awesome

beautiful.
concept.

You know, this is the first story of yours I read. I think I found it in someone's favorites and I liked it enough to bookmark it. I remember, maybe the fourth or fifth time I read this, being all "This is weird. Why did I bookmark it?"

And then I would finish it and remember that, oh yeah, it's your character dynamics that sucked me in. Like, I never read Saiyuki fic before I read yours, but I did because you're that good. Because you make reading your characters interacting a pleasure to read.

It's amazing, what you do.

awesome story, if only somewhat confusing with this witch stuff. The plot could have used some more depth so we had more time to learn about the magic the witches wield, and all the positions that come with it. But you did great with only three chapters to work with, all things considered. If you do a sequel to this one, I'll be sure to read it.

This is awesome. If you write more, I look forward to it.

I love this story

ahhhhhh everytime I see a fic of yours that makes me think, not to my taste, your writing makes me change me mind

ah fuck this getting craxy

oh man kakashi is going to flip

I regret my earlier suspicion the final enemy would be a woman - I was thrown off by the fact that you use the term witch for both male and female characters :) I apologize.

You probably could have written it way longer, expanding on Obito's loneliness, his and Kakashi's fight, both their emotional states, his time with Madara, his and Rin's time with Madara and teir final escape and many more things for chapters and chapters. I have to say, I really liked this three-chapter-setup: it was short, focussed on the most important things and emotions, and left so much more room for imagination! That way, Kakashi, Obito and Rin became much more real to me.

My favorite scenes:
- Obito undressing and Rin ordering Kakashi to keep his eyes on the road
- Kakashi driving
- Obito and Rin's system for dealing with a host of revenants
- the way you go and make even the enemy's reason for fighting and killing be something I can, if not condone, at least understand
- Kakashi controlling electricity and earth, and Rin and Obito controlling almost everything
- The way Hidan and Kazuku were revealed, slowly and with their own painful significance
- Further hints at the Academy, Madara and the other "students"
- The idea of Zabuza behind a steering wheel
- Rin the superhero, with her magic bullets, and the fact that Kakashi wants them, too
- Obito's fiery way of dealing with revenants
- Obito teleporting, because hey, it's incredibly cool!
- Kakashi reciting Shakespeare. Because really, what's a sonnet! *falls off her chair laughing*
- Obito and Rin using the name of the goddess of hearth fires (and witchcraft, and many more things)
- Kakashi's confession, and how real he is in this story of yours. Not someone who hides his true feelings - at least not from those he loves. Also, when he explained he thought Obito and Rin had died - that part was beautiful. (Though it was in the last chapter, I know, I just forgot to mention it there.)
- The ending.

Of course, the ending. I love the little code phrase you've given Rin and Obito, and also the way Kakashi picks it up easily and they let him. They do belong together, in the end, the Chain and the Blade and their protector. Because while I know Rin and Obito are strong enough to protect themselves, I'm sure Kakashi will still protect them, in a way. It's what he does, I think.

Thank you for another beautiful, well-written, intriguing, plot-wise amazing story! Thank you for sharing it here.

Forward. Eyes on the horizon, and keep walking!

Wow, this chapter sure was a fast read! Though probably (I didn't check!) not much shorter or longer than the first chapter, it just seemed to fly by. I think it's something about the topic, and the reunion.

Obito and Kakashi.

I had the feeling you'd let them approach their former relationship and their current status more or less as friends, and it would have given my quite a surprise. But Kakashi, of course, had to put all the cards on the table. I really like the way you write him here: focused, dedicated, brilliant, clear-cut and straight-edged. He does what he thinks is necessary, says what he means and shows his feelings in a way that allow for no misinterpretion. While especially the latter character trait might differ from his original character (I think), I like it all the more. No subterfuge, no misdirection. Just straight out. As usual, you hid the backstory within the plot, quick and strong and tragic. From what I've read so far, I can already put together an image of what happened, and why.

The Academy, Madara, his education and his ideals and his end were very interesting, as well. I wouldn't even need so much more information, knowing this alone. You build your stories on solid fundaments, but they're not always visible at first glance and especially not labelled. That's what makes it fun to read them.

So.

Let's go hunting!

I wonder who this mysterious summoner is? I'm guessing a woman, from the summary, but you never know! :)

Aaaand it only took me the better part of a week to come to read this! Yay! :)

I don't know whether the ideas present in this new story of yours are based on another fandom or on the idea of witch craft itself but as usual, I like the premises you set, the world you draw out and the story you have started to tell here. Your Obito always is great, and I like the way you characterize Rin, as well. And Kakashi, of course!

There were so many little details in here I don't really know where to start. The rule of three, for example, and the information on the revenants (zombies, yeah!). The way you introduced the idea of a paranormal investigation squad with all its different branches. And they even have desks and paperwork! *laugh* That was a great idea. How usual magic occurrences are in this world, so normal they are noted down and filed away. The Chain and Blade pairing was particularly interesting, not only because Rin and Obito, respectively, form such a team. The implications of what being a Blade means to the people, and to Obito, as a blade, himself. The methods of investigation and of fighting, too. The side characters - there they were again, Kotetsu and Izumo! And Kurenai, too. I puzzled a bit over the blonde girl but decided there was no need to read into it (or, into her identity) too much. Obito's history - the family part, the Madara part. Rin's friendship, and the way they saved each other. It was fun reading about it here, and I'm sure there will be more interesting stuff to follow!

And then... *drumroll* enter Kakashi!

Another very, yver good idea, complete with an intriguing plot, beautiful little and larger details, great characters and a lot of fun. I'm off to chapter two!

love it great job

nooooooo don't listen to the people who tell you how to write!

honestly i find it amusing that i read more of your fanfiction than i do actual books, but i love your bordering-on-purple prose style so much that i can't find it in me to regret it
so please please please keep writing and don't worry because you'll always have readers like me that just devour everything you write regardless of what it is or how much there is :')

This is really awesome!
