Aww, I...I think I'm gonna cry, that was so sweet...I loved the end, with them all together again! *beams, still crying* -HR1993

this was a nice, although sad, story.

You really should write and publish you're own original works. And if you do, please leave a note for me (I'll be writing fan-fiction till I die or the world ends...) because I would love to read them.
The reason I feel the need to say that is because I don't cry very easily. Oh sure I get teary from time to time and I'll... leak for the lack of a better description, if the story is right. But rarely do I ever get so drawn into a story that I actually cry... as in cry real tears and get all blotchy and stuffed up and needful of something to stuff my face into to suppress any sobs that might try to weasel their way out. I don't cry easily, which is a good (or bad, depending on how you look at it) thing because I do not make for a pretty sight.
So yeah, you managed to evoke a genuine reaction out of me and not just a shallower 'oh that was funny' or 'oh that was sad' reaction.
So yeah...
On the story, aside from my reaction, it was very well written. And adding the bit from A Little Princess was really striking. As soon as I heard the name Rama I was scratching my head trying to think of why it was familiar.
The powerful sense of grief the first chapter gave was thankfully not diminished at all by the hopeful and oddly supernatural note the ending gave. What the ending really did for me was give a bit of satisfaction. That yes, things will not always end happily, but there is always hope. And you could have even ended on Heero's death and it would still have been fabulous... though I'm grateful you didn't.
So yeah, sorry for this super long review and I hope it makes sense as it is 4:30 in the am here and I should be sleeping and the tears you reduced me too have made me even more sleepy... did I mention I don't cry easily? I'm impressed.
So goodnight, please keep writing, I'm going to check out your other works, and please, if you ever do get some work published drop me a note with the titles so that I can quickly find the nearest bookstore.
Cheers!!

i actually cried harder at the second chapter.. it is so incredibly moving. and touching. there is nothing more i can about it :3


actually, this is my re-read and i'm still in tears.. (i'm surprised that i didn't review it before- i thought i had haha)


beautiful. loved it.

I probably should not have read this right after reading Dyna Dee's "The Call," which made me cry like a baby. But I hadn't noticed you added the Epilogue after the first time I read it, so naturally I had to read the whole thing again, sobbing the whole way through the since I knew what was coming. Then I checked and realized I hadn't reviewed. The first part is just brilliant and heart-wrenching and everything else the previous 258 people before me probably called it.

The second part is new to me, and it definitely made me cry a little more knowing that Heero had to live -so long- without peace. I mean, yea, he had the other guys, that's nice. But the final section with the really young boys at school? I was just a teeny bit confused--is it the afterlife or reincarnation? I suppose it's the latter, but I just wasn't sure since they all had the same names and recognized each other and whatnot.

A final note: Perhaps it's because my mind recalled the actual scene from 'A Little Princess' while I re-read it, but my mental image of Heero drawing the circle around Duo and the bed probably won't fade for a long time--and I think that's a true testament to how amazing this story is. ~SLP

I hadn't expected anything of this when I decided to pick this one to read. Considering I was going through a wildly shifting spectrum of moods thanks to PMS, I wanted some light and sweet to ease me to sleep.

This was anything but. At the end of this, I found myself sobbing wildly because I knew Duo was going to die, I knew why he wanted this way, I even agreed with him, but...But...

Your writing is beyond excellent and you've made a life in words. Even though I'm still crying...I feel steadied as well.

Thank you for writing this.

Oki, so I know you've written this story ages ago, but I just had to comment...
Beautiful.
There is no other word to better fit this story than that. I cried...a whole lot at the end of chapter one and all through chapter two...and I'm stil crying to be honest, but I loved it!!
You are most definitely a brilliant writer! I'm definitely looking into more of you stories!

Fire: ... Well, that was certainly well written. From one writer to another you really know how to envelop your words tightly with vibrant emotions. You are very talented.

Randa: I will never be able to listen to 'Into the West' by Annie Lennox without thinking of this, it really does fit. Great job!

Wonton: I got this really tight feeling in my chest, tears in my eyes, but I didn't cry. This is odd for the mere fact that I'm prone to just start crying, but for some reason I just couldn't. Wonderful.

Ice: I'm crying, I won't deny it. Even the epilogue made me cry, not because it was sad rather because it was just so emotional. Simply brilliant is this piece.

Absolutely amazing- I really enjoyed the nostalgic feeling I got throughout the entire story. Keep up the good work.

I didn't cry at the end of chapter 1, I was expecting that ending, but chapter 2 had me crying almost from the beginning. Such a bittersweet story. I like the happy ending though.

I don't even know the original story, but I was bored so I clicked on this. I cried! I cried, realized there was a part two, got over my tears, read part two, and cried again! Wonderfully written. Absolutely amazing. I'm going to go read it again a few more times.

Well done and touching.

YOU made me cry. That NEVER EVER EVER happens in stories. Only Disney movies make me cry. (don't ask) *wipes face* that was wonderful and depressing all at the same time. *still crying* ugh now my face is gonna be purple. the joys of being a redhead. that was really heart wrenching. like really. beautiful but heartwrenching. So I have one unanswered question. What killed Duo? I mean how did he get poisoned? And was it three years worth of poison or did it just happen in the few days before he showed up? Idk maybe I missed something reading that, but I can't figure it out. And where were the deer to save Duo?? Huh?? :p I really liked that. Even though i'm kinda depressed now. I have to go read something happy now. Ugh purple face. Proof! Proof that you made me cry!!

Excellent! I can't think of anything else to say but excellent!

Awesome Story! It's so beautiful and I loved it.
