This was a very well written fic that wasn’t too long to read. You gave a lot of life and unexpected background into character motivations that I found refreshing. This tended to be on the more angsty side and not romantically focused in the slightest (which I should have known since it was not marked as romance), but knowing that it would ultimately be NejiHina made me think there would be more of a buildup or more interaction between the two (which would have been nice). Yet I’m appreciative of the fact that you were entirely up front and honest about your story. Thanks for writing and giving us a happy ending!

Oh heck yeah! That’s my girl!

Talk about angsty...

Couldn’t access your “extended editions” but after reading what’s posted I’m glad I didn’t. Great writing but I feel horrified for poor Neji. I can’t endure more D: Hanabi has some serious daddy issues!

This chapter was so heavy...

Oomph.

This is one of the most brilliant fics I’ve ever read.

Hanabi was always 50/50 and it’s very interesting to see her step into the darker side despite her sister.

I wish the anime series had more NaruHina moments. It would make their ultimate pairing in canon easier to stomach. I’m glad they ended up together for Hinata’s sake but it was so one-sided and Naruto was so oblivious and chased Sakura shallowly for so long it seems unfair to Hinata.

I don’t read a lot of ShinoxHinata. There’s a lot of refreshing takes on Hinata’s classic background in here. I approve.

Poor Hina-Chan

Himiko and Hizashi huh? And Hiashi’s a scamp!

Wow. Just wow. You write so beautifully and I was floored by 1) Hanabi as a villain (you know you did well when the audience loves to hate her) and 2) Neji's characterization. Somehow, you got in his head and made him come alive. Thank you for this poignant story that made me feel all the feels!

This is short but it's one of the most beautiful story I've read I my life so wonderful emotional and detailed thank you very much for such beautiful story

Always love dark hinata fic...great chapter

Honestly, your story is so close to my heart. . I remember reading it first when I was a teen, I was in awe. Reading it as an adult, I am amazed once again. Thank you so much.
