...And now I'm crying here for Jade. This was wonderful.

This was an excellent story, to say the least. Great job.

Wow, so you're the one that wrote this story and "Sight". You're a pretty darned good writer. I can totally see Jade like this. After all, the mass-replica production made him see the things that Luke perceived...as well as the results of his own errors.

Yeah, I'm a fan of Jade's too. :-) I'm adding this story and you to my faves!

Beautiful.

The Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner eh? I hated that poem! *kills university class*

I'm not really one for serious stories, but I wanted something with Jade that was not Yaoi... anyway this is a good story, even though I haven't played Tales since December.

I think that this captured Jade's essences, I love how he thought it was odd that he was crying.

Aw, Jade's so cute... Okay sorry. ^.^;; Fangirl of Jade Curtiss.

;_; *sob sob sob sob*

I caught a few of your others over on LJ, but I somehow missed this one.

;_; Oh dear.

Wow... This was an incredible fic. I think I can really see jade in there and not just someone slipping into Jade's skin. You write for him really well. You write really well. Don't stop!

It's a wonderful title for a wonderful--and I mean /uber-zomfg-holy-crapzilla-on-a-stick fantastico/--but "Albatross"...? I swear I've heard that word before... Something Tales...

Again, I reiterate your amazingly, infallable ability to portray Jade as we all know him, yet as we've never seen him before. Nine times out of ten, if someone reads that the Colonel even HINTS at crying, a big, red light and a fog-horn buzzer goes off in their head that says, "No! Nope! No way! Jade doesn't do that! Bad, BAD! OoC-ness!" Not here. Adding to that, in most works anyone can usually tell where or how the story is going to end--sometimes word-for-word; not here.

Your endings are actually a SURPRISE. It's been so long since there have been surprise endings as good as this on ::adds to favs::

Omg this story was amazing, you wrote it so beautifully..! I really thought the ending was very moving, I almost felt like crying myself ::nods:: great job I enjoyed it much, keep up the great writing!

Wonderfull way to end the story. 'How odd. I'm crying' Jade must not be used to that. This almost made me cry. The leading up to the end was well done as well. Jade is the adult but from his sarcastic almost silly demeanor I tend to forget that.

...yes, but whatever made you think to look up "Albatross" when looking up titles?

Anyway, poor Jade... kudos to you for giving him more depth. I wonder if you can write a ToA fic without him. :P

YC: wow, loved it. there is just NOT ENOUGH good jade fanfiction out there. this is one of the few good ones. i just wish it was longer. great job!

Aww . . . how sad . . .

But it does seem that way, huh? Luke and the others bear responsibility for their desicions, and Jade is kinda . . . there . . .

I like the title. Fits like a T.

Keep it up.

The fact that I'm geniunely sad accounts for just how well that was written. Poor Jade; then again, from what I've read in the little bit that is the abyss fandom, Jade recieves a lot of the love. ^__^

He's just priceless like that. XD Anyway, a wonderfully written one-shot. I hope that you continue to write in the abyss fandom!
