Before I begin readying, I must say I was worried for a moment when I read conclusion in your A/N T.T......you scared me.......now that I finished readying it: Poor Echizen, I hope he gets some helps pretty soon, and like always, great chapter ^.^!!!!!

Ooops, I see what you mean. Sorry! Just three acts, nine chapters each. They're not even really proper acts. I um, just didn't have anything else to write in the author's note? :P

[pharrezychica]

I was finally able to catch up with all the chapters!
Sorry I'm replying only here...

This is one of the most original stories out there, no doubt about it.
Everytime I think you can't surprise me again, you go and outdo yourself *.*

This last chapter hurt so much... I thought things would get better after Tezuka spent time with him, that he'd realize somethign was wrong... poor Ryoma is gonna collapse soon ;____;

Thank you for high praise, but really, when you boil it down the fic is actually rather contrived. WAIT, NO, DON'T BOIL IT DOWN! Let us preserve the illusion. ;)

Honestly, I thought it bit of a common plot bunny, but maybe not? I'm sure something similar must have been done in other fandoms, if not yet tenipuri? I am sort of afraid to wade through FF.net these days. It has become a scary place.

(Has the sudden urge to play the batman theme. Tezuka is on the case!) I am happy you're reading, even if it causing you pain? :P

[pharrezychica]

I haven't found anythign like this in PoT and the scaryt hing is that it feels somewhat plausible... Nanjiro...

I hear you about FF.net
I went there when I run out of TezuRyo fics to read but it was a mistake... a HUGE mistake! *shivers*

Lol, now you stuck the Batmna theme in my head XD
Off to read the next chapter now! :D

TEZUKAAA~

WHY?

I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION YOU WEREN'T STUPID~

Great chapter as always, Sin!

Oh wow. I'm surprised Ryouma's been able to survive this long, even with his Buchou. o3o

Then again, I'm a glutton, so I can't imagine only eating one meal a day. xD I've survived on two while traveling, but that's about it. o_O

I wonder what Rinko and Nanako are thinking. And ajkldsj;klj;kl KARUPIN. D< Who's gonna feed him now? Not that Ryouma could afford to, it's just. ;~~~; (sorry. xD i love tangents)

[sinnatious]

I have done it! It is not pleasant. Not including periods of unintentional fasting, I once lived for a couple of weeks eating nothing more than two cups of instant ramen a day - one for lunch and one for dinner. I WILL NEVER EAT INSTANT RAMEN AGAIN. But it's definitely doable. Just, um, not recommended. IT DOES THINGS TO YOU.

Karupin will be okay. Do not worry about the Karupin. ;)

[roseofthine]

oh wow. o_O -clings to her food- 8D

...KARUPINNN. ;~~;

I really thought that Tezuka would push a little bit more.

But that last sentence It had been a month, almost to the day, since Echizen Ryoma had become homeless.... it made me want to cry all over again.

God, I just can't begin to imagine what Ryoma could feel like. I remember a chinese movie (it was actually a serie) and the guy asking his lawyer "Do you know what true hunger feels like?". And yes, it's impossible for us to imagine when you are at the true bottom...

I must admit Sin, what you wrote on this chapter. It was deep! Really got me moved.

I think I'll leave it like that tonight. I'm dead tired, still has an essay to finish and my cold is not gettin better. So even through I really wanted to continue, I have to have some sort of self control!

But this chapter, and also this fic, just made me realise how lucky I am. I am truely blessed!

The one good thing about the bottom is that things can only go up. :| Rest assured that the rest of the fic is a lot fluffier and lot more tezryo-ish?

Eee, please don't cry! I am flattered that you found it so profound, though.

Good place to take a break. I am slightly in awe you both read and commented on all those chapters in one sitting! Get well soon!
