Oh, wow, this is just amazing! Its very deep, I think, and the perspective you used is original and, just, well, amazing! Great job!

Lovely :) That's all I have to say.

Very good writing. I actually found you through the fanfic 'A Beauty Queen's Guide to Men and Pageants' and I'm glad I did. You might not think this is waffy, but I think so. Likelike, darkWaff. Or emotionalWaff or something like that. Very sweet/moving, I liked how you wrote Misao and Aoshi (their similarities and differences were well portrayed). Felt sorry for the fodder though, but I can't say I blame Maeko for liking him. xD;

Beautiful... *sigh* It was a brilliant idea, wonderfully written.

That was wonderful. I loved it. You deserve a gold star. And a blue ribbon. And a muffin.

beautiful. i love how smoothly and effortlessly everything moves. and the simplicity of everything~ it was all great.
the crickets were a nice touch too. : )

Hey...

This was another awesome read...

Loved the characterization of Shachi and Maeko.. lovely work on Aoshi too in context to children and with Misao... considering this takes place a few yrs after the Jinchuu...

Each repetition of "supposing" complimented the text wonderfully...

The ending was moving and beautiful...

Cya..

Beautiful.

Isn't that just like Aoshi, breaking hearts without even trying. Very well written one-shot. You write with a sense of delicasy and timing rarely found on ffdotnet.

The crickets were a nice touch as well.

This is such a sweet one shot. I love all of your stories because you have such full command of emotions and delivery. No word is wasted and all give some hint of a heartfelt love of writing. Each is so beautiful and moving. You are a truly talented writer.

As always, beautifully and elegantly done. I've always enjoyed your works and while it's rare for an original character to draw me in, this story commanded my attention. Telling the story through Sachi's eyes was unusual and also made me feel for Maeko's plight.

All in all, it's been a treat to read.

Incredible imagery. A wonderful way of disecting the relationship through the eyes of another.

Awesome and thought-provoking. I love reading all of your stories. I loved how you portrayed Maeko through Sachi. It was so perfect - the emotion and loss was almost tangible. I really admire it when authors describe the feelings of the people who don't get the happy ending - it's hard to do in fanfiction cause people tend to only care about the main characters, but you did it very well. Kudos!

wow, this had an artist's touch to it.

awesome. truly awesome. wish there were more misao/aoshi stories like this.
