Oh gosh. I feel so bad for Mana. So little time left!

Ack. So many feelz from this chapter. That was a really freaky fit for Allen... and finding uot that he's been dealing with this the entire time is no good. But the bits with Maddie are so sweet. She's so much better than Marie ever was.

I hate seeing Mana getting worse and worse as the story goes on. Because this isn't nothing. But at least he's having a great time and Allen's having fun and they're almost a real family. :)

Oh this was really good. It was sad seeing the setbacks and how much Allen doesn't understand some things. But it's going to be okay. Mana's being amazing about all of this.

Well, I'm glad that worked out. These guys are all one huge happy dysfunctional family. And it's really fun to see. But it will all be okay now. :)

I. Love. Allen.

The kid's a genius.

Well, it would only make sense for Mana to start dreaming about killing people... monsters... things... too.

Oh wow. Yes, things are happening quickly. I really loved the scene in the pawn shop. So funny. XD Definitely a needed break amid the craziness of the story.

Ah. So that's how it happened. Mana really transformed there, didn't he? It was completely understandable, though.

Murphy. Everything that can go wrong, will.

That is the most horrible turn that this story could take. And yet. It makes perfect sense. And my earlier statement stands a hundred fold: I hate Smith. But Allen's comment after the earlier incident makes so much more sense now.

But poor Allen. And poor Mana... knowing exactly why he wasn't there.

Oh gosh. He's having the same dreams Allen does in the actual story. That's just a little freaky. And seeing older Allen... especially looking like THAT... must have been the freakiest thing ever for the poor guy. And would make Allen's response even that much more harrowing. Wow.

Oh my gosh. What a revelation. Things are starting to get hairy. Eek. Chuck revealing everything... well, not quite everything because who would believe THAT... and then dying. wow.

Oh gosh. That's so sad. I'm glad that Allen is able to see the situation perfectly, though, and is helping Isabella out. They had too much fun with Mana! XD I'm hoping that this means what I was scared of won't happen. But then of course the Bishop is coming around...

Ah, things are moving onward. And I hate Mana's dreams.

Loved the phrasing of this line, though: The best case scenario would mean having to use a cane to assist in walking; the worst would mean that there would be no need for a cane, for there would be no walking at all.

Errrr... that was a really uncomfortable chapter. Not how you wrote it- it was great- but just what happened. Things are going to go downhill from here. (nuuu!)
