"When i was reading the smut scene, i was afraid that this Elf might discover him and mistakenly jump in to save him from that tree...." - kiki
kiki - Can I get away with saying close, but no cigar? Or, well, maybe I should be saying: right direction, but no cigar. To be honest, this was one of the ideas I toyed with when the Ashura series was just a tiny, tiny little idea. It's not exactly what will happen, though. -w-
"Oooh, I like this chapter! It's a nice mix of plot development and hot tentacle lovin'.
My fingers are crossed for Ashura that somehow this elf encounter will lead to better treatment in his village. Or better yet, escape from the village. Heh, I have a mental picture of Ashura running down the road away from his village with the tentacle plant disguised as a house plant under his arm!
I like how this story is opening up, and where you are going with it. I only wish somehow that we could hear the plant's point of view. Yeah, 'plant point of view' sounds weird, but it does seem to be a sentient creature, with lovely little tender gestures. I bet that would be an interesting writing challenge... ***looks at Jotaku with puppy dog eyes***" - circe
circe - Reading how you this this should or could go is very amusing to me. To be honest, I have something completely different planned out, but it's nice to think of how different everything would be and how things would have ended up going if those things did happen. *takes a moment to imagine*
In regards to your plea, it is nearly impossible to answer it without giving away important plot info, unfortunately, but I will say that you will, eventually, get your wish. Just calm down for now, okay? Go look at some kittens or something. xD
"I never read stories like this. I always avoid contro, beasts (ewwww) stories. I even try to stay away from AU and Mpreg stories, but I did click on this story only because there was nothing new updated and I was bored.
I must say, your writing is impeccable. It is eloquent, your descriptions are so vivid, I feel I'm a fly on the vine witnessing this!
I truly enjoyed reading your story even tho it involved a vine! lol You are an extremely talented writer." - Lisa
Lisa - Uwah~ Whenever I get a review I instantly flip my shit, but I must say I flipped a little more shit a little more flippier than usual when I read yours. I mean, it isn't every day that you get someone to like something they normally wouldn't due to awesome opossum writing skills, ne? Or that you're told your writing skills are so awesome opossum that they got someone to like something they normally wouldn't. ...Oh my, I feel like I'm writing in circles. @A@;;
Anyway--thank you SO MUCH for enjoying it, and I hope you'll continue reading? ;w;
(On a side note, I'm not much into beast and I absolutely abhor Mpreg, as well, but... for whatever reason, tentacles are just... different. Dunno why. O_o; )
"I love chapter two. Ihope Ashura will be able to make friends with that elf lady. I love the vine! He is so damn good in bed (or I should say in the woods)! I wish he could be rescued." - Kylee
Kylee - All I suppose I can tell you is: Keep reading! ;'D
"Love the story far no complaints what so ever. Thou I have to ask:
Is the vine monster actually a humanoid being turned into a plant?
Are you going to tell us if it can really feel and understand human language?
Are you going to make Ashura's wish of seeing the world come true?
Is Ashura going to learn magic? If yes will he his vine monster a humanoid form and go with him on advantures and travel the world?
Will the story have a happy ending?(Please answer this one please)
Will Ashura and his vine monster stay together? (please say they'll stay together, forever is possible XD)
I know you won't answer all of the questions since you'd be giving away the plot thou it wouldn't ruin the storie the slightest, since knowing the destination and knowing the way to reach it is not the same.
But if you could, would you please answer the last two questions (the ones that start with will XP).
Another this is I went to your profile to see what other GREAT stories you've written and I have to admint I wassn't dissapointed althouh if I could I would like to make a small request. I really love your stories one of wich is "Jshayel's Havoc", but I noticed you haven't updated it for a while. So my request, if you would write a small note either at the begining or the end of the next chapter of "Tentacle Love Story", if you are going to continue that story. I has a lot of potantial and could be something equal as great as the Tentacle series. So please write if you will continue it and if so when we can expect the next chapter.
I hope I'm not being difficult.
Thank you for all the work you've done and keep up the good work.
Love your stories XXX lol XD(huggles for you, if you'll accept them)" - Nina
Nina - First off, HOLY SHIT! Such an awesomely long review! Think this is one of the longest reviews I've ever recieved! (Good job!) And now, I am going to tell you, for most of your questions and the answers to them, just try to think positively. ;'D Yes, eventually you will learn more about Ashura's vined beast, if it can feel, and what it thinks--but that won't be for a while yet. I can also already tell you that, yes, Ashura will be going places (seeing as the summary already gives it away). And, if you checked out my profile (and read through it), you would have read that I love happy endings. This mean just about all of my stories will have happy endings (the Tentacle Story stories included). So, yes, this will have a happy ending, and happy endings in my book means the two main characters end up together. :'D
Regarding your question about Jshayel's Havoc, I would like to say that, yes, I do plan to continue it. For the time being, though, I am REALLY into my Tentacle series, so I probably won't update it for a while yet. D:
I do have the entire story planned out, though, so I can easily revisit it and continue it at any time.
You are in no way being difficult, and I am very thankful for you review. I would rather get a million questions that I can't truly answer than just a "great story". It lets me know that I'm doing a good enough job to make people wonder and lets me try to be creative as I give hints towards the ending. x'D
*hugs back* I hope to see more reviews from you again soon! x'3
"Jotaku,
I thank you for the honor of recieving the "Driving Review of the Week" award. *bows* I deeply appreciate it. *bows*
and so! We get to meet Miss Elf-with-the-very-long-and-hard-to-pronounce-name! :D
Naia (sorta like Gaia?) is rather eccentric for the stereotypical Elf. I look forward to reading more about her.
and... I wonder what stories the Mayor and everyone else will be telling her about Ashura. :(
I feel sad for Ashura again today. Honestly, this non-explainable shunning is so rubbish. And to think his village is gonna burn his beloved plant down (When I don't know). Huff!
the whole 'The plant is gonna get burned down' part is a mega spoiler... Next time. DON'T TELL US!!! It would give more IMPACT and WOW factor, for when we finally read that part.
But since you have decided to tell that bit to us, it gives me hope that you have MORE EXCITING things in store *eyes sparkle* Yaaaay~~~
I also wonder, if you will still be able to induce tears, even after we already know what's gonna happen. *rubs hands* let's wait and see yeah? ^___^
Anyway, if Ashura is getting loved by his dear tentacle plant on a close-to-daily basis, i seriously wonder how he keeps up with the discomfort afterwords. Especially with the type of job he holds! alot of walking involved. Strong teen arn't ya. *pats Ashura on the back* Keep it up dude, you're doing great! ^___^ I admire your will to go on despite the harshness you have to deal with daily.
Not to mention, Ashura is very smart! I think this chapter has opened my eyes to the 'universe' you have here.
Stellishore, and the capital Deth. I think we will be seeing more of these places in the future hmmmm~~~ heheh ;)
Daia wouldn't have appeared in this story for some minor reason after all~
Okay! *sqweee*
Looking forward to your update!!! *jumps*
I can't wait to see how this series develops! The Fantasy aspect is looking very promising~ ^____^" - Nekoii-desu
Nekoii-desu - Oh my. Here I was thinking Nina had won the longest review award, but holy cow! oAo Where ever do I start? Lessee... I guess I'll start with Naiaelith and her name.
When I had Ashura try to pronounce it, I was hoping that would show people how it was said. Nuh-eye-(uh)-lith. The (uh) is very small, and hardly hearable. If you said the name fast, it's just sound like nuh-eye-lith. It doesn't really sound like Gaia, 'cause there's that weird 'uh' before and the eye-sound. (Guhaia?) XD
And, well, about how eccentric she is? I would call her quirky, but I'm not sure if she's that far. (Have you ever read Lord of the Rings? Or The Hobbit? Those elves are WAY weirder than mine.)
*cowers* >ATentacle Truth Story. So, while I am giving away something in Love, you really have absolutely no idea what's going to happen in Truth. owo
I hope that makes up for my giving away important plot details?
Fffft... it's funny you should ask all these questions about how Ashura can handle the constant sexing. I believe this new chapter shall answer your questions right off the bat. ;w; Ffft....
And I am glad you think he's smart and strong. I hate making wimpy uke-boys. -A- I try my hardest not to make them too weak. It's hard sometimes, though. *nods* -w-
...... *hopes you don't find the reason I have Naiaelith here minor* >A>;;

Chapter o3 Post-Chapter Author Notes:
Wooh, so, more plot is being revealed! I know you guys may be wondering how any of this could really be all that important (besides the fact that it lets us see into Ashura's past a little better), but let me tell you: it is all very, very tightly woven together with future plot threads. In fact, some of you sharper readers may be able to figure a few things out by the end of Love! For those who need things flashed in front of their face on a big, neon yellow sign, though (like me), don't worry, everything will become clear by the end of Truth. I am toying around with the idea of a story which would follow Ashura's dad, though. The story would basically tell about C'rem's life and all he's been through. If I did do this, it would probably give a lot of insight into Ashura's family and why he is the way he is, but it wouldn't really be necessary. Whether or not I do it just depends on how interested you guys are. If no one seems to care, I probably won't go through with it, but if it seems like people want the story, I will write it.
On a side note, I do hope I'm not laying a few things on too thick? I mean, some of this is kind of difficult to write, you know? I've always had friends, and both of my parents are still alive. I have really no clue what it would be like to not have those. The closest I can do, is try to seriously imagine how I would act if I were this person and in that sort of situation. Because of this, I feel I may... be making Ashura just a little pathetic? I certainly hope not, though.
And I also hope that no one is getting odd ideas about Ashura and Naiaelith. I mean, this is a yaoi, so there will obviously be no m/f couples, but even I feel like some moments are just awkward. (Then again, that could just be because I am a terrible pervert...)
Anyways, I hope everyone is finding things enjoyable? Next chapter should be a bit cheerier and with smut. Though I do warn you, a storm is coming.
