OH. OH. OHHHH. SIX PARTS OF SAKUMIYA!!! IN SPACE/TRAVEL/SERVICE AU!!!!!!!!!!. EH ACCIDENTAL MARRIAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!AHHHHH. THIS IS ALREADY SUPER WONDERFUL <3. Allow me to take my time to read, and bask in this awesome, and get back to you with more detailed comments. WOOHOO! XDDDDD
Anon, first, apology for the wait but here I am. I have read this more than three times and STILL SO SO SOOOO GOOD! OMG what did I do to deserve this glorious 6-part Sakumiya awesome? AND Space Translator AU! OH YESSS. That alone had sent me squealing the first time. I only remember dropping lousy prompts and here you are with this beauty.
What goes after this is completely word salad, because who in their right mind can think straight when you’re reading this greatness? I might be reduced into capslock, flaily adjective repetition and keyboard mash at times (at most times lol) and it’s all because of you <3
( ... )
And suddenly the marriage request. HAHAHA. This is so gooood. I swear I would try to find another adjective, some fancier ones to try to convey how good this fic is but I’m doomed to fail because everytime something comes up I could only facepalm and question why this great fic is written for me. You are the greatest really. And you’re going to keep hearing this because I’m only on the first part and there’s still a long way to go
( ... )
The ‘husband’ counter retort sent me squealing because it is one of the first hints of Sho’s acknowledging their marriage. Plus it turns Nino’s ear pink, I am as happy as a clam at all this Sakumiya high water! :D :D
( ... )
The world you created was awesome. I LOVE your Jun. I love how he's absolutely easy to love - Jun tends to be guarded and aloof in fics and I love how you included that in his past but he's just so charming, sweet yet dorky in this one -- ALL while being absolutely close to what I imagine Jun to be like.
The kiss was so lovely. It was unexpected but not unbelievable. I love how you timed it - you made us feel like Nino who sort of knew it was coming but not exactly at THAT moment.
The relationship was beautiful. I LOVE how they worked so well together but because they weren't completely honest with each other, it broke down. It seemed like sho's fault but under the surface, Nino was also keeping his own demons hidden EVEN if he told sho.
This was a piece of art. Thank you! It's not for me but I loved every moment of it. In fact, I'm rereading it to see what I've missed the first time round! (Like sho calling Nino Nino the very first time)
I’m all smiles since Ambassador Jun is getting some love! He’s the one I’m proudest of in this AU, so to see him being appreciated is me having a proud mama moment LOL.
I know you love Sakumiya, so to see you finding the entire thing to be more than acceptable brings me relief like whoa. I’ve never written Sakumiya of this scale before (I keep using Nino Ex to write for pairings I never tackled) so I was unsure about a couple of things.
Thank you very much for reading and dropping a comment! I never imagined this can warrant a reread (seriously, how), so I’m really floored with this nice comment you left me! ♥
I loved the universe you built, and how we got to find out about what happened to Nino little by little as he opened up more to Sho and vice versa. It felt really genuine and - despite the fact that half the characters are alien - really human. I loved how their relationship gradually progressed and how it took Nino some time but he was able to get back to Sho.
I really loved Jun too, how he was so kind but firm. It worked really well.
Thank you for this comment! I was worried about my insertion of aliens, so knowing that it somehow worked in the way I was hoping for is a huge relief. :)
This was really excellent! Reaching the end made me go back and reevaluate a few scenes I'd read into differently, which is really fascinating! Nino picked up on things from Sho that I didn't as a reader which is brilliant.
I loved seeing Nino in a role that utilizes his intelligence. It's not something highlighted very often, but very spot on with him. He might not read the way Sho does, but he does absorb a lot of information and is clever in his own right.
Jun was so perfect throughout this story, and the Aiba and Sho backstory with the smiles made my heart hurt. Because is there anything better than Sho's laughter? His laugh and his smile, it would kill me not to see that around and of course Aiba too. Nino and Sho balanced each other really well throughout the story, and the fake marriage was a great catalyst for them to get to know one another. So! YAY. :D
When I was thinking of what to take away from Sho (I’m a firm believer of the main pairing having baggage if it’s more than 30k), I kept wondering what would hit me the hardest because I’m a Sho girl. So I took away his smiles lol.
I'm so happy to find another sci-fi setting and it's a Sakumiya, I'm in heaven! This story is a master piece, well-written, well thought, clever and sexy. I love the way your characters are learning to know each other, I love the way they are trying to seal a peace in this space divided by war and crimes. This story is full of interesting ideas and leads, honestly I would have read a few chapters more, but the happy ending is wonderful, I didn't even believe it was possible anymore. Thank you so much for writing this great story, you made my day ♥♥
I’m glad to know this still has something new to offer. I was unsure of the whole setup (it’s a space AU and while I did something like that before, I never actually inserted aliens that are relevant to the story till now), so knowing that you enjoyed it makes me very happy. Thank you for reading and telling me what you thought of it! :)
