I love fics that have a real feeling to them. Not only did you capture Kaidou in an interesting, new light, and still stayed in his character but you managed to squeeze some teenage angst/very real like feelings in there.

Yay, I enjoyed it throughout. <3

sorry I haven't showered you with more praises on "I am the Walrus" yet, it's just that work ate all my free time. I'll do it asap though!!

[prillalar]

Thanks so much! I find Kaidoh fascinating -- I'm always trying to get into his head. And poor boy. :(

Don't worry about Walrus comments if you don't have the time. I know you enjoyed it. :)

Aww, poor Kaidoh. I do wonder how the other players must feel about Ryouma just breezing in and taking a spot without much apparent effort, and in his first year.

But things are going to be pretty tough for the team after the third years all graduate... there are only a few second-year regulars, and no notable first years that we've seen besides Ryouma.

[prillalar]

I know, my poor baby. :(

I imagine most schools are in a similar situation, from what we've seen. I think next year will be Fudomine's year, since their whole team, minus Tachibana, will still be around.

You know, in Prince of Tennis: Year Two. :) Araiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

PoT: Year Two
That would be fun. Or funny. Mostly funny, I expect. There would be a lot of getting whumped, training, and probably chibis. :)

[disutansu]

Wow... this was *really* heartfelt. You just can't help but *feel* for Kaidoh. It's rare to read one of these type of fics. *snugs you* Wonderful fic! Glad you shared it with us. ^_____^

[prillalar]

Thank you! I've been feeling so badly for Kaidoh that I wanted to give him a little time to show us how he felt. *sniff*

[mildlyinsane]

T_T poor kaidoh....

excellent excellent fic. *gives you cookies*

[prillalar]

Aw, thanks. :) *sniffles and munches cookies*

[fussybishounen]

I can't compliment your writing enough, especially your grasp on Kaidoh. This was so touching. Kaidoh tells himself things that I find I have to tell myself everyday, when the gap between potential and ability seems insurmountable. The way you write makes me want to tuck him just a little further into my heart.

Fwee, I'm getting sentimental ^_^ Thanks so much for this.

[prillalar]

Thank you! I've been working long and hard to try to understand Kaidoh. He's very complex. And I felt so badly since I saw this ep, I just had to write this to make myself feel better. Which *mostly* worked. *sniff*
