Dragon's Tongue chapter 3 . 5/17/2007 As I surf late at night (4am, to be precise) I suddenly see this update, and find a reason to stay up another few minutes _ 'Running gag for a sole-comedy film?' I think I'm missing a reference, but I'm also missing Z's. Ah, yes, money; the great equalizer. "Crazy environmentalists thwarted by parking meter." That sorta thing. Poor Team A. While a part of me is sad for Kenyon's lack of interest in books, another part of me is thankful that no dictionaries are made into films. _ Judging by the description and Ralts, it's clear who's finally appeared. Incidentally, Ralts' must have perfect poker faces... Wow. So even movie-watching Kenyon lacks Kaiba-level resistance to sleep. Surprising. Miranda is a Pokemagnet! Hilarious AND pitiable. So paralysis is the next big thing in running gags. Or is it the licking in general? Either way, payback. A great chapter, with a nice balance of humor and plot. Til the next one comes along, cya! |
Gema J. Gall chapter 3 . 5/16/2007 I'll get the chapter 3 reviews going-although you got most of what I had to say from proofreading. I love Kenyon's movie quirk. Don't remember how it developed, but it's so perfect. I love his innocent nature in this chapter. Generally speaking, very good dialogue with a good balance of details on the setting. There's also a sense of movement too from the characters, but that could be brought out more (the nitpicky comment from the creative writing grad). And like I commented before-David has a lot of attention given to him, so I hope to see him enter in again later on. Kenyon has so many great movie moments in this. _ Yay Saphira and Ralts cameo! Once more, good dialogue and scene! Kenyon and movies again-and I'm reminded of all the movies I have to see. The closing scenes are great too! Happy time updating! |
Dragon's Tongue chapter 2 . 2/7/2007 Yay 4 updates! Ah, Zigzagoons. Natural Item-finders; they pull more than one adventure out of slumps in the early, early, early parts of their journies. "I guess pokèmon prefer berries over money.” “Well, Scout does.” Heh, only TR's Meowth prevents this from being a legendary quote. Ahh, so that's what those ledges are! *feels out of the loop, having been exploiting them for several games without realizing what they were* Makes sense. “Um…I have a question.” “As long as it’s not about my eye,” Miranda answered plainly. Kenyon just stared more until Miranda started again. “Is it about my eye?” *hums theme song* Kenyon's Eevee-filled life drives one to murderous envy. And an Eevee movie party would be awesome. Blaziken's fanbase grows! Except not really. Full-action deepsea battle! Ahab he's not but Briney's tougher than he looks. And perverted Remoraids... weird. Mixed movie quotes ftw! Whoa... that was deep. Poor Nightwind... the symbolism of smashing the ball was great, too. Hmm, this way of reviewing feels odd, but I guess I got more detail in. A great chapter all around, can't wait til next time! Til then, cya! |
UnluckyAmulet chapter 1 . 2/7/2007 This is definately good. I like the details. Though I think maybe you need to cut down the text a bit more. |
Gema J. Gall chapter 2 . 2/7/2007 Yay for ch2! Good opening, though one thing of nitpickiness I didn't think about before; low tide is in the morning, high tide is in the evenings. You describe Scout so cutely _ . I also like the literary form of the game ledges. Hmm, should there be a reason the Briney agrees to ferry them to Slateport? Blind in the right eye, nice flaw. Too few OCs have them. Hm...so Kenyon's 16 and Miranda's 18? *needs to double check as she is so bad with numbers* The travel section of this is kinda slow, but needed to fill the characters and readers in on the situation. Plus, it does show Miranda and Kenyon becoming friends, which makes them traveling together seem logical rather than forced. Hearing a rehash of the legend makes me wonder if there's more to the origin of the orbs than was just stated. -_- Kenyon and Eevees so cute! lol, and I love all of his references to candy. Oh, I just realized how ingenius the Mago Berry thing is. Zigzagoon, being a poke-rodent, would have constantly growing teeth and need to chew something hard to keep from getting an overbite (like a hard Mago Berry). That is a -nice- touch! Heh, Kenyon sounds a bit like a breeder-in-training and Miranda like a watcher-in-training. Nice details on the Dewford Pokecenter. And Miranda really is skeptical of Kenyon, isn't she? lol, I think Kenyon needs a head pillow every time he calls home. His parents seem like fun people though, at least they have senses of humor. _ yay for Ruby. I hope Miranda is a quick sketcher, not sure how long a Blaziken could hold a pose in mid-kick. Then again, a strong one should be able to easily. Hmm...a secret note? Ghost pokemon coming from the ghosts of deceased pokemon? I'll need to check, but it might be real weird if they're in a breedable egg group. _ I think I'm going to think myself in circles on that one. Nitpicky-ness: "Shallow out" is "bottomed out" in nautical terms...I think. Briney and a Wailmer. Cool _ Good battle, too. Wonder if he'll get a cameo later on with a Wailord? Definately like the Miranda and Kenyon interaction during this battle. lol, fighting against a random tongue. Aww, Ken/Mir moment. I like the old-fashioned pokeball. The scene with Haunter is very touching, I really can see something like that happening in a real episode (with the original voices, of course). And a sweet ending to this chapter, see ya next round! |
Gema J. Gall chapter 1 . 1/31/2007 Yay for revival and coauthorship! And triple YAY for Kenyon! "infamous Knight family" wouldn't it be "famous" since "infamous" means 'famous for a bad reputation'? There's some missing punctation here and there. There's some very good descriptions during his journey to Rustburo. It goes fast, but that's not the focus of the story, so it's okay. The phrase "the trainer" does start to wear after a while. Gotta love Kenyon's movie addiction. Ecruteak and the Miltank Farms? Wow, they are pretty close to each others hometowns. Kinda cool. It would be easy for them to find common grounds because of that. Perfect introduction of Team Aqua. And a PERFECT reaction from Kenyon. Cute shuppet _ "It wasn’t a pleasant," it wasn't a pleasant what? Perfect reaction again when Kenyon takes over the battle. And ni~ice arrival from Officer Jenny. Very in-character. And I like the pun about how adults trust random trainers in the game. Not very realistic, yet it does happen. YAY for Kenyon again. And again! *sniffle* Poor Sapphire. Awesome way of revealing everything that Kenyon had in his backpack *laughing heard in the BG*. Nice ending. It's good to see them hanging out and getting to know each other. I look forward to seeing where this fic will end up. Happy typing! |
Dragon's Tongue chapter 1 . 1/30/2007 My first review using Gema's "type as you read" technique! i think... ...and, of course, I get too interested and don't comment until halfway through. (Heh, flying purple hankies... that's one way to describe a Shuppet I never thought of.) Miranda understands her Pokemon? Somehow, that's less surprising than it should be, given her other roles, but I like it. Nice battle. *tries to restrain an 'aw' at the Whismur* "Knights of Eevee" ...that has a strangely appropriate ring to it. There'll probably be a Round Table's worth of Eeveelutions eventually. *grins* Well, it's safe to say I already like this fic. A nice, half-action, half-plot opening chapter, and the character introductions are great, too. I'll be keeping an eye out for updates. Til next time, cya! |
