Saving a spot for me with a Qmi icon? ♥ ♥ ;--------------;

I loved this fic! dbhaufbhds. I am trying to find a way to express my love for this fic without spamming you. nfajknfdsj.

Poor Hikari. ;-; She just wanted Jun's attention, and her struggle to get that was so heartbreaking, but sweet. I could so picture this happening. The poor girl wanted to follow him everywhere, but he would always just bolt away.

Hikari has small dreams for a small-town girl, and most of them revolve around her best friend.

♥ I love the repetition of "small-town girl" in these few paragraphs.

And when she keeps trying to reach him and he won't pick up... nnnghh And then he's in the crowd...;----;

This was really touching. ♥ Thank you for writing it! And I adore the ending. It's so cuteeee.

I'M MEMMING IT FOREVER. ♥

DX It needs to be reedited so... I hope it wasn't that bad. And Qmi are BAMF-y superstars, so it is relevant to this story. Or I think it is in my weird unlogical connection.

Most people would want to be Hikari, not feel bad for her. XD She got both in the end, didn't she~~

This is fantastic! I didn't know what to expect when you told me about the idol!AU, and it turned out gorgeous. Your description of Hikari's lifestyle is amazing and spot-on, and you were particularly great handling her emotions. The little phrases like 'Hikari tries not to be hurt that Jun doesn't even call to say goodbye.' really pack a punch, and I like the premise behind Hikari's decision to become an Idol. I honestly wasn't expecting Jun to turn up for the concert, and when he did it was so sweet and I just knew that it would be a nice resolution from then on (: Of course, I felt that the two of them sorted out their misunderstandings... really fast. Especially despite the fact that Jun had been really avoiding her for so long, and Hikari was significantly hurt because of it. The reason that he was chasing after her meant that he liked her too yeah? I felt that Jun could have demonstrated that point better with his daily exchanges with Hikari, but he never did, and that was sad. Still, I like the whole thing haha :D Just two ( ... )

I can give you two explanations! The first is that when I was writing it, I kind of wanted it to have a movie-esque feel where the girl goes to absurd ends to win over the boy she likes, but it turns out that he's like her all along! So I kind of wanted to give the ending a movie-esque feeling as well. I think they still have a lot of things to sort out (and there are other parts to idol!AU, hopefully Q_Q) but I didn't want to ruin that perfect moment they had ( ... )

This is adorable! I actually found it while poking around for Gen-fic, but the idol aspect still drew me in, since exploration of different aspects of the Poke-verse beyond the League was just what I'd been looking for. And then the romance pulled me in, too ^_^ It's very sweet, and a lovely exploration of the characters.

(And ah, now I'm in the mood for finally starting Pearl or Platinum, so I'm kicking my emulators which won't work properly and let me play the Japanese roms I have ><)

I don't really have much of anything constructive to say, besides 'aww' and 'I'm looking forward to more of this AU!'

You know, I always did find a bit odd that there were television stations and radio shows and idols but like - if you're always traveling around, no one would watch them right? Haha. The Pokemon games make the player characters so ego-centric!

If you're looking for gen fic, ibuberu write a ton ton of it.

Hopefully there will be more to this AU! I don't think all of them are going to be this cute, though, haha.
