LanaLangKent 2007-12-21 ch 13,	abuse! what can I say...? Except...beautifully written. Each word fits exactly right; each word is so poignant and bittersweet and exactly like the thoughts in my head and everything in this chapter makes sense. I feel bad for Sammy, because Callie can never get over Tallis because true love never dies and Callie will never love Sammy that way. Not that she should; hurry up with the reunion of Callisandra and Tallis! Phrases you wrote that are just perfect: "“I guess the reason why, is because things like breaking curfew or sneaking out of the house is child’s play for me. I like to break bigger rules, you know, those type of rules that may even be-” He lifts his hand up carelessly and touches her chin, the mere contact alone sends a shiver up her spine, but not a good one in the least. His hand is cold, and his eyes are devoid of emotion except for this little spark she can’t quite place. If she knew the word, she would have called it malice. “Illegal.” " "Things change, and slowly, what we were taught to believe in seems to be far from the truth with each passing day." "How can they ever be a family again? How can he, and Casey, write this off as a mere phase, hope that their kids forget about it and just move on, back to brother and sister, back to their perfect, unbreakable world?" And...YOU UPDATED! Thank you so much! Update again soon!
JanetBanana 2007-12-18 ch 13,	abuseWow. I'm just...speechless. I'm fighting so hard for Talis and Callie to be together, with Derek and Casey's blessing. I'm a sucker for a happy ending. I don't know what will happen or how it will all work out, but I'm SUCH a sucker for a happy ending. So I really hope there is one. I'm practically in tears. That's what your writing reduces me to. And I've cried maybe, three times in over a year. I never cry. You're that good of a writer.
jannikajade 2007-12-18 ch 13,	abuseI. love. you. Such angst. The poor things they break my heart- and i love Sammy too- and Callie, trying to love him, but she can't... And Derek and Casey wondering if they did the right thing-- love.
Rawr4cookies 2007-12-18 ch 13,	abuseAnd all the while as Casey lays in her bed, alone, staring at the ceiling, she sobs softly and her face is getting wrinkly and her limbs are numb and she thinks, she knows, she regrets. For she unwillingly destroyed that one place her daughter could have called home. He loves her, and she knows. She’s always known. It was as if, in another time, in another place, in another life, they were the same people, stuck in the same situation. She was someone with duller brown hair, and sparkling blue eyes, and she was tall and firm shaped. She was a keener, and she would laugh at the thought. She danced and she laughed and she fought and she studied. She loved her family but loved someone so much more than anyone could have ever imagined. And that person was not the one standing across from her at this moment. Sammy was that other person, someone she’s known for a very, very long time. He was her crutch and he was a jokester, he smiled and goofed and he secretly admired all that she believed and worked for. He played hockey, right beside someone that at this moment is blurry and yet so bright to her eyes, and he loved her, loved her so very much. She tried. She really tried to love him back. She’s sorry. I really loved all the parts when kind of doing a flashback or look at the LWD setting, when Casey and Derek were growing up and how hard it was for THEM and the triangle/mix relationships amongst them at their time and how it's kind of the same now...only much more complicated and severe. I would be terrified too, if I was Derek. I feel so horrible for them! I love the twins and want them to be happy and together but I too see how legally they will be torn apart and put in jail...and oh, people will now and hurt them! Oh, look at what you did, getting me to believe that they are real. I hate you. and I'M NOT A LESBIAN.
DaseyFangirl 2007-12-18 ch 13, anon.	abuseThis is great! update soon!
Catdogg 2007-12-18 ch 13,	abuseJeez, this is like all so tragic. You've got to feel bad for everyone, especially the twins, but still you can see why Derek and Casey act the way they do. You added that lyric: "We were all in love and we all got hurt." and damned if it wasn't perfect- it just about summed everything up update again soon
pinklillies 2007-12-18 ch 13, anon.	abuseoh!! this was so great, very much! I really appreciate this update because it allows me feel the character's emotions and turmoil, the confusion and the overwhealming pressure that love can distort so much in one's life so that it changes what was once seen as right and wrong, black and white, into gray and just plain okay. Sammy...I want him to be happy, huh? when is it going to happen?! he LOVES her. he really does, and it's just...heart breaking to see him suffer as he does. and Derek and Casey, let's not forget that this story is about them, too! They are slowly fading without one another, soon enough, even if it's in selfishness, they need to bring the twins back together if only to see and be with each other again!! update soon, THIS WAS TOO LONG OF A WAIT.
princetongirl 2007-12-17 ch 13,	abuseloved it update soon
keriberi2003 2007-12-17 ch 13,	abusePoor Sammy! I really feel for him... I really liked this chapter, it was full of emotion and very well written. I love it. Your story is truly amazing! It seems like Casey and Derek are starting to slowly accept Talis and Callie's relationship... I need to know what happens next so update soon :)
jeytonlover 2007-12-17 ch 13,	abuseIt's about time, lol! I'm so excited to see this. I have to say I feel so sorry for Sammy. Unrequitted love sucks! I loved this little flash back and Derek talking about hating to see Casey so upset when she lost her job. You're back with a vengence and I'm psyched!
PurpleMango2010 2007-12-17 ch 13,	abuseI love your story, but it makes me so sad to see how Callie uses Sammy!
FanofInulover 2007-12-17 ch 13,	abuseAmazing quotes that after a very long time of not reading this inredible story, hit home for me: “She must have snuck a peak at my paper.” she says to herself. “After all, it’s what Derek would have done.” And her heart hurts once more. “I guess the reason why, is because things like breaking curfew or sneaking out of the house is child’s play for me. I like to break bigger rules, you know, those type of rules that may even be-” He lifts his hand up carelessly and touches her chin, the mere contact alone sends a shiver up her spine, but not a good one in the least. His hand is cold, and his eyes are devoid of emotion except for this little spark she can’t quite place. If she knew the word, she would have called it malice. “Illegal.” He nods and she smiles before a tumbling of feet upon the stairs is heard, a scream is heard and then a fall and Casey shoots up. Sammy stays put, carefully taking a sip of his juice as if nothing out of the ordinary is happening. “What if, what we think is right isn’t right. What if what’s wrong in our eyes is right in another’s? Isn’t this world built on the foundation that we are entitled to our own beliefs? Our own morals and opinions? Perspectives, feelings, entitled to each and every one of those freedom-enhancing ideals, and yet…I don’t know Derek. And she thought then, Casey did. Things change, and slowly, what we were taught to believe in seems to be far from the truth with each passing day. She leaves the kitchen light on so Callie can find her way home. Because, no street lamps, or signs on the poles outside, directions on a map or a friend there to help guide the way will get her to where she needs to be, and Casey knows this better than anyone. Because this was her home and sanctuary at one point, too. When she drove up to it on that one sunny day, hand in hand with the boy beside her, with the boy whom is now a man that she spends an eternity loving, it was the light from inside, in the form of a woman, with open arms and a warm smile that guided her to finding her way home. And all the while as Casey lays in her bed, alone, staring at the ceiling, she sobs softly and her face is getting wrinkly and her limbs are numb and she thinks, she knows, she regrets. For she unwillingly destroyed that one place her daughter could have called home. “It would suck if the waves were continuous and relentless, wouldn’t it?” I want to put down so much more, but it would basically mean that I was so to copy and paste the entire update. This was truly...breathtaking, I wish to say. I can't even formulate words properly for this update was just what was needed after your long absence, which I took harshly too, as you know. I didn't like it one bit that you took such a long break from this story, I thought you were going to leave it unfinished or unupdated foreever! It was a suprise that such thoughts like that really haunted me. Regardless, I am glad that you are back. Glad that you updated with such length and emotion as you normally do. I love the interactions between characters, the questions and the change of feelings slowly. I liked how Callie defended Sammy so eagerly and with such vigor, I jolted. I also really like how I think Derek and Casey are starting to see that this is beyond their reach and can't be helped in a sense, that their children and in love and possibly, the clogs are turning so that they will finally accept them. But that may be just wishful thinking. I want to write so much more but I feel like I am overloading you with this review. I really, really, love this story beyond words. Please continue with this at all costs.
ForbiddenEmotion 2007-12-05 ch 12,	abuseAW! BUT NO! I hate no I love no I hate naw I love you! This was so heartbreaking for the twins. I can't believe they are seperated. Damn the world and it's morals. I am still gushing over the phone conversation, it was so heartfelt I thought I was actually about to start petting my computer and tell it is was going to be okay. But I must admit that I kinda giggled when they were making fun of Talis being a transvestite! But the way you write about the twins is phenomenal. I honestly wish I could reach out and touch them, meet them. I feel like I already know them! This story is the greatest of your incestuous collection! I'm still just angry that I know how it will end!! I feel torn between sadness and happiness. UPDATE SOON!
