Title: A Collection of Assembled Almosts
Pairing/Focus: Nino/Aiba

Warning: light spanking.

"I hope you enjoy these chaotic, non-linear AUs" ANON PLS. I live for chaotic, incongruous, non-linear AUs full of pop culture/literature references and idols!!!!! Not even one bit of sarcasm there, seriously, I AM SO EXCITED. Commenting to hold my place but will read shortly!!!!! EEEEEEEEE.

I'm so so so sorry I'm finally commenting after reveals - life got in the way and fic slipped my mind ;A; But, still, I commend you for this! Even as someone who looooooooooooves postmodernist literature and non-linear stuff and writing that makes me think, this one took me a bit. I really really love it when small bits from different stories connect, and you gave me just that! I have to say, though, the Nazodi bit was probably my fave....and of course, cat robot Nino. Bless you, darling. You got all my Aimiya buttons with that. ♥

I had a feeling that I got carried away with the 'universes', but it was extremely fun and I'm really glad you enjoyed this. You had a great signup entry (bless you) and even when I zeroed in on your postmodern lit request from the get go, cat robot Nino prompt was too awesome to pass up. ♥

I really liked this!! It was so interesting to see how the different worlds connected, or realities, or what have you. Having Nino jump from one thing to the next but always having Aiba in his life, I love it ♥ Also the ending is SO great. I think you did a great job of making it feel as though it were a dreamscape. PLUS, Nazodi and Brooklyn99!? Great taste, anon. Great taste :D

[gomushroom]

Thank you for reading this jumbled mess of Nino/Aiba universes ♥! The connections were the hardest thing to write so I'm so glad you enjoyed this. And, I totally blame augustfai for the Brooklyn99 because that's totally her doing. :D :D :D

This was so different and strange, anon, I really liked how each little Aimiya snippet bled into the next. But Cat Robot Nino and Aiba was definitely my favorite :)

[gomushroom]

Ahh, thank you ♥! I'll take the 'different and strange' happily. Even if it was the main intention, I already had a feeling I twisted these 'universes' too much. :D :D

you got me at the cat robot!Nino summary XD

non-linear AUs are fun and when it's this great, I love it even more. Aiba being there with Nino no matter the universe and how you strangely woven the universes through minor details (like the phone call from Nino in one universe only for another Nino from another universe throw the ringing phone because he's busy with Aiba) are delightful to spot! it became like a game to me after the first read: where you spot the similarity of completely separate worlds aside from the characters themselves. I never read something quite like this, which is awesome ♥ (it does your sources of inspiration/references/allusions justice

great fic, anon! /thumbs up

[gomushroom]

Oh you! Yeah, you totally got me! :D Thank you so much for the lovely comment ♥! This was so much fun to write (and you knew the headache that came with it loll) and to read that you caught the connection (of course, the phone call!!!) is a nice feeling. /hugssss

We survived June, congrats to us ♥!
