I really enjoy this story, and I know it has been a long time since you've updated it at all, but if you are considering picking it back up again, I would be very happy. It's pretty different compared to the usual Rinoa/Squall stories, and I hope you decide to continue writing it.
I read this quite a while ago but I don't think I ever left a review. I liked this story and it hasn't been updated in so long. I was wondering something. Is this finished, abandoned or is there a chance of picking up and continuing?

Just wondering, is there any chance of an update. Or is this story dead? I hope it isn't, since this is one of my favourites.
That was a cheap way to get bunnies in a meadow into your story!
And yt it worked none the less. I was curious how you were going to pull that one off.
It was a very hormonally driven chapter, ill say that much. Whether it was Seifer and Quistis sounding like they wanna mate like rabits are this bit of sexual tension rinoa and squall seem to be dancing around.
Correctoin, rinoa is dancing around while squall stands around in a half dazed stupor.
I cant help but wonder if you will take this in the same directoin as the story by having squall start off as the cold shell that needs to be slowly worn down.
In this particular seting, it certainly would be fitting. Anyways, nice job on the chapter.
Sorry for reviewing so late, I was out all day and I only had the chance to reply just now. Whatever, that probably sounded like some big excuse, but who cares, I was being honest. Besides, I'd rather take my time and go into detail with my reviews anyways.
Now, back to business, first off, I liked the originality of the chapter, you strayed from the typical, morning after 'Oh shit, don't tell me we did it last night!' reaction and in doing so, you've made it a thousand times more realistic, mainly given their inherent natures.
I seriously don't think that either one of them would have been panicking like deranged nuts when they've probably done much worse. Also, I liked their own versions of thoughts of it after the fact. It shows that it wasn't simple lust and that there's always some kind of mental consequence, despite their aforementionned personalities. Not to mention, it adds a nice dimension to things regarding them. God that was good!
Regarding on how they got back, I liked the way you had them think that they were safe but in reality, they aren't, so I expect you to capitalize on that.
The only real problem I had with this chapter was that switch between the Squall/Rinoa scenes and the Quistis/Seifer ones were a little confusing. The lack of names got me confounded during the first switch until there was a mention of volunteering for night shifts. For a moment there, I was like, 'What the hell? When did Rinoa get so obsessive over Squall all of a sudden?'.
Anyways, you have a good day/morning/night and don't worry, I'll always review your updates for this no matter how late you think it is. Personally, I have the same damn problem, I keep on getting less and less responses now-a-days because I can't seem to update in less than three weeks. Ah screw it, people are weird.
Man, reading those 'effect' lines (the parts with no capital letters or formal structuring) really took a toll on me, but it's a rather nice and original way to do things. It effectively captures the essence or being high/drunk by being so intentionally sloppy. I've never been high or drunk, but I can imagine that's how it feels like. So kudos on that!
The way you're taking things is getting to be really interesting, more so than ever, and I kinda like the idea behind Quistis' addiction for Seifer, I immediately caught on to the parallels between her problem and a regular addict's. Well played, it shows that there's many types of addiction and it doesn't always have to be a substance per say.
As for Squall and Rinoa, it's kinda cool to see that he sees something in her to want to take her to get drunk, rather than the normal 'She bugs him, he bugs her, they fall in love' scenario. Plus I can't wait to see what happens later between the fact that they're not in the rehab center and because they didn't use any protection when they did it. Call it cliche, but wouldn't it a huge kick in the pants if she was to get pregnant?
...You can ignore that.

I like that the story finally started to quicken the pace. The last few paragraphs were a bit difficult to understand, but everything else was fine.
I kind of had a feeling it was going in this direction. You really are playing up the Seifer Quistis part aren't ya?
The chapter seemed ok, but everytthing after 'the clinical prison' was kinda hard to read. I'm assuming it was done intentionally for a writing affect i dont particular understand?
No problem with the free advertising, though im not sure how much it helped considering what my own hit numbers are at this point.
the bunny situation... Maybe there could be a bunny on a pillow, or a bunny hops through a forest, or maybe one of the barmaids eats a raw bunny or something.
