God, this was amazing. It's like...a memoir. It goes from curious to sad to cheery in one swift, smooth movement. Loved it! *hearts*

Sweet! XD; I wish Paine could've been included though. [=

Ah, good job! A surprisingly nice read. I say "surprisingly" because the title made me roll my eyes with a smile and wonder 'oh, this should be good.'

But really, a lovely story. Baralai's section was my favorite, personally. I only had one nose scrunching moment. Gippal. Fuzzy after only five beers? XD

I'll be faving this, if it's alright with you.

Loved it. That simple. Nooj, Baralai and Gippal are such different characters, for someone to be able to voice them all so perfectly is beyond impressive.
On top of that, I doubt most people could pull of a first-person narrative, using an original character, the way you have.
It was a really satisfying read, to see each of them searching for something, and later, to see they've found it.
Great stuff.

Very interesting one-shot! Well charecterized Gippal, Nooj and Baralai! Very realisitc scene of events and the bartender was well written. Nicely done and a wonderful piece.

That was i great fic, i was so touched, it is great work

Wow... It's really well-written!! :] Ha, everything fit together nicely in the end. You did great!! ^_^

Aw that was really sweet! And very cleverly thought out! Great!

The glass was half-empty before I knew it.

LOL oh my gosh I think that last line has to be my favorite! I was completely not expecting it :D

I really love these outside-character perspective stories, and yet, there are so few of them out there. They always offer an interesting take on the topic/fandom they're on, and this one reminds everyone that Spira is a vast world (continent?) with more than 6 people on it.

This especially worked for you, RyRy, because you have a unique sense of humor and a talent of writing moods and characters rather well. Like in "Switch", I went from laughing hysterically to staring somberly at my computer screen. Here, the story went from sort of interesting (because we the readers know things the narrator doesn't), to kinda depressing, back to interesting with a hint of humor, and finally a small happiness (with all the loose ends meeting). Although for me, the very end brought a laugh bubbling up my throat! hahahaha

I look forward to more of your work!

Great story. I would have liked to have seen Paine involved as well, but I guess she wouldn't be much of a drinker, hmm? Very cute ending, RyRy. xD

This was a great little story, I liked how you tied everything up in the end. You represented the characters very well, I thought, capturing a rather tumultuous time in their lives. I particularly liked the part with Gippal. Good job! ~S
