Over 10 years later and this fic still SLAPS.

Awawawa kind of had a feeling when he asked whether she doesn’t fear him ;A; coming from him that’s practically a death sentence lol. Aaadhakaa sigh still wanna hug him though... :( Poor Dora, I kind of grew to like her, but she got too careless in the end.

fjafakgdhkwdqkf AAAA SO CUTEEEE my reaction whenever he does something apparently OoC and adorable, like feeding the pigeon and poking the thermos nervously aaa (**)

I really don’t know why, but as Dora herself said, the want to pet and hug him is overwhelming! Must-care-for-helpless-puppy-of-a-man ahsgak must pet must love must protecc

Of... course anyone wouldn’t take it well if you told them that though. Especially villians with ego, eheheh. So Dora did some good thinking (?) there. Though I wonder if the can and thermos didn’t cause a concussion or something, those things are pretty heavy, ow...

AAA HE LEFT A NOTE \(/)\

This story is igniting feels I did not know existed before, lol

*shudders*
Good ending.

Oh Squishy, your paranoia amuses us readers.

I love that final line.

The first thing I did after reading the ending was curl into a ball and cry, "Why would you DO that!?"

You did a really excellent job, setting up this "love" story and then absolutely shattering my expectations and hopes. Honestly, I feel a bit silly-which is a good thing! On the whole, the story is excellent. Props to you!

Oh. I didn't see that coming! This is fantastic. XD

Haha poor Dr Crane is SO confused. *smirks* You write him brilliantly, by the way.

Oh my goodness, this is so sweet!

Crane you son of a bitch.
This ending was perfect, I can't believe I didn't realise it was going to happen but still, that only reflects your talent as a writer. Great work.

This was AWESOME.

The ending... I was not at all disappointed by it, but was greatly delighted instead - with Dr. Crane's true nature revealed and especially when we were shown the fates of those pigeons he "fed". I must admit, foolish as I must sound, I could really sympathize with Dora, having developed sympathies for Dr. Jonathan Crane myself out of romantic admiration. If I had any sense of wisdom, I would perceive this work as a cautionary tale for hopeless romantics such as myself who fall for the bad guys, but instead of inspiring fear from me, all I can express is delight. I loved this piece, the ending was delightful, I must congratulate you, truly.

This truly is wonderful. Just like Scarecrow lulling her into a false sense of security, you did the same to us, making us think just maybe he would let this continue. I really wasn't expecting the end, but I really do like it. It is the most logical way something like this would end, because he IS a scientist, and isn't interested in crazed fans in love with him. There are so many stories out there where the villains somehow change to love so and so, but that isn't really all that logical at all. And I love how Dora KNOWS the thoughts she's entertaining aren't sane or very healthy, but can't stop herself. It is perfect because that is how people work.

You have wonderfully captured the character and mindset of someone in her position, and I think you have truly captured Scarecrow/Crane's personality and the way he thinks.

You had me at, less oregano this time... It's perfect!
