AMAZING I'M YOUR FAN PLEASE CONTINUE WRITING FAN FIC. thank you very much(polite bow)^^ |
 liquidity 2009-05-30 . chapter 2Absolutely stunning. You captured their individual personalities spot on, and it was fun to read both their thoughts. Though it's been several years, it would be nice to read a chapter 3 one day. Excellent story! |
 Laimielle 2008-11-22 . chapter 2Well, here I am again, leaving another review. (I'm not stalking you, I swear!) I just felt that I should. Even though this isn't particularly angsty, it still made me cry like a friggin' baby. I'm not sure why, though. I wish I could figure out what it is that moves me emotionally. Um, anyway...
The obvious differences in Kaoru's and Hikaru's journal entries symbolizes how unique they are. Sometimes, it's hard to see through a person's physical appearance. People tend to associate that with what they're like on the inside. That's probably why pretty people are treated better than not-so-pretty ones. As unfortunate as it may be, being shallow is in most human's nature...
Sorry! I'm getting off topic. Anyway, the point is, the contrast between Hikaru and Kaoru is astonishing. I love how you showed that in the differences of writing style. Kaoru's entry had a lot of emotional depth. Hikaru's was more of a factual account of events. Although it displayed a lot of emotion, too, Kaoru's was much more insightful to the inner workings of his mind.
A couple of my favorite parts: At the beginning, when you wrote about their mother thinking of her sons as just...well, one son in two forms, was brilliant. These are legitimate issues that I'm sure a lot of twins have to deal with. Even though I don't have a twin, and therefore can't completely relate, I feel like I'm as close to questioning my identity as a twin as I can possibly get.
Another thing that I really loved (Which made me even more emotional than I originally was) was the part when Kaoru saw the photograph of themselves and the tear stains on it. Up until then, their mother's dominate personality trait was the absence of a personality. It seemed like she was completely indifferent to the depth of her son's relationship. I like how you included that human side of her. :)
I should also comment on the symbolism of the Mannequin Garden. The way you combine so many things, like the garden, the carriage, the pumpkins, and the keys to the inside of their garden does wonders to add to the story positively. The intricate manner in which you weaved all of these things is amazing. :) You kept my interest thought out the whole thing. The flow of things seemed really natural. There was never a thought in the text that didn't belong or anything that left me unsatisfied. It was a pleasure to read. :D
I loved it. ^_^ |
 twistedpearls 2008-11-07 . chapter 2I loved this, it was amazing- I adored the line "I want you forever" |
 Sayoko-chan09 2008-09-23 . chapter 2^-^ i like it alot...but what is chapter 3 gonna be...?!?!?!?!?!? and you really should write it soon cuz that would be awsome! |
 Jayrin Paige 2008-09-11 . chapter 2*whistles* You've really given me an insight into Hikaru's mind! And Kaoru's! Wonderful story/journal of the twins! |
 clueless nu 2008-04-28 . chapter 1This has got to be the most gorgeous Hikaru/Kaoru fic I have ever read in the whole of this archive. You've truely captured which of the boys individually and together and even in the glimpses of the rest of the Host Club you really show a true understanding of them. I adore this and while I'm doubting that the Chap. 3 that was mention will be posted considering the time since Chap. 2 was posted I will ask and beg to see more. |
 Shinimegami7 2008-04-16 . chapter 2This is so pretty! The first Host Club fic I've ever read... and coincidentally, the song "Not gonna get us" by Tatu just started playing... hee hee hee. Awesome fic. |
 Harada Risa 2007-12-08 . chapter 2Oh wow...what can I say? This is perfect! You caught the twin's personality perfectly! They were talking about the same thing but with completely different views! I really like the way you thought of the "Mannequin Garden" ^^;;
There were a couple of typos here and there but nothing too bad! Good job on the fanfiction though! |
 Mikky-mail 2007-11-05 . chapter 2OMG... that was so beautiful...
very well written, this HikaruxKaoru fic is cool, are u going to update? ^_^ |
 Crimson Vixen 2007-10-06 . chapter 2very beautiful and touching. I'm adding to my favs! Hikaru and Kaoru were writing so perfectly in character - they both talk about the same things but in different ways that were just so THEM! I applaud your perfection, keep up that amazing work |
 uruwashii uso 2007-09-18 . chapter 1I read this the first time you reviewed one of my chapters .. I can't remember which .. but for some reason forgot to leave a review of my own.
Being an enthusiastic twins fan, there was nothing I didn't love about this fic. Kaoru's journal was so touching, and emotional, and .. I'm pretty much speechless, as I can't think of the words to properly convey my thoughts. Oh, and the fact that you used bits from Bokura no Love Style won you brownie points too. XD
As I've said before, and undoubtedly will say again, you're amazing. Your writing style is one of a kind and the way you capture Hikaru and Kaoru alike is uncanny.
Mm. Yes. I must stop before I make a fool of myself.
Thank you for writing this. |
 Graceful Crisis 2007-07-22 . chapter 2Definatly worth the wait! I loved every bit of it. Especially the part about Kyouya. I can't wait for the next chapter. Much love. |
 thoughtless dreamer 2007-07-14 . chapter 2I enjoyed reading this very much. I love these stories where, in letter format, two people share a conversation. But to be honest, this is the best of them that I've read.
You captured both of the twins' personalities perfectly, and wrote in such a style for each that you could tell which was writen by Kaoru and which was writen by Hikaru. The way you connected past events into the present flowed really well, and you portrayed their feelings very well.
This story is definately a favorite; thank you so much for sharing this wonderful work.
