This was so sweet! You really managed to take a light-hearted story and turn it into something intense and gripping - I could picture Sasuke and Sakura's interactions, and each one felt so beautiful. Awkward and subtle maybe, but all the more beautiful. Sakura's deterioration felt so gritty and real, and for a while I thought she might have actually died. Of course if you had taken it that route, I have no doubt you would've been able to pull it off. This ending was adorable, though. Your Sasuke managed to strike the perfect balance between socially stunted and being a softie deep, deep, deep down. I loved this so much. Ripples will probably be one of my favorite SasuSaku fics ever, but it's the little things like these that make each day better.

Beautiful story loved it all Sakura's a badass getting that cure for the antidoct love all the couples and Tsunade, Kakashi, Gai & Shuzune love the Naruto universe as a whole.

Reading this during somewhat post pandemic

This story is a masterpiece. The fact that I've re-read this about 10 times in the last eight years I've been in this fandom is testament to this fact. Thank for sharing your work with us!

I think it's even better than Ripples,
good job!

I'm really touched to the core remembering my own deepest desires, the urge to give it all for a loved one who was going. and then that super cool ending. oh, rock on \m/

no, no, no, no, no, no, no... I'm crying. T_T oh no. oh no.

beautifully written. as someone who lost somebody, that emotional lashing by Sasuke and Sakura was just too relatable. it's when everyone's tired, everyone knows of the possibilities, everyone has a word of shame or blame, that's when everything bubbles up to the surface and presents itself as the multiple slaps of truth. in the end, there's nothing left to do but be there for each other

I was really reminded of this story the first time I knew of Covid. Now I'm gonna read this again, finally!

This is sooo goodd! Damn... thumbs up Yellow Mask! You did a good job!

This story hits different after COVID. Still amazingly sweet and dramatic as hell, but god, going through a pandemic, having to quarantine, worrying about vaccination, all of it changes your perspective. I can’t even describe it well but its there, a tiny shift in my view of the world.

I think after rereading this I’ll have a better appreciation for what the characters have gone through.

Not you predict COVID. (Sorry if doesn't make sense. Im new learning English)

Haha! This fic made me laugh and cry, it was a great read! Thank you for writing this!

Hey author, did you perhaps have a premonition of COVID-19? How is this story so cool!
