Wow. Roxas is a jumpy little bugger, huh? XD it was funny. Incredibly cute too.

Very nice stroy! :D

Hm, it must suck having people act like that if you have an attack. I mean, it's not your fault. I may not have clautrophobia, but I do have a rather bad case of arachnophobia. I freaked out when I saw this little itty-bitty-2-milimeter long spider crawling across towards me. I just grabbed a piece of paper and squashed him. I felt kinda bad about it later, but honestly, I couldn't breath right and I just wanted the spider to get away.

Another time, I was in my room, playing on my laptop. The lights flickered so I looked up at the ceiling, and there was this spider just stitting on the ceiling above my bed. I jumped off the bed and ran like hell to my mum, screeching 'MUM! There's a spider on my CEILING! Come on! Get it DOWN!' like I didn't know how to say anything else. But my mum simply told me that she couldn't reach it and so I'd have to put up with it. So, I went back to my room and sat on my bed and started playing on my laptop again. But, every ten seconds I would look up to check the spider hadn't moved. Eventually I had to go to sleep, but I took me hours of staring at nothing and paranoidly turning the lights on and off to check it was still there. Eentually, I got to sleep, but when I woke up, the flippin spider wasn't there. So I did one of those choked screams (the ones that sound like a drowning horse or something like that) and ran out of my room. I stayed in the living room all day. T^T

It's annoying, because my mum says there's nothing to be afraid of, and that they're smaller than me, like I don't know that, damnit ><

But I do know that, so it really annoys me when everybody gives me these weird looks if I see a spider, because I can't help the fact that I'm terrified of them.

I blame the spider that hid in my dressing gown and that movie Arachnophobia that I saw when I was eight. D:

Its kinda annoying, cos some people will try and use this to scare me. Once, my dad was making a BLT sandwich. He took the little leafy bit off the top of the tomato, cupped it in his hands, walked into the living room where I was watching tv and said 'Hey Alice. Look, I found a spider!'.

Then he threw it at me.

Because I didn't know it was just a little bit of leaves and NOT a spider, I screamed and scrambled away from it. I then burst out crying. My mum began telling my dad off while he cried. His answer was 'I didn't think she'd believe me'.

...By the way, you can laugh if you want :3

I know how you feel. I get claustrophobic too. I dispise crowds and even small groups of people. it's not fair to be singled out like that...I thought your story was brilliant. You've made me feel better about my own claustrophobia.

what a creative twist! I never would have thought of something like that. Great job. ^^

Even if you thought this story wasn't well written... I loved it. I mean, it's pretty great on the AkuRoku front, ne? Riku and Sora make me LAFF. :D But I thought Axel was pretty awesome in this. And Roxas as a more vulnerable character was interesting too. At first, I thought their love was going too fast, with not enough twists and turns. And then, I realized the gaps inbetween the different 'scenes' and the fact that Roxas' problem was difficulty enough.

I, myself, don't have this type of claustraphobia, but my friend has similar attacks. But, instead of scream, sge starts sobbing. I'm usually the one that hugs her while she cries. (Surprisingly, she finds this comforting...) And, that, my friend, is why I LOBE this story!

cute!

That was too sweet for it's own good. It was just too cute. Ah, I love fluff. I love the ending. I love this entire piece in general! Everything about it... I don't think there's anything I can critique on. C:
I also know what you mean with your claustrophobia... because I have it too. I've actually only had one actual panic attack in my life, but I get /really/ uncomfortable in large groups and can't stand close contact with others. Except I people don't think I'm being a difficult bitch. My friends intentionally push my buttons and pushed me into my first panic attack two months ago. D:
But I digress. I'm glad you wrote this, not only to satisfy my fangirlish hunger for AkuRoku, but also to pacify my thoughts on claustrophobia.

Kya! XD I'm such a sap for fluffy endings! Kudos to you!

That was possibly the most amazing thing I've read in the way of Gay. That was really cute. Thanks for that. :)

I'm claustrophobic as well, and I am prone to episodes like that if I'm in a /really/ small place. It all traces back to a game of hide and seek with my cousin in which he locked me in a linen closet in the space under the lowest shelf. My parents found me passed out. Just this year, my friends told me to see if I could fit in a locker, and by then I'd completely forgot about it till I was in there, and they were closing the door. Some idiot got the idea to put the lock on and I was banging like a maniac until they opened it.

Anyway. Personal quirks aside, thanks for this, again, and keep up the good work!

*siagr;

It's a good story...and everybody has a weakness for fluffy endings. Bad/Sad endings either mean a sequel that has a fluffy ending or it's a story that's meant to be angsty and sad. Those are okay too, but with AkuRoku, sometimes it's a bit too angsty, so fics that are fluffy, like this one, are good. ^^ --Silver

you have to stop writing unless you want to kill me..o.0 but then again, i just love it! XD roxas had claustrophobia (wow, did i spell it right?) really fits! XP i can't believe those people who called such a cutie freak. DX

I love this one. It's really good. Once more you have proved you deserve your own religion. I adore the beginning, and the bit at the party. The characters are really, uh, real! :)

I never would have thought anyone could use claustrophobia like that. I loved it.

Interesting premise.

How will i react if the person i barely know, (or worse, i know very well) get freak out of me?

I don't know. I think I'm a rather affection-starve person, which, everyone who know me could tell, because once i sending message on them, i always do it long, and -hell- a lot of messages at the same time. maybe /that/ makes people freak out of me. (hey, i could make a story from that.)

I'm not doing to people what i don't want them to do for me, and i'm doing what i want everyone to do for me. so, i often hug people close to my heart first, wanting them to hug me first (which, sadly, almost -as in /ALMOST/- never happened, still up to now TT_TT ... maybe when i was a baby, yes, but not as long as i remembered. that's one of the reason i love my father unconditionally, no matter how jerk and cold of a father he was, and still, because he hugged me first in the morning, occasionally. sometimes. once upon a time. but i still remember.)

So, Aili, if you freak out at me, and you explain to me why, i promise i won't look at you as you were crazy, or like you have something against me, or like you're being a difficult bitch. because you're not.

And by the way, this fic is great. i don't like that Sora being kinda antagonist in this fic, but I think his relationship with Riku will balanced that, you know, how he thinking or so. and i love crying-touched Axel, because he was so nice and wish for him to be happy. with roxas, of course. and i truly want Roxas (and /YOU/) to find his One True Love and be happy forever. have find it yet? -_- => as in smiling calmly.

Thank you for share and write this. i really, really wanted to ask for a hug from you, but if i asked and you gave me, it won't be you hug me first. hmh. not like you will gave me, though. just reading your stories, i'm happy.
see you on next review. :3
