 JJJ 2009-06-15 . chapter 12 I like the humor you put into this, while still keeping the characters in-character. I looked at the other ones, and some were touching, some were funny, and some were just... yeah. Anyway, you are a very talented writer, to be able to cover so many topics. I wish I could do that... :D |
 jwalamukhie 2008-03-31 . chapter 9 From 1) He was tall. Ah, love.
2) At first, it sounds like she was forced into it, and although you get into her wanting it, she still doesn't sound quite happy. But, not unhappy. And then she's scared and it all makes sense. And Zuko's panicked. Aw.
3) STEAM! Win. And 'girl' as an insult. Lovely, Zuko.
4) I was really confused the first time I read this, because I didn't get that the kid was male, so the pronouns didn't match up. It's all good now, though, and so cute.
5) Triangles. :( They so rarely end well. This one managed it, though, I think. Nitpick:
"Absorbing the strike through his fingers, he felt the current shuttle along his rigid limb, his chi choppy instead of flowing, he bent it upward—" sounds like a run-on. Should it split after 'limb?' Right now it feels like he's bending the chi and not the current.
6) Iroh would be the best grandparent EVER.
7) Fire Lord Iroh at last. And the Zutara collision reminds me of "The Notebook" but just inherently much better.
8) Katara as a sister reminds me of Caligula. Go figure.
9) Oh, god. This... just... figures. (I would do this. Either side, really.) Where it would go chronologically confuses me a little, though. After Part 7, as a "Meet the Tribe" hidden scene?
Hm, overall. I LOVE the nonlinear order -- it's so much more fun. Even if it is nonintential, the puzzle piece-feel forces you to pay attention. And the characters seem IC, or at least as if they could have made natural progressions to where they end up. Nice! Thank you! |
