Two in one day, now! *_____* It's like it keeps being my birthday over and over, or something! Again, I probably have little in the way of constructive thought to offer since my head's all "WAHHHHOMGSQUEEEEE!!!"

I swear you are chipping away hard at changing my OTP...(and even that featured in here, too, eee!) Especially when you do such delicious pieces like this where there's fuzzy cute aww, and darker introspection, and politics, and porn. It just pushes ALL the buttons. *_*

I sooooo love being spammed with snippets of these things over g!talk, it's almost becoming a daily routine (and certainly it's one I look forward to!) It keeps my days from being as boring as they could be, and inspires me to write more, myself, so yay!

SO MUCH LOVE FOR MY DOUBLE THAT IT CANNOT BE EXPRESSED IN MERE WORDS. ♥ ♥ ♥

*smirks* That sounds like a challenge~

>.>

You're very welcome to take it up >D (I mean...Shinou/Daikenja has been my favourite for such a very loooong time...it might take some convincing~)

*whistles innocently*

[reversedhymnal]

Oh, Muraken, you fool, ♥

*wriggles and rolls in your fic with gleeee* I loved that and it was awesome! And now I want to write a reaction fic about

"But it's not manipulation," Yuuri said with utmost earnesty. Murata stared at him incredulously. How could it be anything but? Yuuri wrinkled his nose, and scratched the back of his neck. "Well, I mean. It's you, Murata. You're sneaky, and I know that. But I also know that I can trust you about the important things. So I don't really see it as manipulation. You're helping me, right? And everyone else. That's important." Yuuri paused, and then frowned at Murata, jabbed his sage in the chest with an indignant finger. "That said, don't go overboard. And you can tell me straight a lot of this stuff. Seriously! You don't have to carry the weight of everything, jeez!"

And stuffs. Haha, ♥ I need to write your second dose of skirtporn, only...my room mate is sitting behind me and I have a lot of art after class sooo it might be a little while. Damn!

[apapazukamori]

Awwwwww, your Yuuri is so cute!! ♥ I want to love him and squeeze him and keep him and name him... um... "Yuuri".

SKIRTPORN! 8D 8D

[reversedhymnal]

I don't know how it happened, D: I'm not used to cute characters. But. Sora is a little like Yuuri too. It. Might be why I like them so much, the great big dorks. They are...special to me? *makes a fai face of DO NOT WANT shuddershudder*

INDEED, ♥ I LIKE SKIRTS, PARTICULARLY WHEN THEY CONTAIN BOYS, ♥ Did you catch moshesque's Yuuri in a skirt fic? IT'S AWESOME AND OW GO GO GO.

[apapazukamori]

It's the total sweet, dork-ness. Yuuri used to drive me absolutely nuts in the early episodes. I really couldn't stand him and all the stupid stuff he was doing. Until they really started delving into his complete lack of self-esteem. Then it was like a lightbulb had gone off, and he was suddenly human. And he tries so hard to be a good person and king. D': (And then he totally falls for bald-faced lies like "I can speak the language here because I know German! :D" Or "Even though I sound like Yozak and look like Yozak and kind of act like Yozak, I'm totally not. Except no one else in existance has shoulders as big as mine. :D")

OH OW SO PRETTY AND HOT BUT SAD. D:

[pollinia]

Oh my goodness, YAY. I love this--the darkness, the closeness, Murata being conflicted and unsure, working his way through to the wise conclusions of a Sage. Simply beautiful. You know these characters. You know them well enough to project into the future where this relationship would happen, where they would be more mature than they are at present canon. And you do it smoothly. Often, pieces where Yuuri is older strike me as awkward because he's such a kid throughout most of the series. But this one is seamless. I don't question his maturity. It just exists as you've created it.

Beautiful work. :)

*adds to memories*

[apapazukamori]

#O.O# Thank you very much! I really, really appreciate the review. I'm glad Yuuri sounded right, too; I haven't written him much, I mostly stick with Murata, so it's a relief to hear he's believable. :D

[starrose17]

That's amazing, you could have pulled that right out of the KKM story itself! (if only xD).

What a wonderful piece!

[apapazukamori]

Hehe, if only indeed! Thank you very much! :D

[raserei_hojo]

Intense. Not only that, but absolutely beautiful.

[apapazukamori]

Hee. #^o^# Thank you.
