Rukuri 2008-08-05 ch 22,	abuseLovely. Lovely, lovely, lovely. Minor, minor spelling mistakes, but only in one or two chapters. Easily missed. The last few chapters made me a little sad, and teary-eyed, but the ending was...magnificent. It's the best ending to a fic I have ever seen/read. And...the way through the whole story, how you used your words. Poetic, and it flowed. Marvelously. How the characters interacted...that was also displayed wonderfully, especially the Cloud/Tifa/Aerith triangle, but it wasn't really a triangle. I like how you paced their relationships, whereas some other fics I've read just plunge straight into it. Love the build up. Thank you very, very much for sharing this, and I'll look out for more~
Daemon hunter 2008-07-10 ch 1,	abuseWow. That's all I can say. This is the first novel length fanfic I've ever re-read and... wow, just wow! I had to re-review. Without question, you're one of the best writers ever to grace this site. I couldn't compare to your talents even if I tried. Your story was so touching and even though I knew what was coming, at the same time I thought it might not, despite having read this before. The way you managed to flesh out Aerith and Tifa's characters without ever once breaking away from the canon is truly astounding. I like how you don't make Tifa angsty and that she understood the gift of life which Aerith left them all. Their fledgling romance too was ever so touching and I'm just sorry to see this over. But there's your sequel, something I think I'll plunge into straight away. I could go into further detail but your epilogue simply blew me away and I can't remember anything that I was going to say. Just know that you are truly gifted in the realm of writing. I don't think I'll ever forget this story and somewhere down the line I'll definitely read it again. And I might re-re-review it too.
Cozmos 2008-07-05 ch 21,	abuseThis is such a wonderful story. You know, I really can't find some necessary graceful words to praise your great writing. It's just fabulous! I love this story a lot; all the events, scenarios, and stuff. I also think the ending is really great. It is not sad, or too happy either. It is just.. right! I thank you very much for sharing this story. You really are a great writer!
LicketySplat 2008-05-19 ch 22,	abuseThis was...so powerful. I've never played the game but I can say that your rendition of it is beautifully written, what's more ending up with Aerith and Tifa together. Everything was well paced, some parts more abstract than others, but I feel that this is your unique style of writing and it works. It really does. There's humor when things are getting serious, a glint of hope for Tifa when things are dismal, laughter and life from Aerith when even I was feeling the world was against me. Your characters are so real and perhaps even tangible, they've been engraved into my mind permanently. Well...I do have much more to say and perhaps, if through some form of technology advanced beyond all genius, I could send you a review with all the emotions I had while reading your story, I would in a heartbeat, because I feel that as a relatively new author myself, you would relish in the knowledge that your story - which you have crafted so masterfully and artfully - has touched me and inspired me tremendously. I've just finished reading your epic and am now going to head off to read it's sequel. I do hope that you'd update it soon. No rush though, everyone has their reasons for not updating. Just know that you've got a loyal fan of your writing here. :) -Lix
Djevel 2008-05-08 ch 22,	abuse... I cried. Like, not tearing-up-a-little cried. I mean like, crying to the point where your throat starts feeling like it's closing it on itself and your head starts hurting because you're trying too hard to hold back the tears. This story was so beautiful, so amazingly written, and the way you conveyed the emotions and feelings of the characters was just so real and life-like that it was like watching it play out right in front of me. And more than that, it was like feeling the pain as my own...which would explain why I cried so hard when Aerith died. I think I may have read this once before, but I don't remember whether or not I reviewed, or finished it. It's been way too long. But I could read this a thousand times and never get tired of it. Words can't express how outstanding this story really is.
CkretAznMan 2008-03-16 ch 22,	abuseoh my gosh (cuz i don't know who the big man upstairs is called)! that was a great epilougue. loved it. i don't know what else to say... you are awesome. only bad thing was is that now i feel that a little part of me died inside, and also emo too.

XxCloudAreithxX 2007-08-02 ch 1, anon.	abuseWhos talkin?
Madcap Minstrel 2007-06-18 ch 22,	abuseI never read shoujo-ai up until this story. I have to say, you've done an amazing job. You've completely won me over. This story is incredibly well-written, and my eyes were completely glued to the screen. I've also read and enjoyed your other stories. Keep up the stellar work!
SecretBox 2007-06-13 ch 22,	abuse** gorgeous. Excuse my language. Gah! This story is what made me fall in love with Tifa/Aerith in the first place.
green.with.envy 2007-06-02 ch 1, anon.	abuseThe first time I read this story I had to read it in a rush cuz I was quite busy, but I just couldn't stop. Now I'm re-reading it and I realized I missed alot the first time around. I love the way you write. You have a way with words. It has so much emotion in it. Someone to somebody. I think everyone can relate to this. The titles for the 1st and 2nd chapters were cute. The Someone and The Somebody. Didn't notice that the first time around. I was kinda wondering whose monologue the prologue was. Now I get it. Guess I'm a bit slow. =P But on to the next chapters!
Hoppy-chan 2007-05-10 ch 15,	abuseAh, this story. This wonderful, painful story. I keep reading, leaving, coming back... This would be my third attempt at finishing it, which I find pathetic. I love it, but the night ends too soon and I have to try to at least look awake, then the next day there are other distractions... Anyway. After re-reading at least 1/4th of it and finally finding my place, here we are again. I'll just review all the chapters with this one, shall I? As I get to them. I'll admit, the nicknames annoy me. Still, they can be ignored easily enough. That loop, with Tseng, Sephiroth, screaming... It's chilling. I love the dreams as much as I hate them. Chapter 16 Gah. Parts of that chapter I remembered, parts I didn't. This is what I get for being gone for so long. Chapter 17 Now this, I haven't read. But I'm worried, so worried. And angry at Cloud, and annoyed with Tifa, and wondering... Chapter 18 Sadness and angst, and death, oh my. I was hoping to avoid the latter, but I suppose that's the price to pay for reading this. Oh- you have a DA? I must go look. But no, not getting distracted, not...gah. ...I got distracted. Okay, I'm back. That one little comparison doodle was amazingly fun. Chapter 19 Hm. I really do/don't want to just stop now. I could save myself the emotional doom sure to follow. But, as I've never played the game, I wonder. Was that part of it? All of that? No, can't be, then...deviation? From the path, I mean. Ah, hope. And...here's the angst. Aerith is extremely perceptive, but to do that and then just leave...I wonder if that would only make it worse. And when Cloud wakes up, who'll snap first? Chapter 20 Oh, box. Gimme a box. Darnit, I don't want this. I really don't. So I will, because hey, I got this far. Cloud's so like a child. They all are, really, all but her, but somehow he manages to annoy me the most. I don't know, it's...hm. Oh...gah. Bad, no, not happening. Not. -insert denial here- Chapter 21 ...So. So. Chapter 22 Oh yes, I cried. And laughed, and spun around (at least inside my head), and re-read the entries a second and third time. That was, in every way, worth it. Is it odd that I'm proud for finishing it? Just...thanks. That was brilliant. ~Naolin
WingedWolf24 2007-04-02 ch 22,	abuseFor the past, i believe four days, i have been reading your story based on the events in FF7, and i must say its beautiful. I've read stories that brought tears to my eyes, but never one that touched me so much, such as yours. To think i was prepared for it was highly at my fault. You wrote a wonderful story, one that i will not forget. So i thank you for bringing this story to life, and that every tear i spilled was well worth it.
nobody 2007-02-28 ch 22, anon.	abuseI'm just happy I found and read this, though I've never played the game myself. Thank you for writing and sharing this with us. Yeah, thank you so much.
