I'm not sure what else to say about it, but it's so sad. Except for the engagement to the lovable street punk, which was cute.
I had this terrible vision of Mai falling out of the Jeep (you know, because it wasn't stopped moving) and for a second I honestly wondered why the terrible accident she was forseen to have was so...lame. Also why the story was so short. But fortunately, in the end it just turned out to be terribly depressing.

As for the terribly depressing, I think that maybe I didn't make some parts of it clear now. At the end, I stated deliberately 'the future clouds over' as a way of saying that Isis can't even remember what was supposed to happen any longer when Mai kisses her, which could be taken to mean that the future has been changed. After all, Seto managed to change the future, so if Isis didn't have a vision of Mai kissing her, then that could have changed Mai's future as well - meaning that Mai won't die like that after all.
...think that I need to make it more explicit that Mai might be saved? I meant to give it an ambigious feel, but not enough people are picking up on the possibly happy ending.

Heh...and look at that...I see *PLOT*, definite defined plot in this one. So there. >.> *stubborn* See...Mai goes to learn what the problem is, learns of it, and I love the vagueness given. I happen to like short pieces, so? It gives you a sense of possibilities. Whereas, something like the actual show itself, takes away most of the mystery. You know just how things are going to end for Atemu. There is no possibility or open roads to explore and think about. It leaves nothing open for you to have fun with.
While overall depressing, I thought the last line uplifted the piece. >__< It was the way how the depressing vision was cut off by something like a kiss. One of the best ways to get someone to stop talking is to get their mouth busy with something else. That adds a lighter feel to the piece by itself...I'm also taking connotation from the act of ( ... )

As for the coupling, it's actually my favorite shoujo-ai couple in YGO but I don't think there are many fics with it. At all. I've only seen one other actually, but that was really good... And, out of curiousity, what sort of couple would I not be able to redeem?

Therefore, the only pairing that I'd even attempt writing from that list would be Marik/Atemu, and even that's rather unlikely, since it messes with my OTP. *pats her psychoshipping*
I'll remember that you want to avoid them though, in case I ever decided to rec fics for my flist. I think that I saw a meme which asks you to rec a fic for every person on your list.
