This was really good. It kept me guessing all the way through. I would really love to read any alternative endings you have. Thank you, Ali.

Such a great story! Don't know why I haven't read it before, I thought I had read all of your fiyeraba stories, it was very clever I totally thought it was Nessa, so yeah I was wrong. Great story, congrats.

I love the "he's too cute to die!" And I totally feel for Elphie I have been the mediator in an awful break-up before and it sucks majorly

Wow! I totally adore this story...
...excpet I'm so stupid, every time someone was accused, I'm like, 'OMG they're the killer!' Great job tricking me!

Also, whenevs I read a great story, I get jealous and write my own version, longhand. Naturally, I had to start a choose-your-adventure murder whodunit right away.

LOVE IT!

Yes! It was the insipid Pfannee, after all! I'm so glad - she irks me to no end! Thanks so much for following through with this story to the end; I really enjoyed it! And once again, a big "aw!" at Fiyero's concern over Elphie. I am *such* a sucker for even a hint of Fieraba! Anyway, thanks again for writing this story, and I'd love to read more from a talented writer like you! :)

OH MY GOSH!!
Ugh, I should've known it was Pfannee!! That was really clever... My 13 year old mind was just not clever enough to figure it out. Haha.
I really enjoyed this story!!
And I would LOVE to read the alternate endings. (:

Oh wow. It's all over =O
Pfannee. Of course. She's the only one evil enough to kill all those people! Did I really guess right? I don't remember guessing it was Pfannee! But I suppose I must have done. Go me, haha!
Ooh. One thing I have to say; well done on not killing off any of the (5?) main characters. At one point I thought they were all going to die one by one, but thankfully I was proven wrong!
And congratulations on writing such a successful murder mystery- the conclusion was flawless. Though I think I'll have to go back and read it again to see just how Pfannee fits in as the murderer!

I still say it was Fiyero, just because I like to guess randomly. :P

To be honest, I was never trying to figure it out, I'm not sure why. I think I just wanted to wait and see what you had come up with, trusting you to make it lovely. And, of course, you did.

“Maybe in a minute,” her eyes subtly glancing toward Fiyero.
>atta girl!

If you want to post alternate endings, that's fine, but I'm more than content with this one. I feel so rewarded!! Yay team updating!! Please continue this trend, lest I die.

I'm sorry this review isn't longer. I liked how Elphaba pieced the clues together; that was the majority of the chapter. She's (slash, YOU'RE) very smart! :)

Haha! XD I knew I was right this time... xP

Aww, I'm gonna miss this story! Although I'd love to read the alternate endings...

I'm sorrier that this story is ending. :D

*claps*

I think it is Pfannee. I'm not sure about her motive but the only person in the story who had leopard underwear flashed was Pfannee. Although I know Shenshen made a comment about them being hers I'm sticking w/ Pfannee.

ack. XD please update.

fermataoso, you are a wonderful writer- but, i must be honest with you: I don't buy the Nessa explanation. Moreso than just the whole she-had-sex thing, but also with boq still really characterized as torn with Glinda and Nessa not being totally sure about him yet. Also with the timeline, and a couple other things. but mostly, because the whole time I'm wondering why the fact that she's in a wheelchair is not an obvious rule out. nessa can't stand, much less walk over to someone and strangle them, right? Am I missing something?

as far as the R.L. Stine Choose-your-own-scare-eque proposed endings, I support whatever creative decisions you wish to make, but I will already favor the original intent just because of it being the original. And unless it's Pfannee or Madame Morrible (or any other character who's been absent till the end) I will not wrinkle my nose at the choice. And, once again, I reiterate that 1. murder mysteries are probably incredibly strange to write so 2. you're doing infinitely better than I probably could with the circumstances and 3. this is the first whodunnit that I will have read completely, unless you count House by Frank Peretti, which really shouldn't be counted. So that's props right there.
