Beautiful. This really told about a (rarely, if ever, seen) Yukito we seem to ignore, his confusion, the d dark side within him...

Reading about a psychologist's point of view made me compare my own sessions with my therapist, and I'd say that atmosphere I got from this story was so similar I was quite surprised. My therapist told me to try taking a course to see if psychology was for me, the thin bonds between acting like a family member and a psychologist just doesn't seem right for me. To get close to them without getting /too/ close to them for their own good just seems too isolated for my tastes.

I enjoyed the moment when Yue suddenly takes over after Imiyo baits, and was told to do something by a human. In fact, I never thought of a person telling Yue to do something unless they were Sakura / Eriol / Clow / Touya. Even imagining that slight pause to think "A human is telling me what to do?!" brought a smile to my face.

I feel like I learned something in this fanfiction other than an intense adventure or world. Thank you for writing this, and giving me those moments that I felt like this was as realistic as it could be... when magic is involved!

That was a great story. I really felt for Yukito, a character that always seemed very grounded while I was reading CCS. The moment when Yukito admitted there was no him and Touya really shocked me. What a twist.

Your story was absolutely captivating. each chapter was well written, well thought out and something that kept the reader interested. i couldn't stop reading! (well, except for sleep and school) I found that you got the characters great, displaying their emotions very well. it shows that you've put a lot of thought in this story and analyzed the characters as well.

As you said in your "author's narcissistic ramblings", the fanfiction realm did need a story like this one about psychotherapy. i've read a few, though they were quite funny and enjoyable, it wasn't very realistic at all.

This story made me curious about your other fic "The one true thing" and I'll probably go read it. great job on this one!

this is so cool! yukito going to therapy. quite intriguing and amusing. this fic seems very promising.

Great story! To tell the truth, I always thought I knew as much as there was to know about Yukito but you proved me wrong. You showed me the true Yukito in your story, and I thank you. Now I know I have a lot more things to learn to even get to your standerd!

Wow, this was an awesome read.

I just adored this. I usually try to stay away from Yukito/Yue focussed fics (because honestly I feel as if I've seen enough of them already), but your writing hooked me in from the get-go, and I loved it to pieces.

I'm glad the endless reccing of this fic sent me here. Thankyou ever so much for writing and sharing this.

Awesome!

Goodness, this definitely gave me a lot to think about. It's interesting how, in retrospect, it seemed that Yukito accepted it a bit too quickly that he was, as you elegantly put it, a shadow, of a magical being. You're right; we don't see much of Yukito and Toya past those two scenes in the second arc of the manga's events. His (apparent) acceptance of it, just because Toya assured him in volume four, rather does reveal a bit about his dependancy upon Toya. This story brought to light that little section in the back of my mind that wondered how Yukito felt about the situation. I found it quite good that there was a bit of a more realistic view of the characters and their issues implemented in the story. You certainly deepened the characters a lot.
Honestly, at first I wasn't quite sure how to react to the entirety of the story, other than trying to breathe and collect my thoughts. One of the things I really enjoyed about this work was that, as stated above, the cast that was shown was fleshed out a lot more than what I've read in the past regarding CCS. Also, I found the glimpse into the terminology fascinating, along with the character of Imiyo. Beautiful, bitter-sweet, and above all else, well done.
Take care,

very good!

I think this is the most beautiful piece of writing archived here on FF Net. I don't think anyone could have portrayed Yukito and his dilemmas as effectively and seamlessly as you have. It's a far cry from anything I'd usually read, and I'm so glad I did. Thank you for writing this!

Of course, looking at my email, you can see why I was attracted to the sequel to this fic, but I wanted to read (reread, actually) the prequel first. Nicely done.

I've enjoyed this very much. It's very interesting and... well, it feels like the objects, instead of the shadows like stries tend to be. Fanfics are shadows of shadows, huh? But yours broke through into seeming a reality. =]

This has little to do with the story, but as I grow older, I have more of a balance. More Yin is being added to myself... but I'm still overwhelmingly Yang. =] But I can slip on a moon-colored mantle to hide my sunshine when I need to.

...Wow, that was a cool line. I need to remember it! XD

I was very excited, when reading this story. Oh, for once a fic that isn't Yue/Yukito! That can be interesting but I love the ones that delve into a character's...character. Thank you for writing this, I found it amazing. Not to mention it had my emotions high too- in the last chapter, when Yukito cried, I did too.

wow i REALLY loved this... sadly i could put myself in Imiyo's place like nothing.. damn me for being a tharapist(sp? T.T) for emo and depressed frinds... and the personality thats falls in rage or sadness itself but can bounce up.. ** im not even out of highschool xD but i never could find many good sounding yue/yuki stories and i love kinda like sakura but never getting over it... xD gah im ranting!! and getting off subject >>; again... but its creepy when you listen to your music(all j-rock/pop, visual Kei)and they fall in to senqunce with the story giving it more life, though i forgot in which chapter a " was missing incompleting the start of a person talking outloud. but yeah... if you ever get the chance to listen to the songs As One, 星空(starry sky, and Trust by L`Arc~En~Ciel, you could totaly see how they some how fit in the story... listining to the english words that is sung xDD but I Love You... as a author. XD ja ne

I'm reading over this again, coz I really enjoy reading it, and would like to know where "The One True Thing" is located so I can read that too.

This was brilliant! I want there to be more to this, and see how Yukito goes in sessions, but oh-well. Beautifully written. :)
