Wow. . . that was really. . . just. . . wow. It's even more astonishing, how good it was, because of its length. Love it. :-)

Another great piece. What can I say?

:)

...And that word is love. The shortest stories often pack the most oomph, and this is one of them. Just a vignette, but it says more than than a story ten times its length.

"Love"

Has to be. The single perfect word.

Truly lovely piece, stemming from a heartwrenching and yet also somehow lovely movie.

Wow... I like this piece. Very nice.

wonderful! you captured Joe's personality perfectly!

Well, well...look what I found, and right where I can write a review! Beautiful. Fantastic capture of Joe's speech patterns, and his coming to terms with the conflict of living outside his programming. Is there more somewhere?

This was very nice.

Actually, the word I had in mind was "love". _

'friend' 'human' What's the word? Very nice! Joe was my favorite character!

I like_ I think there are like...2 Joe fics out here in ffn. I personally thought he was the most interesting character of the bunch! Plus...Jude Law. Do I need to say more? ::drools:: Anyways, excellent fic, and I look forward to more, if there ever will be any : )

Excellent, intriguing story. Eloquently captures the significance of a simple gesture. Write more soon!

wow...that was really good. glad to see some AI fic around here, especially one about joe. i always thought he needed some more story. anyway, please, please write more.

it was about damn TIME someone wrote about that spectacular film! and this was very well written...i LOVED it! good job portraying joe's emotions(mecha, that is) even thought he doesnt have them, it seems as though the word he is looking for IS emotion, a sense of need to another being, companionship. am i on the right tracks?

This is a great story! So much of who we are and what we do comes from how people expect us to act. Joe interacting with David is an excellent example. Continue the good work!
