Oh man, why do you do stuff like this to me? Every time I read one of your fics, the first thing I think is that you really make me like every single member of Team 7. Whereas I usually feel annoyed by each one of them by turns....

Sakura is two-and-twenty, and still doesn’t know who Sasuke is. But she can still try.

Of course I love this, because really, Sasuke would have to be terribly difficult person to get to know, even for someone who's spent a lot of time around him. I keep thinking about how he can be so up-front and yet so closed-off at the same time.

Also, baaaaaaw you made me remember how much I want Sasuke to come home and be... non-insane again. D:

you really make me like every single member of Team 7 - hester, my life is comlpleeeeeete! 8D

ha, yes! Sasuke would be a very hard person to get to know, even if you've 'known' him for over a decade. But I like that... Sakura keeps trying, even if her conviction, unlike Naruto's, falters from time to time.

I keep thinking about how he can be so up-front and yet so closed-off at the same time. - GAH. That boy gives off so many mixed signals, it's not even funny. >8(

;_; Sasukeeee~ Come home already, douchebag. Naruto and Sakura re waiting for you with whips and chains and sexy love. We all are! ♥

Thank you so much for reading, hester! You have no idea how happy that makes meeee~ /floats with joy

I'm glad I can complete your life!

;_; Sasukeeee~ Come home already, douchebag. Naruto and Sakura re waiting for you with whips and chains and sexy love. We all are! ♥

There was absolutely no need to cross out the whips and chains and sexy love. I do hope Sasuke's in the mood for sexy love when he finally comes back, because. THAT IS WHAT MUST HAPPEN. SEXY LOVE IS THE ONLY WAY THE NINJAVERSE CAN EVER BE MADE RIGHT AGAIN AFTER ALL THE WEIRD STUFF THAT'S HAPPENED.

Indira! ♥ Will you allow me to flail on this page for a whole day and never shoo me away? :D This is pretty amazing. I love how you wrote Sakura.

Christiiiine! I'm so happy you read this. You flailing over this makes me want to flail at you. *FLAILS FOREVER* I'm glad you like Sakura in this - I actually think her characterization came off very... well, it could've been better, but I fail at life, SO. /shrugs Also, what're you doing for SSM? I can't believe it's almost over. ;__;

If you say so, Chris~ I trust your judgment<33 (I'm downloading True Blood now, btw~ Now, to find Game of Thrones torrents...)

Also, I just realized that SSM is over already and I defaulted for the 5th-ish week. :( Worse, I haven't read your birthday fic yet. @_@ Link me? I'm a bit... lost, wading through SO MUCH AMAZING on the comm. ^__^;;

;______; HOW. WHAT. HOW. HOW ARE YOU LIKE THIS, HOW ARE THESE WORDS SO UNBELIEVABLY POIGNANT, TOUCHING. Beautiful, especially the idea that both Sakura and Naruto have woven their lives around Sasuke, the one constant, and that he's back, finally, and that him being back isn't immediately the answer to everything. God, I miss this fandom. I miss knowing the character voices, hearing them so clearly, just like you obviously do.

Oh crap, clearly I'm in a rambling mood, I'll shut up now. <3

very nice. you have a way with words that enables you to paint a good picture of future the of team 7.

Hiii~ Thank you so much! My version of Team 7's future doesn't include any heartfelt bromance or anguished love confessions, or general stupidity on Sasuke's part, but I'm glad you like it anyway. 8D

Hee~ Sasusaku is always subtle. The pairing invented subtle, so I don't have much choice about writing them any other way. that, and I can't really see them confessing in so many words, so... XD

This was beautiful! Exactly what I needed. :')

And Sasuke's wrist is like a Victorian lady's ankle. :D
