I was shrieking "What" over and over at my computer. I mean, I'm happy for Konan and Nagato, I am, but what is happening with Ino and Shikamaru? They kind of just made me sob like a baby, red nosed and swollen eyed. I honestly need to know about where they end, I hope you write their story.

Well done for persevering with this story, personally I didn't finish reading it but, and there is a but, before you judge me, the only reason I didn't was because I don't like reading hurt/comfort but your story was the only one for Nagato and Konan that was complete.
However, I am so glad that I read what I did of your story because you are a very talented writer and don't give up on it!
I hope next time you might do a happier story for this and I will personally be looking forward to it.
Keep it up!

I would just like to say that this story is so good! The story line and execution both impeccable.

Myself personally don't want to see Konan and Nagato get back together.

I mean the nerve of him literally right after his reconcile if Konan he turns around and sleeps with her again. In chapter 10 he actually has the audacity to say that he's disappointed with Konan. Last time I checked she wasn't the one sleeping around( I know it was an 'open relationship' but considering their history together you think that will hold some merit) and after he proclaims his so called loved he cheats on her again.

If Ino does visit Konan I hope she does mention her second one night stand that happen after the reconcile. It wouldn't be right for her not to find out.

I believe some fathers and mothers have the right to deny the other of a relationship of their children. I don't believe in second chances in those type of situations. If I had a wife and she cheated on me I will divorce her in a heartbeat and take my children with me. The moment she cheated she forfeited that right. If the mother/father loved their children as they would claim then they shouldn't have committed that act if they were in a loving relationship( Even if the relationship may have been strained at that point having sex someone else is not the answer)

I wouldn't want someone like that influencing my children and will give them the wrong views about relationships, morals,self respect and love.

I will tell my children the truth on why we are no longer together. I belief that for a family to be way more close knit if they didn't keep secrets from one another( They have the right to know).
