lol @ the end.

I like the bit where she's got the bow in her hands. The frustration at not know what to with said bow.

[starseed4]

The idea of that scene was basically what spawned this entire thing. I like the idea of Riza, who's always so confident and capable, being unsure about something. I'm glad you liked it!

[jamminbison]

I fucking love Riza. This was badass, man.

[starseed4]

She's basically the greatest woman to ever have held a gun. No joke.

[jamminbison]

True story. If she was a real woman and I was of the gay, I'd tap that. And then she'd shoot me. It'd be true happiness. /shot

[starseed4]

Pssh, forget being gay: I'd tap that as a heterosexual female.

"And she will shoot it"
Best line EVER!

[starseed4]

Haha glad you liked it!

[pheonee]

So at first I was like "yes, a lovely fic, some interesting implications on gender and its perceptions in Riza's society"

but then

And she will shoot it.

THIS FIC IS IS NOW SOLIDLY FUCKING AWESOME. YES MA'AM. @_@

[starseed4]

Hahaha thank you! I thought that line was particularly... poignant. XD Oh Riza. <3

[genarti]

Hee! I love the part where she has no idea what to do with a bow -- Riza knows her specialties.

[starseed4]

Thanks! She's definitely a woman who knows what she's capable of and what she isn't. She's awesome like that. <3
