara/Sakura really well, honestly I don't like the pairing unless you're writing it. |
 Tsuki no Yume-chan 2009-03-22 . chapter 7Very intense. Your use of imigery and abstract... er, ness, was enthralling. *smiles* I liked it quite a lot. Keep writing, darling! |
 Y0URIMAGINARYFRIEND 2009-01-03 . chapter 7That was absolutely fantastic - I found this fic by accident, and devoured it in a matter of hours. You write the characters perfectly, and the relationships are so realistic...you had me hooked. The whole fic flows brilliantly, and the characters (especially Lee) really struck a chord with me. The plot was perfect, and you managed to keep the more explicit scenes tasteful but still wonderfully raw. I absolutely love this fic, and I wish it could go on forever. Thank you. |
 Dreaming One 2008-05-23 . chapter 7Oh dear GOD. '-_- I saw this one coming from a mile away when she screamed. (No pun intended...oh dear, you've made me blush.)
Great job with this though, the way they had him execute Orochimaru was cruel and brutal and I love that Sakura recognized that they'd hurt Gaara by having him do that. It's all very angsty.
Keep Writing!

 Dreaming One 2008-05-23 . chapter 5'Fingers dug into her flesh, and she yelped. "Ow!"
"Shh. It'll get better."
Another cackle from the kitchen. "That's what –"'
LOL! God, I love Naruto. ^_^ you write him very well. |
 Dreaming One 2008-05-23 . chapter 4"Inner Sakura stormed. You are not going to get relationship advice from Naruto! You are not! I forbid it!
Naruto's in a functional, stable relationship, she replied. Naruto obviously knows something about how things work that I don't. So shove it.
I don't believe I'm doing this, though."
LOL! That is both adorable and...completely hilarious. Naruto is in a stable relationship because Hinata is the most pliant, easy-going creature alive. Otherwise, I'm sure he wouldn't have that claim. '-_- |
 Dreaming One 2008-05-22 . chapter 3Aww, I have to tell you, the end of this chapter just about adorabled me to death. XD |
