Ha, yup. What I thought. :D I haven't been commenting, cause I suck like that, but I really like this story. I like your style of writing. Also, I love cream cheese and cucumber sandwiches. :)

*celebrates* i'm really glad at least some people got it, 'cause i don't think most people are. haha.

not commenting is okay; i understand the lure of the lurk. i do it all the time! =D

thanks so much

Really? I thought it seemed fairly obvious. I guess my brain is just weird like that. o.O

I swear I usually comment on stuff I read, I'm just easily distracted and forget or I'm unable to come up with something useful to say, and I hate leaving flaily comments with no concrit. *sigh* Life is so hard. :P

therecordskipsx July 17 2007, 23:21:14 UTC

i had a lovely online friend of mine completely confused...she was like, "is brendon dreaming? is she magical? does she have multiple personalities?" and i was finally like, NO, SHE'S FTM, GOD! =| hahaha. i'm glad your brain is weird, then!

i don't usually comment, mostly for that reason. unless i have some useful crit or something to point out, i mostly just enjoy the fic in silence. i've come to not expect crit, just the same as i've come to laugh at the flaily comments. flaily or not, they're still nice! =]

amoureuse_folle July 17 2007, 23:32:03 UTC

Or logical? *strokes goatee* See what you've done to me bandslash? My logical conclusion to situations like this is that someone's transsexual, not magic. I blame the MCR fandom. (And possibly my yearly participation in the Rocky Horror Show. *shrug*)

It's true, all comments are nice, but it's so awesome when you actually do get something that helps you improve your writing and shows that someone has taken enough time to think about things like that. I think, at least. *shrug*

therecordskipsx July 17 2007, 23:34:56 UTC

hmm, perhaps. =] haha

yeah, ever since i started posting here, i've been waiting for the person who's going to go, "this was good, but this part kind of sucked" or "you should try doing this here instead"...but so far, no one's done it. i think this is because people are usually scared that giving crit will come off as mean, because it's absurd to think that anything i do is without fault, and i'm sure someone's read and gone, "oh, MY BRAINNN!" and then not said anything. haha.

Maybe longer chapters, perhaps? There you go, that's the best criticism I can come up with.

amoureuse_folle July 17 2007, 23:41:08 UTC

Well, it's always hard to get stuff across on the internet. I do worry I'll sound like a total bitch sometimes. I don't, however, have anything I feel the need to point out in this fic that I would change. Of course there are things I would have written slightly differently if it were me, but nothing that detracts from reading.

therecordskipsx July 17 2007, 23:42:27 UTC

absolutely, because there's no tone of voice or body language over the internet; your words are taken and interpreted at face value without a smile or a nice tone. and of course, there are things that would be written differently if you wrote it - that's what makes different authors fun! =]

amoureuse_folle July 17 2007, 23:47:04 UTC

That's why I always use so many smileys and actions in asterisks (I have no idea how to spell that, actually. Hmm...) on the internetz. :) It may look stupid, but it makes me feel that I have a better chance of getting something across the way I intended it.

therecordskipsx July 17 2007, 23:48:56 UTC

yep! i do that too. lots of smiley faces and stuff. and i laugh a lot more in type than i do IRL, which...sounds worse than it is. i mean, i'm not really "hahahaha"-ing most times while i'm sitting at my computer; that would make me look insane. it's just so i don't sound all deadly serious and evil! haha (that time, i actually smiled!)

amoureuse_folle July 17 2007, 23:55:29 UTC

Er... I am. *blush* lol And I probably look insane, sitting at the computer and grinning and laughing, but I'm cool with that. So incredibly cool. :D

therecordskipsx July 17 2007, 23:56:58 UTC

well, i mean, sometimes i am. i just mean that every single time that i say 'lol' or 'haha' or something, i'm probably not laughing. i DO laugh at fic...a LOT...and my brother or my parents just kind of look at me like, '...oookayyy then' =D

amoureuse_folle July 18 2007, 00:14:51 UTC

heh I still probably am. :P Or at least smiling. Mostly I think it's the smiling while trying not to laugh that makes my family go like, ".... are you okay? o.O" I may have been told I look evil. *cough*

therecordskipsx July 18 2007, 00:22:03 UTC

a lot of times when i'm reading fic, i just randomly burst out laughing. my mom doesn't even turn around or ask me what i'm laughing at anymore. i think she's used to me! =]

i get told that when i'm just walking around on a normal day, that i always look mad. which is funny, 'cause i'm usually not. =\
