Aaaooowww ! beautiful fanfic on Seirei No Moribito !

I like very much the ambiance that you describe, and you respect the personality of each characters, Torogai particularly. After, I love very much the end, so cute ! But, I have little difficulty to see Balsa as mother with a young child. And only the magic of the fanfics who can ensure this events.

Thanks for the fanfic, it was really nice to read !

For a moment, I thought this was a translation of excerpts from the novels as your characterisation was spot-on. There was a sense of regret that it was fanfic 'cos I enjoyed it very much.

This satisfies the incredible itch I have for this pairing. I love how you play with gender roles and marriage dynamics, as well as the pregnancy itself. The imagery of a heavily pregnant warrior woman still dangerously wielding a competent spear is a vivid and scary one. And cool!

I also like Tanda's observation of Balsa feeling safe in the arms of the person who heals her, not the one who protects her. There's a simplicity and unsaid-words-subtext to this tone that's nice, calm, and gentle like Tanda. He seems to just go with the flow, which is inevitably in the same direction as Balsa, though I wonder whether or not she'd be willing to have him with her on her journeys unless she's crossed the point of exasperation with his stubbornness to join her.

AWWWWE Tanda and Balsa are so perfect together! I love how they fit so perfectly and their past together really shows that even if they were to get married, nothing would change. They would always love eachother.

You Author's Note reflects my sentiments exactly. Thank you for writing this, the characterization was simple but actually echoed the novels very well. This is such a sweet story!
