Amazing short story. I adore how in-character everything is because it reminds me of the way I interpret Rukawa's thoughts while watching the anime. By the way I love the subtle writing style you adopted here. Great!

It must be sad for Rukawa, because he never said anything. I guess...

Its an AWESOME STORY! I LOVED IT... WOT...

(Yup... don't ask... I think I'm hyper...hehe)

But what the hell... we are not talkin' about me... (Even know I want to -childish giggles-) we're talks about YOUR FIC... WWOTT...

Audience: Woah... -claps hand-

It's an interesrting story...

But... (Dundundun...Uh Oh...hehe)

What do you mean "fly"?

Tell me. tell me. TELL ME! I want to know...

(me don't understand -anime tears-)

And anyway...

YOU ARE SO GOING TO MY FAVORITES LISTS (Please do note the "S" on the sentence "listS) hehe...

LANIE lkajdl;fajkljlkasjfkllkjlklL! HOW ARE YOU!?! :D
Such a sad fic. :( I love the ending. :D

I decided to visit this fandom after a while and read this at random.

I like the way you weave your words, they're like the words of a renown poet. Bittersweet end. There's nothing more pleasant than reading a good prose in a dying fandom, kind of sparks up your guttering interest. Keep writing, neh? ^^

Hey Lanie!
Sorry I've yet to reply your post on Babble, I've been pretty occupied with my onging common tests.
But I will do so as soon as I can. Or email! :D

I loved this one too (though I must admit the last paragraphs went a little too fast for me). And the idea that you introduced in your notes is worth pondering upon. I think it manifests itself almostly completely in the relationship between Rukawa and Sakuragi, which I must say you managed to capture really well.

I must say that I loved reading your last three fics as much as I did back when I discovered your first three ones. So painful, so beautiful. Great work!!

Oh such a lovely read. Really, you're probably one of the best authors in this fandom.
