First off, sorry I didn't get a chance to comment yesterday when this went up! My work schedule has been a bit crazy, so I didn't get a chance to check the comm until today.

That being said, I was super stoked when I saw I got a space travel AU, and the fic did not disappoint at all! I absolutely adore your world building in this fic. I love that it has a bit of a Star Trek vibe with the color-coded shirts, but it's still very much it's own thing. I love the idea of space cruises and the way worked it into this. The murder-mystery aspect was also really engaging and the pacing was great. Your Massu-voice was spot-on, too, and it and all the interaction between all the NEWS boys made this fic a great read.

I also loved the cameos from Maru, Yasu, Yoko and Tsubasa! And you even worked in a Maruyama and Shige EVA joke!!! Ah, anon, you managed to sense my love of Maru and Shige's nerdy fanboy tendencies, and I love you for it. <3 Oh, and also for the crossdressing and planet names because both of those were brilliant touches. Koyama being fascinated with his breasts was especially great.

This was an excellent fic and I really, really enjoyed reading it. Thank you so much for writing it for me! <3

I just finished re-reading this fic, and I feel like my first comment doesn't do justice to how much I enjoyed it, so I just wanted to drop another one and thank you again for writing it for me! I think it's one of my very favorite space AUs that I've read, and I read a lot of space AUs. Definitely my favorite in JE fandom, hands down. I will totally be pimping it in the future to anyone who wants good space AU and/or NEWS/Massu-centric fic!

(The fact that I stayed up to re-read it when I should really be sleeping should really say something about how much I liked it. This fic > sleep, and I really like sleep. Thank you, anon! ♥)

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I was sad I'm not super familiar with all the shows you mentioned in your sign up, aside from Star Trek color-coding. >.> And a bit nervous about setting it all on a cruise liner, which isn't usually what people mean when they say space ships. orz　Your comment made me super happy, thank you!
