Wow, I can't guess how many years it's been since I read this for the first time (probably closer to ten than five, though) and I guess I never left a review? You probably don't even read these anymore, but I'm still here to leave them. Basically, this one is still super cute. It's a very astute observation that, well, Ash does try to drown a lot. And of course Misty would take issue with that! I love playing with the little things like that in the anime and, well, the shipping just sweetens the deal. It's super simple, but well executed. Good job!

This was soo cute! I honestly burst into giggles when misty told him not to put on his hat, like how he likes to see misty with her hair downXD

Amazing !

Oh, no hair tie for Ash, and no hat for M9isty, eh? Fair enough... Haha! Cute fic! Love it! AAML forever!

So cute xD. In that one episode he really did love her hair down xD.

I know you posted this about six years ago, but it was really good. I loved it.

Great fic! I love the concept of it and you did a great job!

Aw, this was so cute! And very nicely written! Great work!

I love this story.

Cant tell you how often I've reread it.

Still utterly brilliant and sweet.

"Ash felt the heat in his face that accompanied a blush; hoped she didn’t notice it. A little bit of him hoped she did." -Perfectly epitomizes that feeling of having a crush and wanting them to know but also not. Super charming, and mad cute with their hair.

And the sandslash bit. Which, props for it being a sandslash, as the word itself has a very musical quality and worked well with the feel of teh story.

Wonderful work :)

Sorry about that wrong upgrade but i kind of like it

I LOVE IT!'

and thats all i have to say

This is a great story! It was romantic and funny at the same time, a masterpiece. I hope you continue to make more stories like this soon!

sincerely,

It was so cute. I love how Ash took her hair tie.

Beautiful story.

Not to mushy, not too rigid. Very sweet without giving me a cavity. Nicely done.

Holy cow. One of the best pieces I've read in my ventures here. The first line was a perfect choice. And the ending? Even better. You are amazing. I think a lot of people feel that way about Misty- she looks so pretty with her hair down, and yet, she rarely does that.

Who would have thought that she liked Ash's hair without a hat on it? (Though, there are a couple coworkers of mine I would LOVE to see without their hats on. They're so paranoid, they'll even shove you if you touch their hat. Good thing Ash's not that way!)

Good work! I really, really enjoyed this. It's 11:30, now, though, and I've gotta get up at 4:30 (might get up earlier, though). I hate getting up so early! Stupid job! (Haha)

Keep it up!
