It's funny to be back here - I have thought about this story often and return every year or so to see what may have become of it. I had spent so many years on this sight and a few stories had stuck with me all this time. You may never check this message due to many very valid reasons - such as your personal life, ambitions as an independent writer, or simply because you do not desire to - all of which I respect immensely. Much moreso than I had the foresight to empathize with as a youth who lived perpetually in fantasy. I remember posting anonymously here - and then as MO. I look back and cringe at my lack of understanding - both as an artist myself and also as a person who had grown a lot and understands so much more keenly the depths of not just the demand you had upon you as a talented writer in a fandom absolutely starving for quality content - but also of the unhealthy relationship dynamic presented and how something i once naïvely perceived as romance is just a soul rippingly intense and nuanced vision of the traumas of children who grew up as soldiers through the lense of a popular series. It's gripping, it's real, it's painful, it's complex. I see my draw to it as an adult - it was so well crafted and fresh that I could not resist - but hadn't the foresight to to understand what was being exposed with this narrative. I appreciate it much more now, for a lot more than I was able to comprehend in my own traumatized youth who didn't really comprehend what a healthy love looked like, and also as an artist who understands moreso now than ever how stifling the demands of others can be to a creative voice.

I wish you luck in your life and creative endeavors, god knows you have talent

Im lost. I don’t know what’s going on.

Hmmm the pills have come up so often. I can’t figure out why.
From the start I didn’t find it off doing a parameter Check of your home, as I do those regularly.
I’ve never felt shame or less than, or in need of pills. Yes I have anxiety, but it’s not that abnormal.

Everyone popping pills right and left, makes me wonder if the pharmaceutical companies are paying you to slide it in to stories as advertisement hahahhah

We like Susu-kun a lot. He is very kind. But he did not listen to Uchiha-san when he should have." Sakura didn't respond to their warning, nor did she heed it, although she did wonder where it was coming from

Uhggggg it’s so forced. Sasuke who previously was frigid is now madly possessive of her, and can’t even stand another boy interact with her. Not only that, but he’s no longer discrete, everyone openly talks about it. How dense is she?

Just the behavior is so middle school.

was true. Sakura knew she shouldn't have been arguing, but she still couldn't help it.

Seriously, she’s being very immature. There are times I want to shake her or punch her in the face. Why does she have to be a burden?

I like it. Although it’s weird that they keep insinuating that anybody getting (any guy) close to Sakura gets in trouble. A little obvious since both Hanabi and Suigetsu said it. I dunno I like it subtle.

I read this fiction repeatedly whenever I can. This story is well written and so creative.

aaahhhh.. i knew something was gonna be fucked up w juugo

ahhhhh.. sasuke you buttmunch...

i really hope susu ends up with sakura i love him so so so sososososo much

im so obsessed with this

AHHHHH... sakura 333 i loooooooove suru, also.

Man! Please update

I just finished this FF and I must say this is one of the best stories I’ve ever read. Your plot line, your grammar and story telling, the way the characters are, the OC (which I love!) everything was perfect. I don’t know if you’ll ever update again, but thank you so much for writing this. I binged read this in a day. I couldn’t stop reading. I will follow the story in hopes one day this can be finished, but again, thank you! Don’t ever stop writing cause u have a gift.

Susu, i meant. Disregard the other word lol.
