cool!

I hope there is a continuation for tyhis as it's a touching and good story.

Looking forward to the continuation! And so glad it's AU, because, well, it allows for more and happier possibilities than canon.

This was still so crushing and sad even though I knew from chapter 1 that it was coming...you really have a lovely, emotive writing style.

Ugh, so heartbreaking, and yet so good! I really like how you imagine this scene taking place--usually it's a grief torn Minato making the decision on his own in fic, and thus any agency Kushina might have had is erased.

This fic is so well written that it is painful to read as all the cute and fluff has the shadow of what we *know* happens in the future hanging over it. That all the things that are so carefully wrought here go so awry in the future...

This is so beautiful and so in character--I can really see how they are both Naruto's parents. This is the first fic I've read that really tries to make sense of the angst behind the choices both Kushina and Minato have had to make in a convincing way.

omg... thats the end?!?!?!?!?!

13 years? wouldnt naruto have left with jirayia? hmm...

please, PLEASE continue

This is awesome! I've been looking all over for a good Kushina story, and this is perfect! You're a very good writer, and I can't wait to read the sequal!

nice work, love the emotional conflicts, going to start Regrets.

very cute

i liked it^^

Excellent fic, though everyone is at faultthere (except naruto, of course).

Poor...

Guilt trips make good plot points.I will read the sequel now!
Great Job!

THAT was damn good writing.Clarify please:Kushina seemed a bit harsh in her refering to Naruto as her 'little monster',was it her sense of humor or an acknowledgement of what the sealing made him and her attitude allows her to love him anyway?The reactions of the villagers were foreshadowing and your Sandaime seemed spot on-as well as Jiraiya,Kakashi and Rin.Great Job!
+Grape jelly?Original if pretty weird.
+It would have only taken one person,and Uzumaki Kushina didn't count.
