you know i got into the fic when i read the bit about matt's toothbrush not being there and i went "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

*sob*

stop breaking my hearrrrrrt. i mean, i love you. but where's the happy. :( :( :( also, yes, i suppose you can have some love in return. i've been looking forward to this forever. i'm so happy you finally got to post it <3 <3 <3

like, i would love to quote stuff at you, but just their RELATIONSHIP! they're so REAL and like...with anyone, this could have easily been kind of gimmicky but this? oh holy hell, you do it fantastically <3 and i'm kiiinda glad it ended like this, because if it'd ended happy..well, it would have been kind of cheesy. i want a sequel where you fix this k.

in short, i love you. i love this fic. i'm so glad i got to see bits and pieces here and that you didn't give in when i whined about wanting more. but omg kris. i keep reading back the end scene and just going ;________;

<3

i didn't want to give in when you asked for more, because i wanted you to get to read the whole thiiiing. :)

i'm so glad you like it, honey. that's our ship! and hey, if you think i'm doing them justice, then i must be doing something right.

Ugh I still love this so much.

(Don't mind me, just re-reading.) ♥

oh jeez!!! i've always liked matty, but never got into kratt before. this is the first time i've ever felt a chemistry between them. this is perfect! perfectly heart breaking, of course, but a very good read.

[kissoffools]

aw, i'm so glad you gave this fic a chance! it's really fun for me to see if i can get people to ship them, or at least understand the pairing. i'm glad you liked it. :)

[mylittlehottie]

LOL, not only did i enjoy it, but i saved it and had to make a "kratt" keyword!

[kissoffools]

omg i'm so flattered! :D

EW KRATT OMG.

No, really. This was just - amazing, until the end, which was heart wrenching. The whole scenario is just so difficult but I always felt a small bit of hope within your writing, simply because the two of them had each other. It's sad that they couldn't get by on just that - they had to separate. The note at the end killed me. :'( The fact that Matt would sacrifice the music, that's so much a part of him, for Kris...I think it says it all.

In conclusion, I LOVE THIS and it is beautiful and perfect and don't tell anyone but I kind of ship Kratt now.

LMAO I'M GOING TO TELL EEEEEEEVERYONE :P

But no seriously, I'm really glad you liked it (you're a writer I look up to so I'm all giggleblush rn). I'm glad you got the ending and that so much of what I wanted to convey came across.

<3 <3 <3

Oh. Ohhhhh.

This couldn't have been done any better, I think. I love AU like nothing else, so I just had to try this out, and am I glad I did! I love their easy, natural chemistry. It doesn't sound like much when they're the only two characters in the story, haha, but when it's an established relationship, it's all in the little details (like you put in the parenthesis, hee) and that is something you do very well.

I didn't even pay attention to the rating (because let's be honest, that doesn't matter!), so I didn't expect the sex, but then it molded itself into the story in such a relevant way and worked so, so much with the whole glimpse into their lives.

I'm not going to hide that the end took me by surprise and almost made me cry, but it's a love filled sort of ache. And, in my head I'll imagine this is just another bump to get over so they can meet again and be together later on. Amazing job.

[kissoffools]

Emcyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! *squishes*

I'm so flattered that you decided to try this and that you ended up liking it. :D You're so lovely, honey, and your comment means a LOT to me.

[emcy]

Well, I had a security blanket in that you were the author, so obviously I had to and knew I wouldn't be disappointed. ;) Your heart is lovely!

[shadyperfection]

You're horrible. This was amazing. I feel so bad that Matt had to sacrifice his music, but at the same time it was so beautiful that he did it for Kris.

Guh I love you.

[kissoffools]

I love you tooooooo. :) Thanks for reading bbgirl.
