Aw =[ This is sad T.T

This was heartbreaking. I thank all of the meaningless authors who write only smut because it makes work like this all the more amazing.
This was intertwined perfectly, and not for one second did you leave character in writing this. I understand Kyle's torment, I understand Cartman's jealousy. It's apparent and it hurts.
I love it when south park fiction writers explore the characters to depths such as these, because there is more to be said beyond the superficiality of all of the simply sexual stories.
Well done. Very well done.

After reading all these humorous fics, I have to say that was majorly depressing. ]= But I thought it was well written =]

Yeah, I'd so! Angst to the max! Well dear, I'm sorry that I was the one to delay your plans of posting this. Is that really the reason! AW! Oh, and just to let you know? I'm up to editing that part in my story into the original fic...so I'll get to read it again soon. Ugh.

ANYWAY! I digress. This was beautiful. As usual, you have such a uniquely captivating voice for writing. And your subject matter is so refreshing (or in this case just tragic). What I mean by that is the pairings you choose, and how it is NOT a slash fic. So often we all (myself included) get caught up in the lovely Stan/Kyle or Kyle/Kenny or Stan/Kenny or whatevers! of the world and we forget that once upon a time, those boys were just super best friends. And you capture their friendship better than any other author I've ever read. Seriously, this is a true friendship love.

And what I love about your stories is how you justify Cartman's hatred toward everyone. It makes sense when we think about it, but you're the only one to go into that sort of detail. And I love the angle of him and Kyle being bffs before Stan swooped in a stole Kyle away. And then this one even talked about how Kenny came into play. You're so logical with these backgrounds. What I find interesting is how I love to make up futures for the boys, but you tend to fill in the gaps of the past. And that's something I like to read. Most excellent.

The ending I wasn't too fond of simply because I hate that Kyle wanted to kill himself. True, I killed off Stan (and so did you), but I didn't have him committ suicide. Thats just...*sigh* I'm glad Cartman had enough decency in him to pull the trigger elsewhere. I gotta wonder if the real Cartman would be so kind. Sometimes I really think he wants Kyle did. I mean, what if that wiffel bat was really steel plated? He could've killed him dead :P But yeah, I suppose the suicide plea is from Kyle's devestation, and since you portrayed his uber friendship with Stan like so, it's only natural for him to feel that way. Still, its more than sad. It's downright depressing.

How Stan died...THAT is...wow. He IS a hero, but Kyle I'm sure will be feeling that for a long time to come. Not just because his best friend died, but because he died trying to help out Kyle's brother. And Kyle could've done it himself, but he wasn't in the right mind. Grieving people always blame themselves. I hope Kyle will be okay. By the way, I liked the bit about Ike enjoying his time with his brother on Sunday mornings. Come to think of it, I bet Ike probably feels damn guilty too. Aw, poor little fella. I sure hope Kyle won't resent his little brother for Stan's death. That'd be terrible!

Now, one last thing I want to comment on. And that it is your summarization (is that a word? oh well) of what a soul mate is. I'll tell you my honest-to-God reaction that I got from it.

I wanted to copy and print out that section and hang it on my wall. I believe it SO much that I couldn't have worded it better myself. Matter of fact, I was JUST talking to my best friend about how I believe she is my soul mate, and that soul mates aren't necessarily romantic. On the contrary, I believe that a soul mate--even if they ARE the love of your life--is your best friend. Like you said. I believe that she is my soul mate because we're both on the same page even though we're in different aspects of life right now. And we're always on the same page. And I love talking to her late at night, and pretty much what you described as your soul mate section describes us. It really spoke to me because I don't know if I'll ever find a guy who's a better match for me. But I know I'll always have my friends.

Speaking of which, I've been a downright terrible one to you. This is more personal and shouldn't be explained over the public review, but I wanted to let you know that I still think you are fabulous :) And I'm going through a rough time too--we'll pull out of it though, I'm sure.

What else can I say? This was tragically breathtaking. And I mean that as a compliment.

I don't even know what to say. I cried. This was beautiful.

Aw that was so sad T_T
Poor Kye!

That was so beautiful! *sniffs* I'm so happy that someone wrote about Stan and Kyle being great friends and not lovers, with such nice language. Seriously, I could feel Kyle's pain, and I, thankfully, have never experienced the death of a loved one, so I really don't know what it feels like in real life. But you made it so believable!
I love how you also gae the background story in regards to Cartman and Kyle, it just seems to fit so perfectly. And Cartman's grief, that was pretty credible too, and gives reason to why he didn't kill Kyle.
I'm glad they both made it out alive (poor Stan, though!!). The ending is perfect, doing exactly that, it just ends. Because, seriously, when a good friend of yours dies, not all is okay in the world that quickly.
I really hope to see more of your writing soon! :)

That was so sad! :'(
You made me cry...
It was beautifully written, yet so tragic! (sobs)
