| Magesa 2007-10-28 ch 1, | abuseI love how you wrote about Franz, kind of a minor character... it really brought me into something else. Terrific story! |
| Polly Oliver 2007-10-17 ch 1, | abusenifty! poor franz...but we all have to go through that kind of angst. it's unavoidable, if you are capable of love. your writing shows a lot of restraint and poetry--you *suggest* things subtly and prettily. i like it. |
| Rah-la 2007-08-31 ch 1, | abuseThis fic just blows me away (in a good way). Everything--the poetic language (that drunken dizzying Carnival in Rome!), the characterization, the wonderfully written relationship between Franz and Albert... it's all just stunning. And I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one who read the book and 'ships Franz and Albert! The only problem I see is that, as another reviewer mentioned, the last sentence is a fragment and seems sort of out of place. But overall? |
| peachtarts 2007-08-30 ch 1, | abusebeautiful, stunning. |
| Nianeyna 2006-12-19 ch 1, | abuseYour imagery is... wow. Just one thing - the last sentence is a fragment, which threw me out of the story a little. |
| CrimsonKitty89 2006-11-05 ch 1, | abuseSQUEE! I absolutely LOVED IT! It was so beautifully written with the ribbons and the stench and all of Italia dancing in the streets. The end was absolutely gorgeous and cute all at the same time with Albert sleeping on Franz's shoulder. |
| Celes 2005-03-07 ch 1, anon. | abuseVery lovely indeed. I anticipate perhaps more? Your style is fantastic and ubiquitous. Truly something to read more than once to enjoy it from all angles ^_^ Really, in my humble view I can't see any flaws X3 |
| Shinteetah 2005-03-07 ch 1, | abuseWonderful millieu! (did I spell that correctly?) You've done a great job with the atmosphere. The whole thing is a dreamy, dizzy carnival experience. (One note: "whom" referring to Albert should be "who," as he's the subject of that phrase and not the object...) I'm left a little surprised at the end -- Franz seems almost resentful of Albert during the story, but the ending implies either a deep friendship or (given your Albert/Franz tag) a sexual relationship. I might want a little more explanation of why Franz is admiring Albert and contrasting himself with him and then kissing his sleeping brow... I'm one of those old-fashioned types who believes guys can be close friends without also being gay, so I have my own ideas :-) but you should illuminate yours a little more. |
| Akari-chan 2005-03-04 ch 1, | abuseHow sweet! I loved it. Dear Franz is just too cute, isn`t he? Abert is so idiot >_< *grabs Franz* |
| MaskedCritic 2004-05-04 ch 1, anon. | abuseWhoa-ho-ho! is this slash? oh please. say it isn't so! don't you dare call me closed minded.(uhh by the way, this is not a flame) i just think that it's sick when people change a characters sexual orientation. I swear, Dumas is probably rolling over in his grave. Aside from the slash melodrama, this is a fantastic story. your language is beautiful and descriptive. so many fan fics are just "blah blah blah, life goes on" but this little morsel really lives. i would love to read another of your stories ok, you have every right to call me a flamer or an anti-gay. that's your opinion. i'm just giving mine. |
| The Infant Phenomenon 2003-12-27 ch 1, | abuseOOh! Lovely vibrant imagery! yummy little fic! Bravo! |
| A Passerby 2002-08-28 ch 1, anon. | abuseI loved it! It was beautiful! Wonderful! I need more! The entire web needs more! More Monte Cristo fan fic! More Monte Cristo slash! ^_^!! Huzzah! |
| Broadwaypoetess 2002-08-15 ch 1, | abuseBlinkin: That... was... beauteefull.. what's going on? Ahcoo: The Three Musketeers fans are asleep. Blinkin: Beateefull, ain't it, CMC? Count of Monte Cristo: Never call me CMC again. Broadwaypoetess: That was FUN! And sad.. |
