God, that's so good. Holy crap. I really liked this--Rinoa's stream of conscious thoughts about the whole series of events really works in this case. I don't think a "solid" story would have worked. :D

[first_seventhe]

Oh, thanks so much. Part of my problem is that I don't know what I would change, so - EEEEE.

[irish_ais]

I really don't think there's anything you COULD change to make this flow better. The disjointed glimpses are, I think, your best bet.

Alright, this is TEN SHADES OF AWESOME.

God, Rinoa and power in ANY form is quite a lot to think about and has been eating my brain. Funny that you should write this today, I figured out where to go next with my silly story.

And I know I promised to read other stuff of yours, but hey, I'm fixated. >.>

Works: Rinoa dreaming of being a Sorceress. To some extent wanting to be. It makes a hell of a lot more sense than a lot of theories.

Doesn't Work: Uh... really, I've got no complaints on any of the ideas. My Rin's a bit more intuitive than yours but that's good! I LIKE DIFFERENT IDEAS.

World needs more of this kind of thing, plzkthnx.

I was seriously going to email this to you because you are, like, my resident Rinoa for some reason. XD I'm totally glad you approve.

I have a sixth sense when it comes to THINGS I MUST READ WHILE AT WORK. That, and it's Monday. But still FIC SENSES TINGLED.

And I am sooo bored today. I'm stuck in waiting on the project group limbo. We've got this crazy small timeline, but I'm the only one on this project solely... makes me write. XD Even if it's wonky politics.

Hey email away if you're ever wanting to make sure I get something. I've got this little alert thingy on my firefox browser (which is so tricked out, you have no idea how tricked out my firefox is) when mail comes in. I try to not have it on in the morning, but inevitably I turn it on after lunch, as my mind wanders after lunch.

I should be channeling my creativity for work but... I've got nothing to go off of! I do not idle well!

HAHAHA. I have Gmail Notifier here on my desktop at work. There have been plenty of times that it'll ping me with the little message window while I'm discussing work-related things. So you are seriously inviting EVIL -- I sometimes trade hundreds (yes) of emails with lassarina on a really slow week.

I IS A GOOD EMPLOYEE.

I think the best part of this is adding so much to Rinoa's severely under-developed character, and since I liked her originally, I REALLY like this ficlet-type deal. I think it all led up really nicely to the part where she agreed to it. And I like the way the magic junctioning system was explained- because how on EARTH do you actually explain that in fanfic?? :D :D All in all, amazing, as always.

[first_seventhe]

<3 Thanks! I never liked Rinoa until I started writing about her, and now I really, really like her. ;)

[katmillia]

Well I HOPE YOU CONTINUE cause this thing is seriously AWESOME AND MADE OF WIN.

[first_seventhe]

THANKS SO MUCH. I'm much more pleased with it now than I was when I started; I'm just worried it feels too disjointed.

[first_seventhe]

Thanks so much! <3 It means a lot, since - as you can see from the comments - I was a little nervous about this one.

[siva630]

This was excellent.

[first_seventhe]

<3 Thanks!
