abuseVery nice chapter.

As usual, Helga's interaction with the other characters is wonderfully done.

abuseHoly crud, I don't often feel strongly for the characters in a story, but I'm definitely on Arnold's side in this one. Reading all this Derek and Helga stuff makes me want to scream, but as the same time, I like the character. Derek is fun and believable. Hope to see an up date. :)

abuseThe drama has intensified and I'm thoroughly entertained by it. What has Arnold got planned to thwart off his competition? I'm hoping to find out soon. I promise I will look at your site when I have the chance. You never fail to amuse me with your great writing abilities. Keep it coming. Never stop writing.

abuseWell done. I loved Arnold's reactions to Derek. I'm enjoying his jealous plight. I'm thinking the same thing Arnold is though. There's something Derek's hiding from Helga...and of course it's got to do with Viola. Can't wait to see what's next. Keep up the great writing.

abuseOoh...can i just say i freakin loved the whole scene and conversation about ice cream and sandwiches, if my mother wasn't asleep in the next room I would have been rolling on the floor in giggling hysterics, my husband probably looking on in absolute horror, and my cat hiding under the desk nearly scared to his deathbed. Yes, if she wasn't asleep I really would be rolling...anyway, as for the rest of the chapter...it's okay. haha, okay it was great! I loved it! I can't lie! And Roses next? WHOHO!

abuseOkay...I feel kinda guilty. Because I've started reading "The Compromise" about three times, but never seemed to get around to finishing it, even though I definitely finished "Ruthless." So...I just wanted to tell you how awesome your fic is.

In a really, really, belated fashion. Especially since you've heard from me on numerous other occasions, with other fanfics. Regardless...it rocks my socks. In all seriousness, it truly does.

The characterization is positively wonderful, I love how you've developed the characters since we last heard from them, and Derek really is a brilliant Original Character. You've brought him to life in a way that makes him just as real as the original Hey Arnold characters, as if he was there all along. Also, I've really enjoyed the fact that you haven't made anyone specifically the "bad guy," except for in the case of Viola. And even so, the meanness in both her and Leslie's personalities seems real and not contrived; the way real teenage girls would spitefully act.

And another thing that makes me immensely happy is the fact that you made Gerald accepting of Helga, instead of any negative extreme, and you kept Lila from becoming the stereotypical story-scapegoat-witch. You made her sincerely likeable, and through the use of all the side characters as well as Arnold and Helga, the story's moved along at a fun, realistic pace.

Lastly, I checked out the images you placed on your website for the story, and many of them surprised me in just how much they looked like the way I imagined the characters. Particularly Lila's, Phoebe's, Leslie's, Erika's, and Arnold's. I was truly surprised by how much your image of "Arnold" resembled what he would look like in real life, all football-headedness aside. And Gerald's image brought a smile to my face--I definitely approve, and from now on I will forever see him without the stack of hair. I think I prefer your version. --Wide Grin--

Cheers--you did a great job with this fic. And it really shows.

abuseHahaha, dude! I saw Suburban Legends at Down Town Disney when I was fourteen. I thought they were cute so I made my mom buy me the CD... And, you know, I enjoyed their music...

Although, since then I've moved more times than I care to recall and seem to have misplaced it... how sad.

But thanks for reminding me of them!

Oh... Right, this is a review for your fic, not your music taste... I enjoy it! Great stuff. A few itty-bitty typos, but nothing major.

OMG! I lOve the Georgia Nicholson books! Dude. Seriously. Amazing.

Anyway.. I'll just stop the review now. Maybe I'll say something half-way productive in another one for some other chapter.

abuseAww!! I loved the Little Mermaid-ness of the last chapter...Viola's such a **...I knew a girl like her once..I used to work with her. She made me so mad one time, i forget what she said...but I just walked up and popped her in the face. No lie. I also got fired. But it was worth it. Lol.

I love the drama you set up, with Helga making plans with Arnold, then just forgetting them, the minute Derek asks her to do something. That's greatness, because it's going to blow up on her, I can feel it.

Um...you gotta do something, fast...because even though I have this little niggling in the back of my mind, telling me not to trust Derek completly, i'm really starting to like him. MAKE ME HATE HIM! I'm faltering in my Arnold/Helga shipping for this fic, and that's not allowed to happen! GAH!

OMG, P.O...you don't even know. My little brother got me hooked on Avatar too. At first I was like...eh. No, thank you. Hey Arnold's the only cartoon that i prefer to be still addicted to at 21...(and Doug, but that's our little secret!) but then he like...gave me no choice, but to watch it with him...and I totally LOVE it...i'm obsessed. I'm even writing an Avatar fic...though I haven't updated it in like...ten months. and the movie? blew my mind. I was so happy Katara and Aang got together...I wish Suki would take a flying leap, so Sokka can be with toph when she's a bit older...but other then that...and as cute a couple as Zuko and Mai make, i'm still a Mai/Ty Lee fan all the way...(i know, I know...it's Nick, so there would NEVER be any girl/girl-ness allowed...but I read a fic where they were together once, and I was hooked...lol.)

but i'm going to stop rambling about avatar now...except to say once more how much I love it. It's awesome.

just like ur story! love it!
