Reviews for One Lousy Joke |
---|
![]() ![]() ![]() And even after ten years still one of the best stories I've ever read. No matter how often I read it. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Please forgive me for coming so late to the party, but I've only recently become acquainted with NWN2, and as so many other reviewers have already said, Sand's voice was utterly perfect, as was Casavir's utter lack of humor... I think casivir telling a joke might very well signify that the apocalypse is nigh... |
![]() ![]() ![]() I loved this. In hindsight, however, it is not wise to eat and read at the same time. |
![]() ![]() ![]() A wonderful story to read and a lifesaver during a boring day at work. I really love how you managed to capture Sands personality and I hope and wish that you will continue writing more stories about nwn2! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Just re-read this for the umpteenth time and finally just felt I absolutely had to let you know that this is by far the best one shot I've ever read. Sand in the game is cool. Sand in your stories is absolutely amazing. Anyways, read it, loved it, please write more. Cheers. |
![]() ![]() This was very funny and in character. I actually laughed out loud in several parts which doesn't happen often. :) |
![]() ![]() ![]() This is brilliantly done. Your Sand is perfect, and the timing couldn't be better. I love how you've kept his research methods at the forefront of his mind while he has a parallel conversation with the KC. My only problem is, I work in a library and have been snarfing my own laughter...I think my sinuses have imploded. What an hysterical story. Excellent! |
![]() ![]() ![]() This made me laugh so hard my mother came from all the way across the house to give me a funny look. Great story, great characterization of Sand (always how I imagined him!), and awesome dialogue. |
![]() ![]() ![]() LOLOLOL! So cool! |
![]() ![]() ![]() I hurt myself laughing, this is brilliant. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Beautiful. You use perspective expertly in creating Sand's wry inner voice. The story is balanced and hugely entertaining, just like the elf himself. I think you write Sand better than the actual NWN2 writers did - unlike them, you keep up his flow of sarcasm without it ever seeming strained. I wish I could write half so well as you. |
![]() ![]() ![]() This is excellent. You have Sand's 'voice' down pat and the comment about dressing up as a Wendersnaven made me laugh. It's a pity there are so many fics about the terminally boring paladin and not the bitchy, world-weary elf. So this is refreshing. |
![]() ![]() ![]() I saw that this was in my favourites list, but I had been remiss in reviewing it. I think I'll echo what ryoushi-x said: "I loved the dialogue you gave Sand. I could hear him perfectly in my head and that's how I know it's character-perfect speech." That's my benchmark as to perfect character depiction too: those scary voices in my head. In your case, they rang true. A great read that also made me smile, chuckle and laugh at times. |
![]() ![]() ![]() I think I cracked a rib laughing too much...' XD |
![]() ![]() *giggle* I don't even know that pack of characters, and it's still amusing as heck. Pointy ears! |
