oh kat... this is wonderfully good and so sweet! i just love it. :)
i love how heero's always known, and duo coming into that discovery. i love the pub scene and heero getting a little bit drunk. didn't care for jake, even if he was needed as a catalyst. :) and i liked the idea of them coming together and duo not able to even undress!
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed! And I'm glad you thought it was sweet; it was intended for the bakery, and I was worried that it got a bit angsty in the middle, so that's a relief! Thanks so much! ^_^
well... *squirms* it probably was a bit too angsty for the bakery but since it didn't last long, i'm thinking it'd be okay... and since it already had received a comment, i don't think sunny or merula will have issue with it.
it's a very wonderful story and i did enjoy reading it muchly. thank you again. :)
I loved Heero's whole discussion with himself on what type of singing would be best for his cactus. And this line: Loudly, and with complete disregard for the fact that he was invisible. I hate it when people don't recognise my invisibility!
Gods, that was soo good. I like the development in their relationship, the idea with the blooming cactus and how the POV changed between the chapters. And simply your choice of word and your style.
I can only repeat myself, it's always such a great pleasure to read your stuff :) Thanks!
Duo's POV was serendipity really. This wasn't meant to be a chapter fic, but once Jake arrived on the scene, Duo just wanted to stick his oar in, and it turned into a handy way to hide what Heero was thinking.
The cactus took me by surprise; I got to the end of the story, and realised that it was Duo who was being prickly after all. All along, I thought it was Heero, with the cold shell. Shows what I know!
And I'm so glad you like the style. I have a huge admiration for people who can express themselves sparsely and concisely, and without exaggerating everything, (my little 30 pge book on writing says that extremes should be used sparingly O_o) but I can't seem to do it for the life of me!! As soon as my characters get on the page they start being melodramatic all over the place, and I end up with 11000 words of story, where nothing actually happens.
Hm, you think Duo was being prickly? I don't know, I'd say he is/was more slithery. Hard to get a real hold of him... so as a plant he'd probably be an alga or something *lol
( ... )
I want to write a review for this that is worthy of the fic. I really do. The problem is that I am completely incoherent from the greatness that is this fic, and the image of Heero singing to a cactus is absolutely adorable, and Spike Jr. is my new all-time favorite plant in a story. He beats Crowley's house plants in Good Omens. That is how much I love this fic.
I will go away now before you think I am completely insane. Which I am, but that's hardly the point, now, is it?
He beats Crowley's house plants in Good Omens Wow!! That is the best compliment *ever*. Although, I have to say that I was very attached to Spike by the end of the fic, too, almost more than the characters! I'm almost tempted to buy a cactus.^_^ And incoherence is good; it's nice to know that I'm not the only one!! Thanks heaps, for this, and all your other kind feedback. It's much appreciated! Kath^___^
