bless her, poor thing. i always wondered what it would have been like for her after her husband died. i think you captured it perfectly.

lol, the childishness was funny ^_^ i can just imagine them doing that in a history lesson.

poor Anne, it must have been hard when she knew what was going to happen. i loved the last line put in, it really captured the pain she must feel.

adding in the mask was very intriguing. and i loved the comment about Anne being in the army ^_^

lol, the last comment was priceless ^_^ and i loved how Anne hinted about knowing it was a boy, that was very clever to add.

i liked how you showed Jinpachiro's personality in the letter, lol, i could see the resemblance he has with his son and sister ^_^

I love how you're showing their childhood ^_^ and her respect for nature fits in well with her character.

you've portrayed her character perfectly ^_^ especially her slight silliness with the fan and her usual light hearted nature.

Oh, this is... is... I have no words to describe my utter awe and envy of you.

I LOVE THIS. All eight chapters, from the beginning to the end, I LOVE IT ALL. This was for an RP? The writing is so exquisite, so beautiful! It's so befitting the elegance that is Saki! I love everything about this fanfic, I can't stop repeating that. And if this site would let me do smilies, you'd be seeing a gigantic one right now. :D

All this time, reading these snapshots of these siblings' lives together, I have this feeling of utter sadness, knowing what happens to Jinpachiro. It's so sad to see him as a child, as a brother, as an adult, as a father; knowing he'll soon die!

And my GOD, I feel so ashamed with my Jinpachiro after seeing yours. XD;; I do the guy no justice, but yours is FLAWLESS.

Yeah, so my mind's blank now, except for the worship I have for this fic. WORSHIP, I tell you! Thank you for writing this, it's an absolute wonder to read!

This is very cool! ^_^ I love Saki, hehe.
