Like Pandora's Box. Lovely cliffhanger. Looking forward to more.

All your work is great. (I'm also fond of 8 and Fitz.) I really like this one and am sorry to hear we'll have to wait for you to continue it, but wishing you luck on NaNoWriMo.

Do you have a beta for your DW fanfic? I could do it sometimes if you like. Your writing is so beautiful, it would be a pleasure.

If it makes a difference, 私も日本文化の研究をやっております。

あ、そうですか。びっくりします!何年間日本語を勉強しましたか。
僕いまごろ四年中の言葉を繰り返し、テストのために… 残念ながら、文法や言葉を大体忘れてしまいました。

Thanks for your offer. I do have a beta-reader for some challenge fics, but apart from that I'd rather not have one. Many kind people have offered, but in the end I'm too impatient and too self-conscious to accept. Often, when I finish a story, I need to post it as soon as possible, or I might not do so at all.
Thank you for the comment, anyway!

実はもう二十年間ぐらい日本語を勉強しましまた。いま大学で教えて、日本古典文学が専門なのです。テストはがんばってくださいね。きっとvail_kagamiさんは外国語の天才で、全然問題ないと思っています。(^.^)

I understand perfectly about the impatience to post. And rightly so, your stories are so gorgeous the way they are it would be a shame to keep fussing over them.

優秀ですよね!優秀!

Wow... 20 years? I must say, that's a relief! I was already getting nervous again because your Japanese is so much better than mine.
さあ… 英語は日本語よりとても易しいです。僕は日本語が下手です。
日本の友達がありません、ホストファミリ-の関係はちょっと… だから、大学の授業以外に練習が全然ありません。
You know, I've had this nightmare that one of my professors might stumble over my journal by accident. Suddenly it seems so much more realistic... :P

You're too kind. My stories would be better with a beta to kill the little gramatical errors and the typos I tend to overlook - since nightrider101 has proof-read some of my stories my writing in general has improved. She finds less to complain about every time.
But everyone pointing out my mistakes in the comments is a great help! (Even though it's embarrassing sometimes.)

I feel asleep reading this trilogy last night and finished it this morn. I think that I'm slowly working my way through your fics and they're amazing. Sometimes dark, always angsty :D and I love your voices for the characters.

This is such an interesting premise. I'm looking forward to seeing how things will end for all involved- if only Jack will be able to survive whatever it is The Master has given him.

Looking forward to reading more xXx

Oh, I like you icon!

Anyway, thanks a lot! There won't be more before December because I'm still busy writing NaNo, but I'm glad you like it!

Okay, I just caught up with this series during the weekend and I'm addicted! Sorry for not commenting on chapters but I was internetless. Yay for saving HTML files on laptop!

I can't wait for the next part!
So many good things to come in December: new DW episode, Christmas, you continuing this fic... It makes November look bad.
