C.S. Bernard 2008-07-13 ch 30,	abuseI did not read this thing for the longest time. Largely because I felt it was completely centered on Animal Crossing: a gaming series that I have passing knowledge of, i.e. not enough to "enjoy" the story. BUT, I've been trying to work myself back into reading and writing fiction, again, and I enjoy your work, so I figured I'd give it a try. On some levels, and this is coming from a fellow that has written nothing but Sonic stories for his account, I think Sonic simply stole the show. I mean it really felt as though the blue speedster was the star, not the Animal Crossing cast. So, I agree with your earlier opinion: this should be put in the games crossover section, rather than Animal Crossing. It's not "Animal Crossing-Centered" if you will. With a bit of shame, I have to admit that I think some of the more "dramatic" or "tear-jerking" moments were cliched. The Nooklings were cute. But, they were almost "melt your teeth cute" at some points. The wish scene, for instance. One thing that bugged me about the heavily "Sonic" nature of the fiction was the fact that a lot of the characters were ignored/watered down. Ironically, though Patrick IS notorious for a lack of brain power, this was almost too much. It definitely killed the mood of certain "sad" or "tragic" moments: even to the point of making Patrick seem insensitive. Although, when I thought about it, Patrick does seem rather difficult to write at times, especially when I went over a few episodes in my head. So, I'm not trying to be mean. But, you definitely had the potential for greater success with the character. Also, on the note of the "Spongebob" characters: what about their aquatic nature? I don't think you covered the fact that, for the better part of the story, the three sea creatures were constantly exposed to dry air. Something that even the absurd and ridiculous "Spongebob" Show, itself, often uses for great comedic effect. If anything, I would have been happy if you at least had Sponebob and Patrick sleep in bathtubs at night to "replenish" themselves. Two things already told me who the main villains would be with two scenes: the introduction of Plankton and the capture of Sonic - "imperial enemy number one." I did love the re-used joke about Plankton getting stepped on - the first time that Spongebob met Mr. Krab's arch-competitor. I've not played any Ratchet and Clank games, but what I've seen from cutscenes and ads, he doesn't seem as "edgy" there. I could be VERY mistaken, but his personality seemed more militant rather than his "usual" quirky, over-confident and humorous self. Although, the sarcasm had a pretty good ring to it. ;-) As for the Ape Escape characters: I have nothing to say since that was a franchise that never really interested me much, at all. Sorry, that's just personal prefences. ^_^; Now, I am HIGHLY aware that you like to make the characters your own and you CLEARLY said that your purpose was to redesign most of the characters in such a way as to make the story you were writing work for you. But, I wouldn't be much of a reviewer or admirer of your work if I didn't come out and say that you may have made some "bad" choices along the way. As far as most of the characters go: I think that, if left "as they really are," I think a lot of the humor you were going for would have been better achieved. I was actually a little saddened that you didn't include Dr. Nefarious's habit of "freezing up" whenever he lost his temper. The fact that he has that habit - as I read about it - would have been quite comical in its own right. The same goes for Spongebob and Patrick's "weakness" with dry air. I am very pleased and impressed, though, that you brought the story to its completion. It was good, probably could have been better, but you saw it through. I am always happy to see a story brought to its full circle, regardless of how great or poor it is. Because, that at least shows the effort of the writer. In short: if I had to grade this, the story would get a 3 out of 5, but your efforts would make it a full 4 out of 5. Congrats, and keep on writing! =3
