I know it's a good story when my stomach starts to ache. QAQ what a beatiful fanfic you have written! The emotions described are so strong, I can feel it. These two have definitely become my favourite pair. Thank you for sharing this bittersweet story with us! *sniffles*

oh my word...this is the BEST fruits basket story i've ever read..it made me cry so much...i'm completely and utterly shocked that this was ur first story...u truly have a gift :) plz write a sequel, it would mean a lot 2 everyone who's read it

I... I don't really know what to say.

I am a hard man to impress, but I'm a sucker for emotion, and the emotion in this story... I am trying to write through tears of my own. I was deeply moved and deeply touched.

It's hard to find a story for this pairing, and such a wonderful one I have found here. I thank you for providing such a beautiful story.

THAT'S SO SAD BUT I LOVED IT ANYWAY! *cries* *hugs you* THANK YOU FOR WRITING IT!

that was so sad!

*sniff* I like sad fanfics as lo9ng as they're as well-written as this one! I'm glad I decided to read your other stories! (I'm silly and read this after "Reflection on A shattered Mirror" Xp)

i...cried... that was byfare the saddest fanfic i have ever laid my eyes on. that even hit home on me because that is my favorite fruits basket pairin.-raise hand- you rockT_T

that was SO sad

im going to cry now

WAH

What a depressing story. But it would be 's a good story too. And thet's ok too.

so sad... those two would have been a cute couple :P. Whelp, good job _

ADORABLE! I love this story! First to read a Mii/Shigure pairing. I love it!

Wow. I love this pairing, and I have to say that you've done of the finest jobs I've seen. I can't wait for the sequel!

Hm...I title for this one is tricky. It's very well written by the way. I think Shigure was a little OOC in the first part, but towards the end, he was very IC. I love the way you brought the manipulative nature he has in the Manga into play.

Mii is hard to decide on a character for, but I like the way you handled her.

I think my favorite part was how Shigure denied feeling love for her...writing it off as a whim even though he was dying inside. That was just so Shigure! He's my favorite character...so good job!

And do please right a sequel! Here, if it helps convince you to, I'll answer your question! An OAV is a sort of sequel to a series, taking the form of a movie or several episodes. I'm not sure what it would be an abbreviation of though...I've often tried to figure that out myself.

Your story made me cry, by the way. Oh, I do have one title that pops into my head...though I don't know...it might have been taken already. "Tears of The Dog" or maybe "Because I love You"

Yes...I like that second one. "Because I love You" as in, "Because I Love You, I'll Let You Go." or "Because I Love You, I Cannot Live Without You" So you just save title room and call it "Because I Love You"

Oh, MAN! You DO have to write a sequel. This was so...wow. I love this pairing.

Oh! I'm surprised but I rather like this story. I'm such an Akki/Gure writer/reader that I admit. I never really gave much thought to these two before. However, I thought this story was rather good though. I felt so bad for Mii towards the end though. Very nice!
