I know I bitch and moan about AK (and am annoyingly passive aggressive about it - how do you put up with me again?), but truthfully, I absolutely adored your fic and wish I had your natural talent for writing. Just, the idea behind the wishing stones and having past!Akame interact with present!Akame was brilliant. Plus Josh got what was coming to him, which I will always fully support. HA. I must say chibi!Akame was perhaps my favorite part of the fic. I didn't read the other entries in the exchange, but I have no doubt that your piece was among the best there, and I know AK fandom has a quite a bit of talent (~forever jealous~).

because I didn't even realise my fic had any major angst in the first place.You're cute ( ... )

I am making a face at the last bit of your first sentence. an ugly wth face. :| #tsking And I don't mind your complaining at all, bb ♥ At the moment, the only akame I can handle is the chibi version so it's all good I moan about them in my mind when it gets too much lol. hdskjk I remember your glee at the Josh abuse XD I can't believe that was the seed that started this entire fic. Josh was my muse. #dies fhjdsk sputters YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TURN THE FLATTERY AROUND ON ME. THIS IS A KRYS APPRECIATION POST. FOLLOW THE RULES, EEYORE. LOVE YOURSELF :| ♥♥♥ #ilu

It was kinda hilarious how, when I reread the fic afterwards, I was wincing and going aaaaah! I can't believe I went there. it huuuuurts I don't know the power of my own angst and to think this was the happier plot I conjured for k_x XD

Really now~? are you suuuuure? :B #50kAkamecomingyourway :B dhsjk I was probably stressing you out to the extreme too, what with my random tense changes and gazillion typos. ilu ♥ AH! I remember this! I originally had green thread and you were ( ... )

sjdlkfl I honestly don't think I can tell you any more than I already have how much I ADORE this fic, but yes, just. Yeah. In my eyes you have every single damn right to be proud of it (and I'm really sorry this is like the first post I'm commenting on in ages... sjkldjas GOD HOW AWFUL DOES THAT LOOK I'm sorry; it was the first thing I saw on my fpage when I clicked a few seconds ago ;_;) - basically, just everything I already told you in my massively obnoxious tl;dr comment. I'm almost selfishly sorry that it gave you closure for Akame (in a sort of admiring way, because... god knows how much strife Akame has given me over the years, and the ridiculousness somehow just never leaves) only because I'm pretty much stuck on them for good, but I still will just love that I can come back to this any time I want and feel everything.

Kudos to both you and your beta. This was fantastic, and probably will remain one of my favorite pieces in fandom, and I've read... quite a lot. And that's all I have left to say. ♥

I agree; you really can't unless you want me to combust or smth hfdskjk too much spoiling from you, missy ♥♥ It's the kind of pride where I was horrified to write this in the beginning because I didn't want to ruin my ideal akame fic plot (I was waiting to dump this as a prompt on a skilled writer hdjk)but afterwards, I looked at it and thought: it's still not exactly what I was envisioning, but it's close enough. :') (hfdskjfhsdjk SO NOT YOUR FAULT, JENFACE D: D: it's my fault for disabling comments on personal posts ^^;;; you had no other choice other than hunting me down at k_k again xD ♥) Your massively obnoxious tl'dr comment is my favourite, so. ♥ For me, I was drawn into Akame through fics written by a kpop fan (the irony lol) and at that point, I had no clue who Kame and Jin were. I knew them as characters before I knew them as people. And when I got to know them as people, it was magical in the beginning, but then things happened and the bubble popped. This fic was there to mop up the mess for me. I love the idea of it being ( ... )

I'm so happy you posted this entry 'cause I can tell you I still love it so much and it's one of the best Akame fic I've ever read. Even though I learned about Josh and Jin's friends from your story and that was kind of Akame end for me, too. Except their happy times and chibi versions! :) Actually, there is more. A week ago I caught myself re-telling this story to my friend who doesn't know much about Akame or Jin or Kame. I didn't know where to start regarding their complicated history so I went with your fic adding a bit of reality and it worked really great. After that, there was even more. I had to re-read it on 8th November when Jin's US debut single was released thinking about if he remembered the day he had entered Johnny's 13 years ago and if it briought back any memories of his dreams and expectations he had back then comparing to his latest achievements. So, maybe your story is more real than it seems to be :)

How can a comment be so sweet and touching. srsly. hdkjsk ;~; ♥ ♥ ♥ Ack, now I feel slightly guilty about exposing you to Josh in a bad light (ngl though, nothing I've read or seen from him is favourable imo) and inadvertently popping your Akame bubble. :S Sorry :( I'm glad you can still enjoy them though! The happy chibi times are all I can digest atm, too. ...Wow, I can't tell you how amazing that is to hear. ;o; I love how this fic, which helped me with my akame closure, is managing to help other fans in different ways. I admit that my impression of Real Jin is more cynical compared to how I write Fic Jin (I write him the way I want to see him, not how I actually see him) but I really did try to make it as real as I could, all the pent up emotions at least, by putting myself in Jin's bright neon shoes. And I'm really happy to see that came through. Thank you so much! ♥
