*slaps the hell out of the perv who raped Meryl, then notices this is reviewer time* oh...uh hey *smiles nervously* I wasn't slapping him, I swear. anyways besides the fact I hate the nurse and the doctors who seem not to care about Meryl condition I just want to say... this is a really good story, its touching really and the emotions are very intense in this story. I would LIKE to see Vash confront the man who raped Meryl (and beat the crap out of him) also I find it ironic that about 2 weeks ago I had to write a paper on PTSD and here it is, in this lovely fic of yours. but besides that I'm forcing you to update, this story is too good to stop now, and with that said your a very poetic writer, your words captures the reader ensnaring them in your creative vocabulary. anyways...so yeah...update! or else! anyways...over and out!

*continues slapping the perv & now the doctors and nurses too*

This story is great. Not really because Meryl got rape and thats not great but the srory is, wait that makes no sense if im saying that the story is great then it means that im happy that Meryl got raped, but I like the story. Oh man Im confuse and now I have a mager headache o. ignore me. Please hurry up and update I cant wait to read the next chapter.

I like this story and I think it is about time you updated it.

The air was always crisp in the morning, a sharp slap in the face that cleared the sleep from groggy orbs and brought the world into a sharp focus. The light cut through the darkness and cast a blanket of warmth across the glittering sands, sparkling as if diamonds had been cast into a soft bed of grains that made a fine mist in the air as the wind stirred it with a clap of its merciless hands.
That just rocks! The best opening paragraph in fanfiction history!

*aplauds*

GAH! poor meryl was raped! what is vash going to do?
its getting angsty! yay! _
can't wait for chapter 6!

Greatness! Greatness, cant wait for the next chapter!

You have very good characterization skills. Wow. Cant get over how good your story was.

Must update soon! Its gonna kill me!

...Poor Meryl...:(...I think iam gonna cry...Poor Poor Meryl...

This is really good! Please update soon!

Hi! I love your story so far. Poor Meryl! Vash better take good care of her. I see you haven't updated in a while.. here's hoping you get the urge to pick up this fic again! It's really promising.

please, before i hit myself with a mallet, PLEASE! i wanna know what happens! will vash agree to send Meryl for therapy?

Oh I don't know why Vash is so worried, he'll outlive meryl by a million miles anyway.

WAAAAAAIIIIIII! You updated! Hurray! That was a really good chapter! It reveals a lot about how Meryl feels. _ Keep going! I'm counting on this story! It's one of the best Trigun ones I've read so far incase I haven't told you already. Well, I'm done now. Cya! Can't wait for the next update! _

I've been enjoying your story. There are a few rough spots, but overall I'm interested. I have you on my alert list so I'll be watching for more chapters.

So what's this old storyline you mentioned in your author's note? :p

I have one observation/suggestion to make. With the whole therapy thing... wouldn't Meryl have insurance to cover that? I don't know. Their world probably wouldn't offer such a luxary. Hovever, it seems reasonable to me that Bernardelli might offer the girls something like that as "compensation" for having to watch someone as destructive as Vash.

...or maybe you thought of that already and I should shut up...

See? Your story got me thinkin'. That's a good thing! Keep up the good work.

**laughs**

Trash your old story line? Before we even discovered what it was? No faaaiir!

Ahwell, I'm sure this one is just as wonderful, if not better.

I pray for a happy ending. ;_;

And lots of VxM mush. Yep. :D
