Brilliance, pure, brilliance.

I love this.

And the review button works! I don't have to stalk you down on LJ!

Blue was wonderful. I like Kid's description of souls, because it's an interesting question, and I think it's very cool that you explored it in this fic. Also "new creepy hand fetish" had me laughing out loud. Still. :snicker:

Yellow was really nice, because you have a great talent for writing from Patty's POV. To me, she's one of the hardest characters to figure out; how does the childishness balance out? But I think you just nailed it. In doing something that others see as childish, she's expressing some really adult thoughts. She does what she likes, and she doesn't care what others think. She must go through a ton of yellow crayons, though...

Finally I have time to review your lovely stories. I always look forward to new ones, and these lived up to the wait.
As I mentioned on LJ...SQUE!~

I really liked the thoughtful conversation about the nature of souls. It makes sense to me that Liz & Patti's souls were every color when they first met Kid. I also like Kid's insight on exactly what makes a soul pure--that was just nice.
And then he wigged out and went all OCD and that was so him. LOL

Patti's thoughts on yellow were absolutely wonderful. I like how you write all of them, but you capture Patti especially well. Because she is kind of out there...but at the same time she is more perceptive than she usually appears (in the anime anyway.)
This just made me go "aw" because it was sweet. I love that yellow is her favorite color because it is the color of Kid's eyes. I also like that being the reason behind her giraffe love.

Getting to see Kid through the eyes of both sisters is nice. You do a really good job of making them all sound like themselves--er if that makes sense.
They have very distinct voices and you nail them.

The only small thing I noticed was "Rouge weapons who prey on others..."
Rogue?
Sorry if mentioning that is annoying. Not meant to be. ^^;

So you really do write the best fics between these three, and that is a fact!
I adore the serious tone of the first that you have with Kid and his thoughts about souls. Whilst I guess it's something you would expect, it isn't something I've ever really thought about, but completely fits his character and of course, who he is. And the way that you can go from meaningful conversation to Kid going ocd and on one is a talent that I wish I could have.

The second was just sweet and adorable, people can mess Patti up so much, but you just seem to hit her spot on and give her the justice she deserves. To fit into the head of a slightly, well, crazy person, is a hard task indeed, but you manage to do it every single time with enviable ease.

Oh my gosh !

Don't think I've reviewed one of your stories (or at least not here?) but this is a good place to start.

Firstly, I really enjoy your characterisations of Liz, Patti and Kid.

I like the contrasts here, as Kid's reaction to Liz is thoughtful in its simplicity, as much as in his comment about the conflicts in her soul as his attention jumping suddenly to her hands. After that "meaningful heart-to-heart" Patti's bit emphasises something as 'mundane' as yellow, and in doing so shows her attachment to Kid.

Both are touching in their own ways, and one reason I really enjoyed this is that you bring out the relationship between the three in those ways; it's not just about souls or deep connections. It's about the little things that each notice, but also mean something.

Okay, I'm rambling in an attempt to say why I liked this, but it struck me as a lovely insight into the characters that is excellently written. Great work, and I really enjoyed it.

How very sweet. I always like the image of Kid doing the girls' nails for them. xD And then the deep thoughts on the color yellow told in a not-so-deep voice, Patti's, was great.

Aw, this was lovely. I liked the way you made Liz and Kid's interaction seem so natural - the way you interspersed something as mundane as painting nails with comments about Souls and then topped it off with Kid's obsession with the symmetry in Liz's hands was perfect.

And I'm so glad someone else appreciates Patti's brilliance. Honestly, I don't think she's as simple as some people make her out to be. Of course she's got those childish little quirks about her, but sometimes she lets some of her brilliance shine through, like when she made that giraffe from nothing but her test papers and crayons, or when she was able to get Kid moving with just a few well-placed words. And she's unexpectedly perceptive, to boot. You've managed to capture all those nice bits about her and still keep her Patti. Merci merci merci. ^_^
