Reviews for Deficiency
Menea111 chapter 1 . 9/12/2011
Love this story! I really like how you portrayed Muraki and his relationship with Ukyo, the way he loves her and want her in a creepy way at the same time. I love this couple, so I like it when someone write so well about them.

Tsuzuki and Hisoka are so cute together! It's so like Hisoka to hid those things from Tsuzuki. I like the fact they are not too OOC.
Mari chapter 1 . 2/8/2009
Oh, man. Poor Hisoka. You should know that I am really bad at writing reviews unless those reviews are pointing out problems with a story, so don't take the inevitable shortness of this as implying mediocrity or something. D

I love how much research obviously went into this. Kaposi's Sarcoma. Oh my god.

I feel so much worse for Hisoka when he's HIV positive as opposed to just being cursed. Damn. The only good thing I can see in that is that hopefully HIV can eventually be cured, whereas depending on how you interpret the curse he might be stuck with it for all of eternity.

Muraki officially needs to be shot. :3

I'm surprised Tsuzuki wasn't informed about Hisoka's infection prior to their partnership, though. O_O
Tuli-Susi chapter 1 . 3/14/2008
...wow...i really don't know what to say. Very educational as well, and it was dark and ... I really don't know how to describe it. I can't really say that it was nice or that I liked it since it was a little TOO dark and...profound? Would that word be applicable here? But it WAS very well written, especially switching between Hisoka and Muraki like that.

Oh, as serious as the fic was, one line that I coudln't help laughing at, and kida makes me ashamed to admit it:

“What happened to my perfect doll-baby, Kazutaka?”

“He was screwed by his brother, Mother.”

Maybe I'm just evil for finding that funny, but in a different story/context I think it would be. And I have the useless ability to look at lines/sentences separately
Eria chapter 1 . 1/9/2008
... I'm completely shocked at the originality and depth and characterization and the crazy amount of time you must have spent thinking things through. Shocked in a good way. My stomach's cramping in equal parts of revulsion and horror at Hisoka's plight and Kazutaka's incestuous affairs and everything else. The emotion you've conveyed is astonishing. Thanks for the great read.
Sir Gawain of Camelot chapter 1 . 8/25/2007
Ek. HIV is a terrible thing.

But... uhm... In Devil's Trill. Tsuzuki - well, really the demon, but while he was in Tsuzuki's body - he eats some of Hisoka's blood. And while I know there are enzymes or something in syliva that counteract the pathogens, I don't think they work that well. Oh, but he's immune. The lucky dog. One of the few. Funny shaped receptor proteins. Or something like that. Now, I'm wondering. Since the HIV virus can't get into the cell, will the white blood cells engulf them and digest them, making Tsuzuki not a carrier anymore?

Wait... After he was blasted, and their blood mixed, it would take at least three months to tell if he were infected or not. Was it three months later that Watari took the blood?

I'm curious what the whole history of Muraki was based on. According to the anime, Muraki's history with Saki is very different. Saki being hemophilic, and getting HIV through transfusion, and even passing that on to Muraki doesn't contradict canon at all, but the parts after that do.
SKIN READY chapter 1 . 8/25/2007
Okay, I want to say that this story ia ABSOLUTELY amazing! I read it at ten in the morning yesterday and haven't stopped thinking about it since then. (I had to read it again today... because that's what I do...)

I once wondered why no one had thought that MAYBE Muraki had given Hisoka some sort of diesase, but I've never seen any stories about it.

I was really confused at first, though, when it suddenly switched to info on Muraki's past... but I figured it out soon enough...

I think this story could be continued, but I saw the word 'complete' above it. *cries*

I. Love. This. Story.!.

(And now, I want more... *beings to sob*
Calenmarwen chapter 1 . 8/20/2007
This was an incredible idea you worked with here. It fits so well, I really liked what you did with it. Sad and shocking but brilliantly written. Well done!
Eternity's Heir chapter 1 . 8/12/2007

~EH~
Chrono21 chapter 1 . 8/10/2007
Me: Whoa. Just... whoa. You really blew me out of the water with this one, Luna.

Muse: -leans back in chair reading newspaper- You never thought of the possibility of Hisoka having HIV?

Me: Well, no... I'm a nerd, okay?

Muse: No freakin' duh.

Me: But even though this fic BLEW MY MIND, I really liked it. (I use CAP LOCK since I can't use italics here.)

Muse: You're a masochist, you know that?

Me: -sarcastic- No freakin' duh. Though to be honest, I really didn't read the Muraki parts as thoroughly because... well, I hate Muraki.

Muse: But I did. He really had a sick childhood, didn't he?

Me: Yup. Ooh, but here's an idea; since Tsu was immune to HIV, any chance that Watari could create a vaccine from his blood? Or more specifically, a temporary antidote, so that if he did make a vaccine it would work while the temporary antidote was in effect?

Muse: You're really tryin' hard to make yourself feel better, aren't ya?

Me: Yeah...
