I definitely love it. :D Oh, Kentarou, you amuse me so. The glue was an excellent idea, and it had a very nice fusion of the prompts...

BUT. The best of all was the dawning realisation of Watanuki's predicament at the very end. "OH, HELL NO!" made me laugh so damn hard that the librarian, who I am normally on quite good terms with, started giving me stern looks. For some reason the line "the only thing that can break the adhesive is the truth." also had me laughing. Perhaps it's simply the dramatics that Yuuko used in my head while saying this.

But thank you, thank you. This was amazing and excellent.

I am so pleased you liked it. When writing for a specific audience, it matters to me that I hit the mark. ^_^

I had the OH HELL NO written pretty much before the whole piece, since Watanuki spazzing is so much fun. I'm glad it made you snicker.

[iambickilometer]

Well, you most assuredly hit the mark. :D

It was wonderful. Spastic!Watanuki is one of the most amazing things ever to write or read.

providing it's done well but you don't have to worry about that.

Spastic!Watanuki is one of those things that either works or it doesn't. From my point of view, there needs to be something to trigger him - he tends to stew (even just a little) first before exploding. He DOES have a minute amount of patience.

[iambickilometer]

That's definitely true. It's not a sudden "YOU STOP EXISTING NOW" because Doumeki's appeared in the corner of his vision. Something must be said to which he can take offense first.

But done well, it's amazing.

I sometimes think we, as writers, have a tendency to oversimplify things. A relationship isn't on one note - it's about each situation, and the different reactions (usually subtly so) that happen. ^_^

that line just now: the only thing that can break the adhesive is the truth

reminded me of that song from Enchanted (which i just finished watching a few minutes ago) - where the girl goes on and on singing that the only thing that can break the spell is love's first kiss - maybe dou and wata should do that to break the glue? lol...

I wrote it before Enchanted came out, but there is a certain similarity. It's so Yuuko, though, to have Mysterious Glue with a Clause.
