I love this story every time I read it, over and over...I got my sister to read it and now she's not so against people who aren't like she is. Thanks for the beautiful story, Cyndi.

I am bisexual, but have not " come out" yet simply because of people like these Andalites! It is very easy for a reader to identify with the characters, and the ending just left me speechless. Brilliant work!

Where to begin? Well, maybe with 'That was one of the best things I've ever read' and 'Stupid biased people' and "Great job on the plot, grammar, spelling, and punctuation!'

I was already quite open-minded, but this changed me for days after I read it. (Sorry I didn't review sooner-I've never been computer-smart, and it took me a few days (years) just to figure out how to review.)

My parents are a bit biased-gays and other people who are 'different' seem to sort of gross them out. I'm not like that, and this story proves that I'm not the only one. (Most of the people in my town seem to have something against everyone.)

Anyway, if Animorphs didn't exist (I've said this about many great fics) I'd beg you to publish this. And if there was some way I could convince you to do a second chapter somehow-maybe with Ellimist interferance-just tell me how!

Lovely story. Great work...hope to see more good work like this. :)

*Facepalm* Oh geeze. Where do I start?

I'm sorry, but this fic just made me laugh- it's not that it's really poorly written or anything, you just don't really seem to understand what's shown of Andalite culture. I really doubt sexuality is such a big deal to them, considering that (with morphing technology) they can switch genders all they want; I also doubt that, even if it WAS such a big deal, the oh-so-homophobic-and-offended Andalites would form a veritable lynch mob.

Another thing I notices was that you had Kevish and Bashul shake hands. Uh, how do I put this- BIG no. (Also, ow my brain.) And just a moment before, you had Bashul's mother touch tail-blades with him.

Saying "a homosexual" kinda makes it seem like Bashul is a diffrent class of Andalite, not oh-by-the-way-and-irrelevant-to-the-rest-of-his-personality gay. (I also don't think Andalites would use such a. . . human. . . turn of phrase. "Liking males" or "liking those of the same gender" may sound awkward, but at least it sounds like something an Andalite would say.)

"Two sparkling gems that serenaded me with wordless expression."

I have a feeling that line was supposed to be romantic, not gigglefit-inducing.

This story certainly isn't bad, you just. . . handled the Andalites as if they were Cliché Homophobic Human Hicks, not as a diffrent species from a diffrent world with a grazing-based social structure and an ideology of being advanced and accepting (even if they are patronizing and annoying in their acceptance). Your fic simply doesn't fit with canon, and (on top of that) reads like you really don't understand how homosexuality works, or if you do, don't know how to write it apart from overdone cliches.

Please, continue to write; Seeing as how this was written five years ago, you probably have improved by incredible amounts by now, if you're still an active writer; but if you ever go back to rewrite this, please take what I've said into consideration.

Aw... This made me cry. And at the end I was listening to the song Rain by Breaking Benjamin. It seems to go with it very well. That's so sad... *cries some more*

Freaking biased people.
That was depressing...
And to think, people are out there that are LIKE that. People that hate people because they're homosexual.
That. Is. So. Dang. LOW.
Very good portrayal of them, and it changed me, even if I already was open-minded about it.
Icing :P
Very well written.

*blinks* I've never had anything to do with Animorphs before, so that threw me off a bit, but DAMN. Strong/powerful is right, for this story. This will be one of those things stuck in my head for a week. It's sad but good. Just, damn. It's haunting.
