Thank you very much! When I wrote this, I was aiming for "nice appetizer so that people will continue reading subrosa_tennis"--I didn't expect to make most-commented, though I guess part of that was being first in line (purely by accident). I'm glad people have enjoyed it so much! ♥

Oh, this so so, so awesome. No, seriously, this is brilliant! I love the way you characterized both Miyuki and Tezuka; makes me miss POT fanfiction myself. ;) And amazing, humorous, actually believable het, ZOMG I haven't read that in _ages_.

Great job on this - going straight into my memories, that for sure!

(And I think I almost fell off my computer at Miyuki liking MatsuJun. >D)

♥ Aw, thank you! ♥ Hee, I took this one as a personal challenge. Write humor, and write het. I guess I sort of didn't fail, even if I couldn't get it quite to Tezuka/Miyuki for real? ♥

(Eee, memories! ♥ Thank you for telling me.)

XDDDD I HAD TO PUT THAT IN THERE. ♥

On the contrary, the Tezuka/Miyuki, while not the super-romantic, fluffy kind, was there. This cannot be denied. >D In fact, given their characters (Miyuki being the age she is and Tezuka being....well, Tezuka), I rather liked it this way! (I reckon it'd take quite awhile to get to mentioned romantic phase anyway.)

(I speaketh truth and only the truth!)

WELL, CONGRATULATIONS, I LOLED. >DDDDD

♥ ♥ ♥ dividers!!!

I really adore Miyuki here. Glad she chucked the dating advice out in the end. (my gosh, training Tezuka...) XD

Tezuka's lines! He's sure surprising Miyuki here. XD

*giggling* I actually meant for the heart dividers to be a distraction so that people wouldn't guess me so quickly--readerofasaph pointed to my usual horizontal rule as a dead giveaway. But to have haruyuki guess me partly because of the heart dividers--looks like that backfired! *laugh*

♥ I had fun writing this. I'm glad you enjoyed it! ♥

Oh, Ai <3~ I'm so glad I decided to start my To Read list with this! Your take on Miyuki is wonderful and so real, and your Tezuka, as usual, is so anal-retentive and stiff and lovely and Tezuka! I loved this, Ai, I really did.

And the omake, oh god. The omake is just perfect =D

♥ I'm so happy to hear this! ♥ I nearly tore all my hair out during the six-week-long writing process, and I came this close to throwing it out the window. T_T I'm so glad it worked in the end, and hee! I just couldn't bring myself to get rid of the omake, so I'm very glad everyone else enjoyed it too! ♥♥♥

Hahahaha, oh this is filled with <3

I love how canon this feels so I suppose that means you've done a great job with the characterization ;) Miyuki is adorable and Tezuka...is so Tezuak. He can't be straight forward, just has to make everything challenging ah?

Oh and if you didn't notice, I <3 this XD

*laughs and loves back* Thank you very much! I worked very hard on this, so to hear that you think it feels like canon--that's wonderful and it means I did it right. ♥ I'm very happy to hear you liked the fic, and I hope you'll continue reading in the future!
