I had imagined Athena would have already fallen prey to Chaos, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to strangle her for not protecting her Saints. The bitc-- Ahem.
I see now, why Shura's the one that has survived the longest. More than anyone else, Shura feels like the exact opposite of Chaos.
I had high hopes for that Dragon Saint, but he crumbled all too fast.
Heh, nice touch there. Makes sense for Siryu being the other one that picked his interest. He's on the same wavelength as Shura, after all.
No way. You did not just make... Aughhhh, Shura killed Athena?! As if the poor boy didn't have enough issues already!
I'm so enthralled by the story that I can't even think of what to say while I read save for: dude. holyshit. *goes back to reading*
... Oh, I'm so so so glad part 12 is right next to 11. I don't think I would have withstood the time, as short as it may be, it would have taken me to load the next page.
Excuse me while I take a deep breath before I comment, because part 12 was *brilliant*. Nothing like what I had expected and yet it's one of the best endings I've ever read for a fic.
In a way all the previous deaths and suffering feel meaningless... but I still get this feeling that the future will be fulfilling and that Shura made the right decision. Also, what a change from the Shura on the beginning of the story, but it's still a decision that feels consequent with who he is.
I'm trying to explain all the thoughts that come to my mind about the ending, but I'm swept by how great it is. On one side I feel like the ending wasn't supposed to go like this, it was supposed to be happier (in my silly hope that things would go back to how they were), but I can't imagine an ending more fitting, more... appropriate, than this one.
I love how the story is original (at least I don't think I'd ever read anything like it, in this or any fandom) while at the same time it explores Shura's character.
And that last line... What a conclusion. I can't think of the right words to explain how I feel, since I want to say so much, but this surpassed any expectation that I could have had. Great characterization and character development, despite the fact that it all occurred in such a short period of time, great twists and an enemy that hit the sanctuary at its very core...
Now I take a deep breath and try to calm myself down. ... Heck, who am I kidding, the fangirling of this story will continue for quite a while.
Awwww. I don't think anyone has ever been SO nice in commenting on anything I've written. Not this fic, that's for sure, cuz I think I got a positive comment from Ari and maybe one from torque about lenght, and that was about it :) Can't remember, really, but surely nothing as ultra-flattering as this *is starry eyed*
but then, it *is* a Shurafic, and it's not like shura's got a cohort of likers ;)
In aaaany case, THANKS! I'm soooo glad you liked it, since it was a bitch to write, especially the middle. I'm not terribly good at moving things forward, and writing "action" (as in, things happening) is hard for me.
