:) I loved this story:) I like the short ending as much as the long one, actually...Though long endings rock, haha^^

It somehow is sad that L can't remember things anymore, it has to be painful to know you did and saw things but can't remember...And your brain has a memory, but your body has one too, apparently:) So the thing about 'remembering the feeling' fits;)
I loved this story, and at the beginning you said you'd bring out new sides of their personalities:) I think it worked. L is kind of cold and neglecting Light, while Light is a hyper and enthusiastic child. Kind of^^ They're different than in most of the stories, but it still fits...:) Love it:P

I have to say that I really do prefer this ending and it is so much easier to understand reading this story a second time. Anyway this story was awesome and even though I think the endin is great I would have kinda liked finding out Light's reaction to L's change of heart.

This wasn't what I was expcting in the least. Especially with all of Lighto's whining between the lines (litterally). It's not the best idea that L just happend to start a journal just before he met Lighto.

You wanted the readers to think about which situation would benefit L more, but it's not relevent in the least since no one can turn back time. I really like how you put the real beginning in at the very end but I don't think L's goal of remembering his past is obvious enough. I think the whole plot of this story was finding out why L just shut away from Lighto. Only one line reveals that now he wasn't scared anymore but I still don't understand what changed him. Did losing his memory made him change his mind? Did losing Lighto change his mind? What?

It looks to me like in the end, the ending wraps up nice but it just wraps up the wrong thing. And an awesome feature I liked in this story was that it kept switching from past to present to past again. In this chapter it did only once.

Can’t wait to read more from you :)

Suprisingly I managed to sort out the timeline by the second chapter! :)
This is so heart-wrenching! And I understand both points of view, why Light felt he had to do what he did, and the emotional strain he felt staying and leaving the strain wasn't minor by all means.
L, had to deal with the blame resting firmly on his shoulders which is also draining and the frustration of not being able to change himself and not wanting to...I just LOVE this story.
And I love L with grey or dark blue eyes..no idea why..:P Update soon please...and yes I do know that most of that prolly wasn't coherent :D

Why do people always ask if it's worth it? What difference is it gonna make? It won't fix the situation and it'll only make the landing harder. Oh well, whatever Lighto-brighto. You know, I thought that there was something wrong with everybody reacting to Lighto's name, but I figured L lost his memory 2 times. I thought the past was the future and the future was the past and there was a time way before that when they were together. So that makes it the third time total. Lighto is very good at acting, isn't he?

And you put that quote at the beginning of every chapter. Is that famous statement really true? I believe each opposite will look jealously at the grass on the other side of the fence. And as far as I know, most have loved and lost so why do people believe in that side more than it's counterpart?

Sorry I'm really philosophical today :D I totally laughed when I found out that Lighto took it out on Mello remembering the time Mello 'tripped' when he heard about Lighto. I'm sad that there's only one chapter left, but then again I wouldn't want any fillers or anything like that. It's just meant to be I guess. And Lighto believing in God? Like the actually genuine Bible God? *gasp* So much for having faith in their relationship. kidding. Well, at least I'm happy that Lighto just plainly told the truth. For once. Just one that confused me, though. How did L remember being in an orphanage is he lost his memory? If he remembered being in an orphanage after the accident wouldn't he remember his name?

Also, Lighto and L were together and he didn't even read his books? Especially if L writes as well as you do? *adds the reason the 'why I hate Lighto' list* Thank you so much for writing. I love it! XD

So L had amnesia? That's new. What was L's problem? I think I can take a guess at it. I think it's because L doesn't want to get close to Lighto and lose him again. No offence but I sense Edward Cullen much? I don't particularly mind, though. Just saying. And L doesn't deserve Lighto? Lighto doesn't deserve L! (pretty much, no matter who's at fault I'll blame Lighto. I can't help it XD) Although as much as I hate to say it, Lighto has a point, but he doesn't need to be such a drama queen. I do have advice for L, trying to separate yourself from someone you're already close to takes way too much work and effort. If Lighto stuck around a bit more, I bet L would've eventually given up and everything would be normal as normal can be. Either that or Lighto could just jump off a cliff (New Moon refference).

I do love Lighto's boldness and L's bashfulness. But since when did Lighto become so selfless? In the anime He was the anime, he was the common selfish brat every protidgy will be. I guess being in love changes things, but still.

Bottom Line is, L, why would you want someone not even in your league to love you? and Lighto, don't even think you deserve L.

Hope to have time to read more of this story.

oh...I'm sorry I'm sorry! I got forcibly trapped in the land of school and homework and I couldn't get out. remember long ago when it was summer and school didn't assign you boring work every single day? Yeah, that time's long gone. I didn't read the original and the fact that the first chapter ended in a huge time skip which had no clue for continuation, I thought this was a one shot. I've never seen any writing so out of chronological order. It's like that one time I was talking to my friend about two totally different subjects at the same time. It was fun. And so far, this fic is fun to read. Now I see Lighto's point of view in more depth, but he still can't leave L like that. What happened to holding on the wind doesn't blow him away? Whatever Lighto. Your loss my gain heheheheh. *muffled noises come from the direction of the closet*

I've noticed one thing. This is mostly L's point of view. I'm impressed. Most writers are too afraid to make L too OOC. You're doing an amazing job! *clapps and then throws flowers*

The story is clear, but sometimes, the eye color throws me off a little. I know Mello to have icy blue eyes and Mattikins to have green eyes, but I understand to each their own. I'll get used to it soon.:)

I realy love this story. Favor'd fo' sure.

Oh, yay! I'm glad you updated so quickly. I always wondered what Light wrote in his letters, and now I know! It definitely offers more insight into their relationship, so it's good that you edited this chapter. Keep it up!

Your writing style reminds me of a author, I forget the name of them though. The references to the past and present created that effect, I really enjoy it.

And the fact that its an awesome fanfic only adds to how much I enjoy it! Great story, hope you update in the near future.

~I hope L and Light get back together~
