CakuRamen 11/19/12 . chapter 1I love this fic because it gives both people a certain humanity, like despite their different sides, they don't hesitate to help each other. I like it when those unlikely collaboration-friendships form. And your writing style is great too, always a pleasure to read! |
Guest 7/2/12 . chapter 1 That. Was. Beautiful. I'm wasn't really sure something like that would've happened, but when I saw two characters that I love fighting together and getting along (kinda ) I realized it didn't matter. Seriously, I loved that. I liked your portrayals of them; their reasoning and reactions and stuff, and the weird humor and irony (and mental-image-epic-ness) that was there for the whole encounter. I mean "GASP! An Ishin Shishi and Shinsengumi NOT actively trying to kill each other?" |
jau0062 8/1/10 . chapter 1That was so good! I love Okita he is so cute I love Okita/Kenshin fics! |
sirensbane 5/17/10 . chapter 1Okita is amazing, and we don't usually hear a lot about him. Thanks for writing this; I enjoyed it very much. And let me say it again: Okita is amazing. |
skepsis66 2/1/10 . chapter 1You've got style when writing. There's no overly complex language, no metaphors flooding the text. All of the emotions come across so clearly in this story; of Kenshin's gradual change, Okita's courage, and Saito's steely belief, even when he is only briefly mentioned. Wonderful fic! |
Jellybean06 10/4/08 . chapter 1Very interesting. Kenshin would definitely be the one to do something like this. I always like well thought out stories with Okita :) |
tcl7189 5/28/08 . chapter 1Cool plot. I can totally see Ken doing this, especially after Tomoe's death... |
kokoronagomu 12/25/07 . chapter 1amazing. and i'm sure, very IN character. the choice: men with no honor / an honorable warrior. thank you, ginny |
Jill 12/2/07 . chapter 1 a very original story my only complaint is that it ended :P |
ferryboat George 10/15/07 . chapter 1Oh, I loved that. I'd kind of like to see Saitoh's face when Okita tells him what happened :P |
Switchblade237 5/27/07 . chapter 1Interesting situation,and interesting outcome - I loved your ending to it. Your characterization throughout was very good as well - definitely a fave - |
J.J.M. Fisher 5/22/07 . chapter 1You are a very talented writer. I truly enjoyed this story, especially the conversation between Okita and Kenshin near the end. It was very well done. |
TrisakAminawn 1/21/07 . chapter 1Oh, I liked this. And, hm, well, I think I noticed two grammar errors in this one, but the only one I can find now is in the note at the beginning, when you said 'before Kenshin lay down his sword' when it should of course have been 'laid,' since it's the verb 'to lay' not 'to lie,' and it takes a d in the past tense. I probably didn't need to say all that, but oh well. You did ask. You were very convincing about the stews. Generally convincing, actually. Heh. There was one unclear point, though - Okita hadn't recognized Himura until the yakuza said his piece, or had he? |
Hidari 12/18/06 . chapter 1This is brilliant! |
