I, to be very honest, have been a very bad person lately. I forgot to feed my dog yesterday, I have been generally cranky, I have thought bad thoughts about my fellow drivers, and most importantly I have been neglecting to review this series which I have fallen in love with. Heero and Duo are both perfectly in character throughout, which makes it a real joy to read. Duo is my favorite character in the series, and it always makes me smile when an author just gets him. Your Duo is rather silly (think face painting...) but he is never predictable or stupid. He probably makes mistakes like all other people, but no more than what is expected.

Heero is also wonderful to read. He is quiet, but not rude, and sort of unsure of his relationships without being under-confident in himself. I love him making the Easter Egg basket just because he wants to, even though it isn't something that is required for the holiday. He is a deep guy and that is most enjoyable to find. So thank you for making believable characters.

The story line is also unique and fun. I liked the unexpectedness of each chapter. You always made some sort or reference to actions of the previous chapter to keep it flowing and connected, but there was always something new going on.

So - wonderful series. I'm glad to be partly responsible for bringing you back over to the dark side (Gundam Wing fanfiction :) ). I hope that you decide to stay with it - especially so that you can finish that other series you've been working on *cough*.

Thank you so very much. Your feedback is always so well thought out and specific, it makes my day to get an e-mail alert indicating you've commented on something I've written.

I'm really happy that you enjoyed the series and found them in character. I'd originally not planned to connect them, but when I wrote the first two, they seemed to flow together, and I thought I might have more fun pacing the seven challenges as a series in an attempt to further their relationship. I enjoyed writing it and am so pleased you liked it. Thank you so much for letting me know what you thought, and I do have plans to finish that other series; I'm just not sure when. I think I see about two more parts for that one.

Thanks again! =)
