This is my first time reading this-I'm actually quite excited about this story's development;)
I LOVE that it goes slowly through their development. And I think you described Yamapi's hatred perfectly; it wasn't about the people, it was the concept of him leading people he didn't know. PERFECT!
And I love the Yamapi/Jin conversation. I FREAKING LOVE the mail addresses that you gave them, lol-are those real by any chance? lol:)
I really enjoy the simple interaction between Yamapi and Koyama:) And the other members don't feel ignored:) I think the members are already getting used to each other in 2006, and I like how you have Koyama spouting on about "Member Ai."
I think this really clarifies a lot of the chronology for me, because so many things happened at once. And I think you're right that Yamapi started to get his act together just as it was falling apart:)
I really get a sense that all you wrote is like what really happened behind the scenes of NEWS. I love that it's real:D

So, you commented on this fic like over a month ago but because you caught me in the middle of finals and then going to Japan, I haven't been able to respond until now. But I wanted to respond now because when I first saw these comments, they thrilled me so much and I wanted you to know how much I loved them. ♥

I FREAKING LOVE the mail addresses that you gave them, lol-are those real by any chance? lol:)

Unless, I'm an amazing mindreader, no. *grin* The ending extensions are real though because depending on the cell phone carrier in Japan, the email address changes.

I think this really clarifies a lot of the chronology for me, because so many things happened at once.

As they always do. :) I mean, when you are "in" the moment, it's easier to manage through, but looking back, it's hard to sort out. I just happened to be getting into fandom very strongly at this particular period in NEWS's history so it helped that I was familiar with it intimately to get all the nuances across. :)
