Well... I only started reading this story yesterday (after reading Awakening), so I'm not one of those loyal readers who waited six years for chapter 14, but I am now one prepared to wait that long.

Please don't let me wait that long!I find it really interesting just how much Lacus' presence and the White Frame change everything. Beginning with Athrun not knowing who he's fighting, which really impacts his character development in my opinion, and Flay... Just Flay. I hate Flay in Gundam Seed. I also really like your Flay so far.

I also like all the other characters you've brought into this (both your OC's and those created by others) and I'm really looking forward to seeing the Archangel Crew's reaction when everything with Lacus and Zodiac is finally revealed.

I also hope you find a new job soon and that you'll still have time and energy to continue this story.

good story please continue soon

1 old guy tripped himself up and was only "casualty" in attack on town.
Mu says there are many wounded people LOL
Keep your own story straight, instead of just typing in quotes from Anime xD

Lacus and Lily are bisexual...
So Lily is one time lesbian, no males in sight.
And Lacus ever had eyes to Kira, no girls in sight LOL
Just barrelled trough, just waat? xD

Ive recently decided to give this story a read through, a long time ago i was reading the original version but the op oc-ness in it really dragged it down in my opinion. this redux version on the contrary is far superior, the new characters give it a breathe of fresh air and whole new perspectives to view things from and its a welcome change.

I do love that you give flay more to do than to just be the whiny manipulative bitch that turns kira into an attack dog, a very welcome change. Inversely, and you already did bring it up yourself, you do tend to rag on cagahli quite a bit, yea shes brash and hot headed, but at this point she serves no purpose to the crew other than a maguffin into orb, where in i do hope that you eventually turn her into the leader she has the potential to be.

Now cagahlli having nothing to do brings me up to athrun, another seeming in the shadows character here, likewise he has nothing to contribute at the moment, but unlike cagahli you've kept him out of view to potentially set up plot points behind the scenes.

And speaking of behind the scenes I love Lily and her motivations, although i am a little confused as to her character in general, She's seigle's daughter but at the same time Lacus's narative stated that they had the same mother but different fathers and so that bit of a paradox befuddles me. The Zodiac seemingly playing the role of the Clyne Faction makes far more sense in a story sense, having established routes from the get go and not just appearing when a pop idol hands over a nuclear wmd to a guy she crushes on.

Lastly, Kira and Lacus, the two that i love in this story. With the newest chapter of 14, we get a glimpse of Flay's growing attachment to Kira, and her growing friendship with Lacus. I wonder if Lacus will begin to notice her fellow female pilots attraction to her best friend/crush and if she does, will she begin to get possessive? questions questions, Kira at least in your story doesnt seem to show any emotion towards the fairer sex, which maybe he does have feelings? maybe he keeps himself in check because of the forced engagement? Its clear the two are extremely close, harkening back to the established promise very early in the story "'wherever you go, I go. Wherever I go, I'll take you with me." that promise might be a crux to have Lacus go on the defensive over him when it comes to Flay. And while I wouldn't want to break this new dynamic between the three core characters, I do kind of want to see Lacus lay down the law (It's her kira, she found him first xD) or that sort of thing. But i dont want to see a traumatized kira. In the original show it broke my heart watching kira realize that the girl he's been crushing on for ages had been toying with and manipulating him turning him into something he wasn't, a murderer, even though she eventually does come around, but narrative wise "too late," I can only imagine how much work Lacus had to put into just getting him to trust her with his shattered heart, yet alone mend it. I really did enjoy it here at the end of 14, Kira accidently slip up on his unintentional mask for everyone to hear and so instictively Lacus went to him as soon as she saw him, i loved that. Her knight, His healer.

thats enough rambling on my part, i love to hear your thoughts on my..er thoughts ;
but all in all, im very glad i decided to give the redux a look, its been an incredible read.

Great chapter . Worth the wait, and I certainly won't complain if we get a slightly faster update pace .

Blinks. Reads the last line again and blinks again before shrugging. As you wish.

READY!

AIM!

FIR-!

Wait! Wait!

What?

No killing the author. Especially one that is quite good. If you do then we won't get any more of this story and that would be bad.

Really?

Yes very bad. Anyways we should be thankful that she finally came through for us and posted a new chapter for this story. So go ahead and thank her for posting.

But, what if the next chapter takes another six years.

Then you have to wait for it.

Oh very well. Thank you for posting a new chapter for this wonderfil story Maileesaeya and I cannot wait for the next story. Glad to see you back in the world of Gundam.

Was just thinking of this story yesterday, wake up for work and tada a wild update appears. Made my day

I'm just glad your back but also NON-RACIST FLAY IS A WELCOME CHANGE.

I'm honestly surprised to see this story updated. I was sure you'd given up on the Gundam franchise.

Don't be to hard on yourself regarding this chapter, overall it was pretty good. I'm hoping that Cagalli gets some more character development, but that's mostly due to me liking her overall.

As far as the combat here, I really like the way you dealt with the GOOhNs, and the whole dip the Valiant in the water to cool it off, though I don't think that's something that should be done repeatedly as I think it would stress the metal.

Welcome back... good update... I am happy that you are writing again... keep up the good work and I can't wait to see what happens in the next chapter...

You're back! :D

random question, which is the g suit?

Excellent update and thank you for continuing the story thank you

I have seen longer times between story updates. You're in the clear. I enjoyed the chapter and I'm glad to see this back.

Now if only you hadn't pulled your version of Akatsuki's Retelling. I loved that fic.
