Hm, wonder if that's really Leia? Her text seems off, especially given the circumstances. Loved this intimate look at Gaius and how much he cares for his family. So glad you updated!
Good work, looking forward to the next chapter!

just wanted to drop a note that I enjoyed this. it made me want to play the two Xillias all over again; the characters were well written. Also: I have always been #teamalvin and loved his story arch. Thanks again!

Damn you...another fanfiction I've become addicted to. Jokes aside, this is by far my favourite one yet. Keep up the good work!

I'm so glad Gaius found her! Your take on him intrigues me because even though he cares about his subjects as a king, he doesn't allow people to become close or intimate. He doesn't want to admit just how much Leia is like a sister to him and he won't let her be hurt again.
Rieze Maxia is the safest place for her because each member of the group holds a respected place there.
Can't wait to see what happens next! Great work, looking forward to the next chapter!

I never knew I wanted this ship until you wrote it~

Oh boy, que misunderstandings and a spoiled princess, lol. That chick doesn't realize the people who care about both of them - namely Gaius - and the king won't take kindly to anyone messing with Leia. Gaius is smart - he'll figure it out. Both Alvin and Leia were precious in this chapter, though I'm concerned about whatever Jude plans to do. You send a lot of balls into the air here and I'm wondering how they're going to land, lol. Good work building tension! Looking forward to the next chapter!

So glad to see you updated. I can't wait to see how Leia and Alvin interact after he left her on the bed crying.

Every few months, I check back in on this, and it’s always updated. I love you so much for this story! x3

The two of them as a couple crack me up. They're similar enough to make their interactions hilarious while different enough to make the story interesting. I understand where both are coming from and hopefully they can find a way to negotiate a relationship. So glad Leia's okay and that no one forgot her! Also, I don't think Jude is a jerk so much as a kid who's moving ungracefully into adulthood. Great chapter, looking forward to the next one!

Finally, a Leia and Alvin moment! I am excited to read more where their relationship might be going.

I was so happy to see this update! Poor Leia; none of the group would take the death of a friend well, but I forgot how close she'd become to Elle and Ludger... Wasn't expecting Milla to just leave, but then again she has lots to do as Maxwell. And poor Leia! I wonder who found her and how everyone will react being together for the first time in over a month in the hospital... Who will scold her the most, lol? Great work, looking forward to the next chapter!

So glad to see an update. At first I didn't know where you were going in thus chapter but it was all (mostly) put together right at the end. Good writing!

Getting pretty angsty up in here...

Writing quality is still good, but maybe you could consider using line breaks?

This story is so precious! You see Jude differently than I do, but that's okay - someone has to push them together, right? Any idea when this takes place in Xillia 2? Elle hasn't been mentioned is why I ask. Good stuff, can't wait for more!

I did not realize Alvin was that much older than most of the group! Never pictured a pairing between he and Leia, so I'm excited to see where this goes! Wonder if he still feels guilty about shooting her in Xillia... Looking forward to the next chapter!
