This is going on my favorite stories list. Definitely. Wow. I love the way each character was portrayed. (Portrayed...ew school word.) Aw poor Riku and Namine. [ That seems pretty true though, for each person, like that would probably be how they would feel and act.

Poor Nam. Poor Riku. Excellent.

That was so angst. Liked it. I am not really a fan of angst because I'm a hyper girl and always loves to make people smile. Hope I'm doing that with you. Still, nice angsty one shot. Great job!

Really nice angst here, interesting take on the characters. I like drawing too, and it's true what you said; you can just omit all the sad stuff out of a picture. Of course, that sort of defeats the purpose if the artist is going for realism. This fic was a bit depressing, but not over the top.

I loved the line at the beginning, where it said that he made her feel safe... that is such a wonderful feeling...

And what you said in the author's notes - sometimes when I'm walking down the hall and I smile at someone, I think about how much I smile just to be polite, and I don't really mean it... and how much I smile and actually mean it.

But, I really did like that, because pictures are phony. YOu have such creative ideas... Part of what I love about reading your work is what you write about.

aww, that was sweet..

..and oh, iroony.

cus y'know, namine's pictures come to life in the game (or, at least i think they do...) and here they're all phony and...yeah. gah, i'm rambling too.

nice angsty one-shot. :D

I like the ending : )

I've never thought about that before. I love it when I read something that makes me think.

OH!

Whoa... that was awesomely depressing, I love the angstyness of it, Nice!

I was moved. I don't know if I want to applaud or cry. Please write more soon.
