Haha..uh I never could write "drabbles." They always end up over 1000 words, and well you gave me long ficcy, so I just had to show the same curiosity, even at the cost of your mental health! XD Well, at least I got the "Rinoa annoying Squall" in there.

Annnywaays, thanks. Um, can I ask you something? You've been a writer for quite awhile. I'm I really bad? This one was a quicky, but its generally how I write. Just wondering since FF.net is no place to get honest answers most of the time. There's only 1 fanfiction that I've ever written that I know a decent amount of people love.

Well, to be honest with you, I think your writing kind of shows your inexperience and that you don't really write that much, but it's not bad in any way. The sentences are easy to read and understand, which is a good thing. Rinoa was a bit overkill in characterization, but I think you did that for the humor effect, and I admit it nearly killed me. ^^;

Overall, I'd say just keep practicing! I mean, no one was ever born a good writer, they all learned how to write along the way. In general, I also think that things like unpolished writing have never stopped anyone from having a dedicated readership - after all, most people read stories for the, well, story, and not to fap to the pretty metaphors. (...which I should learn myself, lol).

In any case, I enjoyed this. <3

Tell me if you want me to give you details on where it seems unpolished.

Thanks for the honestly and I completely agree. I'm mainly an essay writer which is probably why my fanfiction writing doesn't have much "style" or "finesse." I still use MLA outline for my fanfiction writing....lol. Yeah, Rinoa was purposely made stupid and annoying. At the beginning I thought about making it serious because her situation is pretty sad and I could have done her some justice, but NAHHHHH. LOL

YES, please, details! I want to improve. Rip it apart. I'm all for it. In fact my main fanfiction, which is written way better and has quite a bit of readers ( probably because I a have the characterization down) is almost coming to an end and I want the final two chapters to be the best they can be. Thank you!
