I'm glad you liked it!

Wow... This was strong. And it hurt - in the best way a story can hurt.

Thanks. I ... honestly, I needed a break from fluff and I re-read that fic mentioned and I just blubbered all over the floor and couldn't stop writing until I finished. I'm so glad it worked out.

I have to admit that I'm very happy right now that I'm not into Naruto, because otherwise I'd have to go and read the mentioned ff and it would end with me being depressed :(

And it is a great thing to show this side of the war and to remind people that there is more than just the great heros and fluff stories...

XD It's okay. The fic's an 'unlikely to be continued' WIP, anyway.

Fluff's amazing, but... sometimes I need a good purge, yeah?

Dammit that made me instantly depressed.

:c

Everybody loses and that's no fun.

Well, it's war. I don't think it's possible to win...

It sucks because this is sort of what underlies the brilliant psychotic glory of all TF series, if you think about it. No one ever focusses on what's beneath the madcap adventures and pretty colours ^^;

...But really, I just had do something that wasn't porn for once XD;

T-That's so sad. Amazing, but so saad. ;A;

*hugs* Don't cry! It's not supposed to be that depressing O_O

well, okay, it sort of is, but that still doesn't mean I want you to be cryyying!

Holy mother of --

...Damn, dyta. Damn. Just. Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn.

dytabytes March 4 2008, 18:50:59 UTC

... is this a good damn, or a bad damn, Sia?

Because I need to know if I can bask in the sun or if I have to pull on my galoshes so my socks don't get all tear-salty-wet. >>
