I like the ending! Great job!

Am I considered a sadist if I enjoy reading Ichiruki through Orihime's eyes? I don't know, but I really like it.. :P

it nearly made me cry STAY STRONG ORIHIME!

I like how Ishida noticed Orihime's discomfort ('cause he always notices her somewhat) :) Orihime's feelings and noticing Ichigo's feelings were well done too :)

3 I love,I love 3 You have an amazing writing style,really.

i think it was nice... you weren't too hard on her.

Bwa ha ha! Orihime is suffering!... Anyway... The only thing that really matters is rukia and ichigo : ) so I liked!

ugh your writing is amazing shjdosh;aduasjlfnk it's perf.

WOW, you did an amazing job with Orihime's inner thoughts. The characters were IC as well. I felt bad for Orihime, but she got to give up on Ichigo and tried to notice Ishida instead. I also felt bad for Ishida in here. His love for her is like her love for Ichigo, but he is more stronger than she is. Anyways, your post-476 speculation was great. I loved how overly protective Ichigo is when it comes to Rukia. All in all, an awesome well written piece. )

oh the ichiruki trade mark symbolism and the facial expressions and the tone of voice and the character actions and all the interaction and how you managed to pull the whole thing off from Orihime's point of view

you have no idea how happy I am that you joined the glorious ichiruki fandom

bonus ciders for no typos and weird grammar whatsoever

I'm gonna go off and read all of your ichiruki pieces in one go

Ohh. Mann.

Poignant.

Perfect.

Some other word beginning with P.

Let me go raid the rest of your fics now because that, -that- was fantastic.

orihime my heart goes out to you!

MY heart is breaking ;_; this was beautiful, and I couldn't think of anything to make it better

I thought this was lovely. Your writing is beautiful, as always, and you really have a gift for this fandom. I don't know how I feel about the last line, though. I mean, Orihime has been repeatedly bombarded by Ichigo and Rukia's connection throughout the series, and it has never deterred her feelings. Though, I suppose that, with her being away for so long, and without being reminded of the overwhelming freaking wonderful that they share, seeing them together suddenly would kind of be like the first time. I don't know-these are my own wild imaginings. I've found it odd that Orihime was able to maintain such strong feelings for Ichigo during the time skip, considering what happened in Hueco Mundo, and not much in their relationship has changed. Though I suppose I expected a little of Orihime's annoying habit to peek through-her constant apologies for herself, considering what a "nuisance" she was with the whole Tsukishima business.

But, now I'm babbling.

Ignore me. Great, great work.

Nice writing! Though im not a fans of Inoue but u wrote her just perfect!

I dont like it when IchiRuki fans write her as an awful chara. Yeah, often her 'Kurosaki-kun' whining is annoying but she doesnt deserve to be portrayed as a very annoying b****. teehee

Well, love d IchiRuki moment here though it's too little! We need more!
