Goku's a darling. I hadn't really tried writing him before, so I'm glad it came through all right for you.
Ikkou dynamics are the fascinating part of the whole series for me... & the idea of what a well-placed punch in the face might solve seemed to fit somehow ;D

Thanks very much!

Well, of course, if there's one thing we know, it's that they won't possibly work it out by ... um... talking to each other and working it out. That would be too ... easy, and boring. Enter the punching. :D
(I love these guys so, so much XXD)

♥ Thank you so much.
I really enjoyed writing this. Mostly I think because I want so badly to see something like it happen *cries for ikkou normalcy* I'm glad you enjoyed reading it too :)

Oh, I liked this! (And I can see it happening exactly this way, too!)

He was just using that voice that means someone ought to start paying attention quick, before their innards get … out. Loved this line!

He knew exactly what he was doing, he had Sanzo against a wall, and he just wouldn’t let up, til like sparks from a flint Sanzo caught it too. This whole paragraph was cool. It's nice to see that it was Gojyo who snapped them out of their funk.

I feel like Gojyo needs a Big Damn Hero moment. He's had a lot of frustration and put up with a lot of reckless shenanigans from the others; I think he's due. Gojyo WIN!
And yeah ... with Hakkai in a mood, I think everyone would want to be careful for their innards' sake. I would.

Thanks so much! I can't wait to read Minekura's version. Bet it won't be near as angsty. :D
