I'm back! Sorry for staying away so long but... well I had a review for this story at like one at night but then my foot hit the power button. ...It's true! no need to make that face! *pouts*
So I'm 'celebrating' returning to school with reading and reviewing your awesome story. It's not really a celebration because school is annoying but reading Brindlewood is always fun.
Before I begin I have a question. Is Brindlewood Manor a place that I should know about? I googled it and got a lot of pages for retirement homes. So I was just wondering. I'l probably do more digging to find out.
One more note. I have decided that it's just not happening for me to comment on every single line of writing. I would go mad. And I was attempting to be funny but I think I failed miserably and I am not a funny person by nature. So that's not really going to happen. From now on I'll probably comment on more broad things. Oh! Since your an English Major (which I think is very cool by the way) your writing is structurally sound. Grammar, spelling, punctuation etc. which is great because the most I might be able to catch is spelling and you probably have a beta and yourself who's better than me by light years on all the annoying basic thing. Which is great because reading something where every fifth word is misspelled is ** the eyes and brain. Hmm. I had a point with this... Ah. So pretty much all I'll be able to comment on is the amazingness of the content. Yes amazingness isn't a word. It should be though. 'The state of being amazing.'
Let's begin.
Great quote. Where do find these things? Quotes I mean. Do you just remember them from books or some other piece of literature? Or do you have one of those quote a day calenders?
Muddy Nag. Good name for a pub.
Should it be pub's grub rather than pub grub? Sounds nice either way.
Phantom Pie Thief. What a good title for Duo, self proclaimed 'God of Death'. Quite a step down. ^.^
Black Hole of Calcutta? Is this something I should know too?
Hell's Kitchen. Ahh good memories of that T.V. show.
Can you frown storm clouds? I wonder if someone like Poseidon could?
I like the way you wrote out the accent. Makes it easier to remember.
Wow. Slightly cold there, Heero?
No one really likes each other, do they? Only Relena genuinely likes Heero, everyone else just kinda hates him.
Can you really open a lock with a hair pin?
If I looked up Sagheer in an Arabian dictionary would it tell me something meaningful?
I can't believe Relena doesn't even question i/why/ Heero knows Arabic. I would.
Catherine's a man-eater.
Why would Heero have to un-relax Quatre? He wants Quatre to be wary and scared of him so he can work alone?
Quatre is Heero's friend? Right
I can totally picture those stairs.
Otto is not a basket of sunshine and daisies according to the post man. I wonder why.
Heero knows the Count... that makes Treize sound like a vampire. oh well. The tension builds. Duh duh duh!

Hello! I'm just a random person whose too lazy to login! I've decided that I want to review every single chapter. Now this is kinda pointless considering that Bridlewood hasn't been updated in like five years. But still. It'll be fun. I doubt that anyone's going to actually read this so I'm going to be pretty much rambling, random stories will pop up, I'll complain, I'll Ooh and Aah. Stuff like that. But I'm going to start with complaining. Mot actually to you or anything, just generic **. I discovered this fic like... two days ago. So I was all excited that you had this whole website and stuff, right? Well it had shut down like... a month before. It was depressing, I was so close! Ah well.

So anyway, I have the review window open while reading so a lot of the review will be stream of conscience (is that right?). And Begin!

Where do you people get the quotes? They're awesome! Is there like a website, or do you just use your awesome author powers to remember random quotes?
Y'know Relena bashing can get old. So I kinda like the fics that give her a past and flesh her out a bit. Thank you!
When you say impossible to live with, does that mean like she was bitchy or something?
How do people /feel/ they're being watched? It's most certainly a skill I don't have!
So Relena's underaged? That's why she doesn't have the title?
Gavotte? Ah, a French dance. Online dictionaries are awesome.
They had lighters back then? huh
When shown money many will forget past wrong doings, I guess.
Passive aggressive, is that right? I still don't fully grasp the concept. But it seems that the high rollers are per usual, excellent at taking a swipe at someone while still staying in the bounds of polite conversation.
62 rooms! Dang, who needs that kinda space?
Yay! Quatre! He's awesome.
Uh huh, Relena. That was /completely/ platonic. ^.^ Though I don't really see the Quatre/Relena going on.
Maybe a break could go between Relena's thinking and Heero's? Though it's not really a break in time so *shrugs*. It just felt weird.
*snort* Heero besotted with Relena. I don't think he has the emotional capacity... yet.
Ah Heero, perfect as always, even with tea!
Ooh threatening Otto, Relena! though I doubt that she could actually go through with that threat. It sounds like the estate is /just barely/ being kept up.
Uh, polishing silver in your spare time Heero? That's not strange at all...
Yeah Relena's got it bad, though it'd be interesting to see if Heero could actually cook...
So Otto doesn't like the new servant... do I sense a battle of epic proportion? well maybe not epic considering it needs to be kept from Relena's eyes but certainly some hazing.
Hmm. So it sounds like Quatre some like noble person. Can't wait to read the next chapter!

Ta!
TMT (not like the stupid daytime tv show)
^.^

Wow--I've just spent my entire weekend reading this, and what a ride! Too bad it ends on such a cliffhanger, but it was a great journey getting here. Thanks for sharing this, and I do hope you will update again some day, and at least rescue poor Heero from his dungeon of starvation...

I love this story I wish you would complete it :( xx

OK so I read this story a year ago, and was just going through my favourites and remembered it. Even though you'll probably never read this, just wanted to say thanks for the awesome two weeks I was reading this, I fondly remember it as one of my favourites. There doesn't seem to be as many long fics around these days, it seems every second thing is just a one-shot, mostly about OOC **. Thanks for the experience while reading this fic, I love the way it's written and everything about it really! :)

first of all, sorry for any grammar mistakes: english is not my mother linguage
second, this is a massive work, the kind i wish i can write one day
congrats
realizing that it´s been a long, long time since the last advance in the story, i also express the sadness of not knowing how it´s going to end
anywho, thank´s for two weeks of very appealing reading
with wishes of the very best in your life,
cassia

Hey. New reader here... well, I'm sure you get tons of people begging you to write a new chapter, so I'm not gonna do that. That one author's note you put in, about "A month ago I still had a grandfather and good health" really hit home (two years ago, I still had an uncle, a grandmother, and a healthy grandfather.) I know how hard life can hit, so I just wanted to say I think you're brilliant, your story's brilliant, and if you ever need support you've got a loyal fanbase.

^_^

great story! Adding to favorites. Lol, I can't believe people couldn't guess who the pie thief was...

Wow. It took me two weeks to finish Brindlewood Manor. This is honestly one of the best works of fanfiction I have ever read. Is there any hope you'll ever continue this story? Even if your writing style changed drastically within these four years, I'll still be interested in reading. Heck I'll continue to read Brindlewood even if there were spelling and grammar errors in every other line of text.

As I said in my email, I've fallen in love with this fic. It is a spectacular piece of artwork that will always be my favorite.

Much thanks for this!

Please PLEASE update!

I'm really enjoying this fic so far! I'm kind of sad it is so long coz that means I can't read it all in one sitting. :)

All I have to say, all I can say, is WOW. I seriously have stopped everything else to read this story and ITS NOT DONE! Please oh please continue! The plot is so deep and rich, and its so nice to be reading GW fanfiction again.

Funny how the she has been off the air for years now, and yet there are still people sitting here reading this stuff. You have to conitinue to keep the Gundam Wing legacy alive in this age of new anime.

I love this story! I love the slow romance! It's awsome! And Im sorry this is the first time I'm reveiwing. But I have to object about some thing. The cat that sired Anna-Maria's kittens can't be tortishel. Tortti's are a genetic weird spot, the are always female, or if they are 'male ' in the sense that they have a ** they are born with out **. So a tortishel cat will always be female as will a Torti point. My mom raises exotic persians and himilayans so thats some thing I learned fairly early.

So, are you comming back? Because I really enjoy this fic and I was just... wondering... if, you'll finish?

All the good author's have seemed to have dissapeared. Bummer.. but I haven't really been on ffnet for a lo~oong time either, but everything I used to have read has been... halted.

Well, I'm just rambling but I hope you come back and finish :D

Later!
