triolet 2008-06-16 ch 1,	abuseWhy did you have to end on a cliff-hanger? It's so cruel. I enjoy your story. It's so unusual seeing Howard having a role. I find your Wu Fei a little aggressive and certainly sweary. It's nice seeing that they miss their battles given that was their lives for so long. Nice use of Quatre's empathy. Finally, poor old Trowa! He's one of my top two but he always gets hurt! Such is life. Keep on writing.
Sharon 2007-07-21 ch 6, anon.	abuseGood story. Your Une is a little bit more psychotic than I remember though, but it's kinda funny. I'd love to see some more...(hint,hint):)
Mousery 2007-05-30 ch 6,	abuseMan I hoe this is updated soon. ^^ I'm really enjoying it so far, keep up the good work!
Uruwashii Inochi 2007-03-11 ch 6, anon.	abuseI've been waiting for a new chappy to come out forever! I was so excited when I saw this one pop up! Great chapter. Can't wait for the next one!
Terra 2007-03-11 ch 6,	abuseThat bit about the protests at the beginning was extremely insightful into the world Quatre grew up in. It's those little details that you include in your story that really flesh out this world of yours and makes it seem painfully real. And Dorothy enters the picture! Heh, you know how fond I happen to be of Dorothy and Quatre. And that twist with Rose being a Catalonia certainly adds more intrigue to this story. I tend to have problems narrating action sequences and am much better at dialogue, but in my opinion, you have just the right blend of both, making it easier for you to hook the reader (and making her wish you'd update sooner!). Great chapter. I hope you'll fix your internet and be back to post more soon.
SkittleGoddess 2007-03-01 ch 5, anon.	abuseWow this is a good fic. Snap, theres so much stuff going on. Trowa..poor Trowa. The Gundam Pilots definitely need to go and kick some ass and show them what they can do. Can't wait to see what happens next.
The Wraith of Saganami 2007-02-11 ch 5,	abuseGah, not a fun place to end. Oh well, I'm over it. You write quite well, and I picked up on the rose metaphor rather early on. Nice touch there. I'm interested in seeing where exactly this is going, so I'll wait for you to update soon. Hopefully that odd thing known as school won't pose too much of a distraction. -Wraith
The Wraith of Saganami 2007-02-11 ch 2,	abuseHmm, interesting set up you have there. The scientific part of my brain is being repressed at the moment to not freak out about the whole mining a comet thing. Otherwise, I am intrigued by what you're doing with the story! Write more please! -Wraith
Terra 2007-02-05 ch 5,	abuseAs promised earlier, I am reviewing the rest of the chapters following the first. I think you're onto something great with this fic. Very few authors bother to deal with the philosophy of GW and the nature of humanity -- that it is nearly impossible to change in so short a time. I may not agree with how you're choosing to portray Wufei and Une, but their characterizations move the story along. Thank you for remembering that Relena has a history with Une, a history involving the assassination of her father. I can't tell you how disappointed I am every time I read a story where the two are chums as if the past didn't happen. I also like what you've done with Quatre. Everyone assumes he's really a pacifist dragged into a war against his will, but no one remembers that he chose it for himself. He is as much a killer as the rest of them. No one who lives on a battlefield for that long can simply just discard that part of him so easily. I do have my doubts about the chances of surviving a head shot and a fall from an airplane hundreds of feet in the air. However, I understand General Septum, much like, Rose, is symbolic; it's about unfinished business and dealing with the past. I do like the insights you've given us through Quatre's younger self's diary entries. I hope you allow him to come to terms with his test tube baby status (or lack thereof) at some point in this story. With that said, I look forward to the next chapter.
Terra 2007-02-04 ch 1,	abuseFinally, someone has noticed that Wufei does not call Duo "baka" every other sentence, that Duo and Heero are not lovers, joined at the hip, or even remotely that close. Finally, someone has noticed that Wufei does not run around yelling "justice" or chases Duo, grabbing for his braid. Or that it's not automatic that Duo and Hilde are sleeping together. Thank you for noticing these things and for writing realistic dialogue. Thank you for recognizing that Quatre and Relena are influential people, practically two sides of the same coin in different places. I especially appreciated the details about the weather functions of a colony -- I'd always wondered. However, I'm not sure that Wufei would be so antagonistic towards Duo. I see him with a much more civilized veneer, albeit in a slightly condescending manner. In any case, I shall endeavor to finish reading the rest of these chapters and will review again at that point.
Mousery 2007-01-27 ch 4,	abuseNice story so far. I'm a sucker for good Quatre-centricish fics. :P I'm glad that that you're also going into all of the pilots as well, it helps the story a lot. nice job, I hope to see more soon. ^_^
aronoiiel 2007-01-25 ch 4,	abusespectacular update! the fight scene was well handled and fascinating little twists poping up. I can't wait for the next one ^_^
Uruwashii Inochi 2007-01-25 ch 4,	abuseI love the little side names they're getting like Ms. I-Am-God Une or the Hero of Justice. They had me cracking up. Great chappy just like the rest. Looking forward to the next one.
RosefaerietaleRed 2007-01-24 ch 3,	abuseInteresting plot and I like the portrayl of the characters. Nice work!
aronoiiel 2007-01-23 ch 3,	abuseThis is a pretty interesting story. Love the tuff Quat ^_^ don't get that as much as I'd like and it was very well handled. I really look forward to reading the next chapter.
