*cracks up* POOR TSUNA!!! LOL! I love time-travel confusing as it is.
I do believe he's fed up with dying. ;D
And poor Kyouya, he's probably getting annoyed at how weak Tsuna appears!

*thumbs up* Let's hope his deaths won't be in vain! >p

*grins* My Tsuna muse was not impressed with my decision to keep killing him off for this fic. With any luck, this time things'll work out.

Thanks for commenting!

Wow, I loved this fic so much. I haven't read a TYL fic with this kind of concept yet so I love how it's one of the more unique fics in this fandom. Really well-written, this:

"You don't understand," Kyouya tells him. "As you are now, you die. Nothing changes that. Bringing you out of the past is a chance for the rest of us to live."

Sawada blinks, and closes his eyes as that sinks in. "Oh," he says, quietly, getting it. "I see."

killed me. Obviously we don't know how the arc will end but having TYL!Tsuna come back to life is probably what'll happen but your idea, heart-breaking as it may be, makes more sense and is more "realistic".

Anyway, I'm really glad you wrote this, definitely made my night! Hope to read more from you! :)

Thank you very much!

I'm pretty sure that having Tsuna come out of the past will change him enough that whenever he and his Guardians return, they'll be able to avert Byakuran altogether, actually, and I assume that's what Hibari and Irie hope for too. *grins* But it's fun to explore some of the darker possibilities.

*grinning hard* Thank you, sweet.

"He'd seen this before, many times now. It never entirely stopped being surprising how young Sawada looked whenever he slid the coffin's lid aside and sat up... Gokudera's expression never changed, either"

oh my god gokudera ;__________;

it's so perfect that the final (hopefully!) solution is, bring everyone else along, not just Tsuna. also you explain the current arc so well in this story, I can stop the multiple suspensions of disbelief I have been having now. THANK YOU

[lysapadin]

The look on Gokudera's face when he sees TYB!Tsuna is just so wrecked, isn't it? Gets me every time I go back and reread the manga.

I'm glad this works to fill in some of problem places in the current arc! *wry* Sometimes I really wonder what the hell is going on there, because it doesn't make any sense using earth logic.

Thanks for commenting!

Wow, that's just -- amazing. I love the concept of this fic; I'd never really stopped to wonder whether they might not have tried to pull the whole back-from-the-past stunt more than once. And the way you wrote it was incredible. It felt real, told from Hibari's POV. Great work as usual, Lys ♥

[lysapadin]

Thank you very much! *grinning* It's just the way TYL!Hibari kept making comments about schedules and time-keeping and all--it seems like he knows way more than he's actually saying.
